Summary - 60, Alleyns Road SG1 3PP
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Chain-free two-bedroom home with large private garden and project potential.
Double-fronted Victorian cottage with period features
A double-fronted Victorian cottage in Stevenage Old Town, offered chain free and ready for updating. The house retains period character—sash windows, original fireplaces and a bay window—while recent electrical work includes a new consumer unit and added USB sockets. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators.
The layout provides two reception rooms, a ground-floor bathroom and two double bedrooms upstairs, with scope to reconfigure or extend (subject to consents). A standout feature is the unusually large private rear garden (circa 220 sq m) that receives good sun and gives space rare for cottages on this road.
Practical drawbacks are clear: the property needs renovation and modernisation throughout, walls are assumed to be solid brick with no insulation, and the area records higher local crime levels. Buyers should budget for refurbishment, possible insulation work and any permitted-development or planning costs for extensions.
This home suits a buyer seeking period character close to the high street and mainline station, who wants a project with strong garden space and potential to add value. Nearby schools are well-rated and local amenities are within walking distance.
