A fine example of a Victorian bay fronted extended three bedroom semi-detached cottage offering a deceptively spacious arrangement of accommodation set behind attractive brick and part-rendered elevations. Well-presented throughout, the property benefits further from an enchanting cottage style rear garden enjoying a private aspect backing onto allotments.
The accommodation has been considerably improved with the benefit of a two-storey rear extension in addition to a loft conversion providing a versatile arrangement of accommodation which now comprises a reception hallway, comfortable lounge with feature open fireplace and double glazed sash style bay window, dining room, modern fitted gloss kitchen/breakfast room, study/music room, first floor landing leading to two generous bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom with both a bath and a separate shower cubicle, with a staircase continuing to the third bedroom on the second floor. Further practical benefits include double glazing and gas fired central heating.
The property enjoys the benefit of a highly convenient location within this popular Old Town turning, just a short walk from the historic High Street with the mainline railway station beyond providing fast direct links to Kings Cross in approximately 23 minutes. Viewing highly recommended.
Location
Stevenage comprises both the New and Old Towns and is conveniently situated within easy access of the A1M offering easy access to London, the M25 and also to the North. Local road links provide access to adjacent towns including Hitchin, Letchworth, Baldock, Welwyn Garden City and Hertford. Stevenage is currently undergoing a £1billion Regeneration Plan. The initial plan will include the development covering 14.5 acres of the town centre and introducing 11 new buildings including residential, leisure, community, commercial and retail facilities. The Historic High Street in the Old Town offers a good selection of shops, cafés/restaurants, public houses, a Library and two Doctor’s Surgeries. In addition, the area is well served by Lister Hospital and a good selection of local primary and secondary schools. The New Town currently provides a large pedestrianised shopping centre and retail parks together with the Gordon Craig Theatre, David Lloyd Health Club, the Leisure Park (truncated)
