Summary - 16, NORTH ROAD SG1 4AL
6 bed 3 bath Detached
Dual-purpose home with extensive gardens and workspace for family business.
- Six bedrooms across three storeys, multiple reception rooms
An imposing Victorian detached home set on over a third of an acre, this residence combines generous family accommodation with a substantial self-contained business suite. The main house offers six bedrooms across three floors, five reception rooms, high ceilings and many original period details such as ornate cornicing, sash-style windows and original flooring. Its scale, layout and garden make it well suited to a large household that also needs space for home-based business operations.
The adjoining wing comprises ground-floor workshops, a large meeting room and three air-conditioned first-floor offices with staff kitchen and WC facilities, offering immediate operational use or rental income potential. A spacious double garage and a block-paved carriage driveway provide parking for several vehicles and potential conversion opportunities subject to consent.
Important practical points: the property sits in a city-centre area with very high recorded crime levels; buyers should factor this into security and insurance costs. Council tax is described as quite expensive, and tenure is currently stated as unknown. While the house benefits from double-glazed sash windows and gas central heating, the size and age of the property mean there is clear scope — and likely cost — for modernisation to meet contemporary family or commercial standards.
Viewings are recommended for those seeking a rare dual-purpose period property in Old Town Stevenage, especially families or owner-occupier businesses looking for an established, characterful base with substantial grounds and flexible internal space.
