A substantial, freehold property in SG1 currently configured as two separate units — ground-floor offices and a one‑bedroom maisonette above. The building totals around 2,037 sq ft, retains period character including exposed brickwork and feature fireplaces, and sits on a decent plot with off-street parking and a large outbuilding used for storage.
This is a clear opportunity for an investor or developer: the layout allows retention of mixed commercial/residential income or conversion into one large detached dwelling (subject to any necessary consents). The upstairs maisonette is accessed via an external rear stair and offers a large reception with bay window, double bedroom, fitted kitchen and a bathroom with both corner bath and shower cubicle.
Practical points to note: the ground floor has been used as offices for many years, so some reconfiguration may be needed to return it to residential use. The property retains many original features but likely requires updating to modern standards. The site sits in an affluent area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, but local crime levels are above average.
For buyers seeking rental income, redevelopment potential or a period property to renovate, this versatile building provides significant scope. Local amenities, several well‑rated primary and secondary schools, and good transport links in Stevenage add to the appeal. Any purchaser should factor in conversion costs, potential planning or building regulation work, and security considerations given local crime statistics.
