Versatile period property with annexe, paddock and countryside seclusion.
Nearly 2-acre mature plot with paddock and post-and-rail fencing
A substantial period home set on almost 2 acres, this early 19th-century property combines versatile family accommodation with practical equestrian outbuildings. The main house offers four double bedrooms, four reception rooms and an open-plan kitchen/breakfast/family room, while a self-contained one-bedroom annexe provides independent space for guests or rental income.
The grounds include two stables, a tack room, barn, paddock with post-and-rail fencing, mature gardens and two garages — ideal for small-holding or leisure riding. The situation in Lilley village brings countryside privacy yet remains around four miles from Hitchin, where trains reach London Kings Cross in about 29 minutes.
Buyers should note some legacy issues: the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, glazing dates are unspecified, and heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators. Broadband speeds are slow and council tax is described as quite expensive. These are practical considerations for anyone planning modernisation or long-term running-cost estimates.
Overall, the property will suit families or equestrian buyers seeking a characterful Georgian base with scope to update and personalise. The annexe and outbuildings add flexibility for ancillary income or multi-generational living, while the large plot offers future landscaping or functional improvements subject to planning and conservation constraints.
