Description

Sparrow Cottage presents a substantial opportunity for transformation, featuring four generously sized double bedrooms and set within an expansive plot of approximately 1.3 acres. The property is positioned slightly elevated from the main thoroughfare, providing a serene setting amidst the picturesque Hertfordshire countryside. Upon entering, one is welcomed into a spacious lounge characterized by its triple aspect windows, allowing ample natural light to illuminate the room. The lounge boasts an original working fireplace and French doors that open out onto the rear garden — an ideal spot for future outdoor enhancements. Adjacent to the lounge, a separate dining room and kitchen with existing eye and base level units offer a blank canvas for modernisation. The first floor accommodates all four double bedrooms along with a family bathroom. An airing cupboard on the landing provides additional storage space. The property also includes practical features like a downstairs cloakroom and a rear lobby/boot room leading to the garden and housing the boiler. Externally, access is granted via a grassy driveway leading to side parking, alongside two brick outbuildings that could serve various purposes post-refurbishment. The extensive gardens are currently laid to lawn but hold potential for landscaping or other developments. Located in Hare Street, this property benefits from local amenities including a village shop and pub, while being conveniently situated near larger towns like Buntingford which offers further shopping and recreational facilities. This cottage not only holds character but also promises significant investment potential for those looking to create their dream home in an idyllic setting.
