Description

This delightful Victorian residence showcases a traditional brick façade complemented by ornate wrought iron railings and a charming gate, creating an inviting external appeal. Nestled in the desirable Lower Bengeo area, the property enjoys proximity to Hertford North Station, the town centre, and Hartham Common, along with being conveniently near the popular Millstream pub. Arranged over two levels, the interior features a balanced layout filled with natural light, benefiting from various thoughtful upgrades that enhance its historical charm while promoting modern living. The front-facing living room is warm and inviting, showcasing a characterful log burner as its centerpiece. The open-plan dining room and kitchen provide a sociable atmosphere, complete with practical understairs storage and direct access to the garden—a lovely feature for entertaining or relaxing outdoors. The kitchen boasts fitted units with functional surfaces and includes necessary spaces for appliances while enjoying side aspect windows as well as entry to the newly renovated ground floor bathroom. On the first floor, the main bedroom stands out with its beautiful cast iron fireplace and built-in wardrobes cleverly integrated into the chimney recesses. This level also contains two additional bedrooms that cater to various needs—be it family accommodations or home office space. The rear garden prioritizes low maintenance and has been designed with both leisure and practicality in mind; it includes a decked area for outdoor seating, a lawn section for relaxation, and ample storage provided by a large shed. Significant enhancements have already been made by the current owners to improve comfort and energy efficiency—this includes upgraded timber double-glazed sash windows at the front and refurbished original windows throughout. The ground floor has fully insulated suspended timber floors while preserving original pine floorboards, alongside a fresh bathroom installation. There remains substantial potential for future development, such as extending into the loft (subject to planning permissions), presenting an exciting opportunity for further enhancement of this already remarkable home. Overall, this property offers character, comfort, and significant scope for investment in one of Bengeo's most sought-after locations.
