This recently renovated Victorian terraced cottage blends period character with a contemporary finish, creating a cosy commuter home in the heart of Hitchin. The interior feels bright and welcoming: open-plan dining and sitting rooms with wooden floors, an exposed and opened stairwell for extra light, and a log burner that provides a strong focal point for winter evenings.
Upstairs offers three well-proportioned double bedrooms and a single family bathroom — all presented in neutral decor and plush carpeting. The compact but well-equipped kitchen includes a range cooker and garden access, while a south-facing, low-maintenance decked and shingled garden offers private outdoor space with rear gate access.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for commuters and home workers. The location is a major selling point: about 0.6 miles to Hitchin station, close to well-regarded schools and local amenities, including a new Sainsbury’s Local a five-minute walk away.
Important considerations: the house is small overall (approx. 805 sqft) with compact rooms and one bathroom, so families requiring extensive space should note the footprint. The building’s solid brick construction is typical of its era and is shown as having no insulated cavity (assumed), and the EPC is D. These factors may mean further insulation or energy improvements are desirable in time. Despite these limits, the property is well-presented and move-in ready, appealing to commuters, first-time buyers and those seeking a period home with modern convenience.
