Description

Nestled within the sought-after Poets estate, this detached family residence offers an abundance of space and opportunities for renovation. With a welcoming entrance hall that leads to a sizeable 24-foot kitchen/diner, the potential for modernisation is evident. The kitchen features ample shaker-style cabinetry complemented by sleek black countertops and essential appliances including a double Neff oven and gas hob. Natural light flows in through dual windows and glass doors that connect the kitchen to the conservatory, which serves as a versatile family space perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. The conservatory's 24-foot width provides glorious views of the garden and opens onto a patio for seamless indoor-outdoor living. The main sitting room adjacent to the conservatory is spacious and ideal for hosting. A flexible front room currently functioning as an office can easily be transformed into various other uses such as a playroom or studio. The first floor comprises four generously sized double bedrooms, ensuring comfort and privacy, with the principal bedroom benefiting from an ensuite shower room. A stylish family bathroom completes this level. Outdoors, the private garden offers a lawn area surrounded by established borders, suitable for further landscaping or enhancements. The property also features approved planning permission (Ref: 25/02422/FPH) for part two-storey and single-storey extensions – presenting an excellent opportunity to add significant value through further development. Located in Hitchin, well-regarded for its transport links to London and Cambridge, this property is not just about spacious living; it’s about investment potential in a desirable community with thriving local amenities.
