Description

This two-bedroom Victorian cottage situated in a sought-after residential area of Hitchin presents a compelling opportunity for renovation and personalisation. Positioned within close proximity to town amenities and transport links, including Hitchin train station offering direct connections to London and Cambridge, the property is ideal for both families and commuters. While some modernisation is required, there is considerable potential to enhance the living space, including the feasibility of extending the property (subject to planning permissions). The south-east facing rear garden offers a private outdoor area ripe for landscaping or further development. Inside, the ground floor features characterful elements such as exposed floorboards and brickwork, alongside a kitchen with potential for an upgrade. The upstairs includes two bedrooms with ample natural light and room for enhancements. This property not only accommodates immediate living needs but also opens avenues for future investment through renovation efforts.
