A three-bedroom semi-detached house on Fairfield Way offering spacious outdoor space and clear refurbishment potential. The property sits on a noticeably large plot with a drive, gated side access and an outbuilding — practical for storage, workshop or garden projects. Good local schools, low crime and fast broadband make this a convenient family location; Hitchin station is about a 23-minute walk (1.1 miles).
Internally the house requires full modernisation throughout. The layout includes living room, kitchen with separate utility, three bedrooms and one family bathroom. The property is non-traditional pre‑reinforced concrete (PRC) construction and will require specialist consideration when planning structural works or mortgage arrangements.
Important legal and purchase notes: the property was previously council stock and is subject to an overage; the buyer must enter a deed of covenant with the council on completion and pay the council's costs of £500. Prospective purchasers should be prepared for a faster exchange and completion timetable and for refurbishment costs to make the house move‑ready.
This home suits first-time buyers or buy‑to‑let investors who can manage renovation or those wanting to redesign and add value. With sensible investment it offers scope to improve kerb appeal, modernise services and make the most of its large rear and side garden.
