Summary - 69, OLD PARK ROAD, HITCHIN SG5 2JT
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Walk to station and outstanding schools; scope to extend and modernise.
Chain-free three-bedroom Victorian semi-detached home
Chain-free and set a short walk from Hitchin town centre and station, this three-bedroom period home is a practical family purchase with scope to improve and extend (STPP). The property offers two receptions, a fitted kitchen, conservatory and a small rear garden with gated access to a single off-street parking space.
The house benefits from attractive Victorian features such as a front bay window and fireplaces, plus excellent local schooling within easy reach. Accommodation includes a bay-front lounge, dining room, three first-floor bedrooms and a loft room, making it flexible for growing families or buyers seeking rental income.
There are clear upgrade needs: the conservatory and loft windows are single glazed, the solid brick walls likely lack modern cavity insulation, and much of the interior would benefit from modernisation. Energy and comfort improvements (insulation, double glazing replacement where single glazed) would be sensible early works. Note the area crime statistic is recorded as very high; buyers should check local safety measures and consider security improvements.
Overall this is a town-centre property that will suit buyers wanting convenience, good schools and renovation potential. The size and plot are modest, so it particularly appeals to families seeking a compact, well-located home or investors targeting a centrally located rental with scope to add value.
