Set in the quiet village of Little Wymondley, this Grade II listed two-bedroom end-of-terrace cottage blends period charm with practical living. The compact footprint and low ceilings retain an authentic cottage feel; rooms are cosy rather than expansive, suited to a couple, small family or downsizer wanting character close to Hitchin.
The house benefits from a private, east-facing garden and off-street parking. A former garage at the end of the garden has been converted into a treatment room and would work well as a home office, gym or hobby space. The fitted kitchen and living room are functional, and double glazing is already installed (pre-2002).
Buyers should note the property’s constraints: Grade II listed status will limit external and internal changes and could complicate alterations. The home is small (approximately 570 sq ft), built before 1900 with solid brick walls likely lacking cavity insulation, and it currently has an EPC rating of D. There is a recorded medium flood risk in the area; prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves via searches and insurance quotes.
This cottage sits within easy reach of Hitchin’s amenities and fast rail links to London and Cambridge, and local schools are highly regarded. For someone seeking a characterful village home with a usable garden and flexible outbuilding, this property offers a comfortable base with scope for sensitive updating — provided you accept the constraints of listed status and the modest internal space.
