A semi-detached Grade Two listed cottage in Hitchin which is reportedly 400 years old, is up for sale at £875,000.
Putterills, the estate agent handling the sale of the home on Woolgrove Road believes its "charm and character" has been preserved despite thoughtful modernisations over the centuries.
Nestled in a secluded 1/4-acre spot across from the family-friendly common of Walsworth, this Grade Two Listed property comes with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and three reception rooms.
It is praised for its cosy two inglenooks, a wood burner, and a generous kitchen.
A standout feature is the charming conservatory that adds a modern touch to the centuries-old home.
The home is associated with local heritage mentioned in the book: 'A Stroll Round the Old Village of Walsworth'.
All three bedrooms are complemented with ensuite facilities, adding a layer of comfort and luxury for potential occupants.
The property includes a generous enclosed garden and a barn-style double detached garage.
There is a driveway offering parking for multiple vehicles.
The home provides excellent commuter links to London with Hitchin’s mainline railway station within comfortable walking distance.
Hitchin is a vibrant town frequently noted as one of the UK’s best places to live.
Offering an array of shops, restaurants, pubs, leisure facilities, and well-regarded local schools, Hitchin also benefits from excellent road links, offering easy access to London, Cambridge, Peterborough, and proximate airports.
Putterills describes the opportunity to own such a characterful home in Hitchin as not one to be missed.
