'West View', a four-bedroom Victorian detached house in Baldock complete with a historical internal well has been listed on the market for £850,000.
Still retaining its original features, the property, named after its view of wonderful evening sunsets, offers impressive living space, a spacious driveway, wrap-around gardens, and multiple historical aspects as described by estate agents Connells in Letchworth.
Located on North Road, Baldock, the house lies within a seven-minute walk from the Baldock Railway Station.
This makes it an excellent location for those needing to commute to London Kings Cross, a journey which takes approximately 37 minutes by train.
Additionally, Connells also states that across from the property is the Ivel Springs Nature Reserve, a protected Special Site of Scientific Interest.
This natural asset adds to the location's appeal by providing access to the Garden City Greenway, a popular cycle and walking route.
Internally, the house reverberates with Victorian splendour.
There is a boot room with original tiled flooring and stained-glass doors, while an entrance hall further displays the property's historical charms with original Victorian tiled flooring, a period timber staircase and a unique feature: an original, safely preserved well.
The rest of the interior consists of a large kitchen and breakfast room, three reception rooms including a 24ft lounge with two double-glazed sash bay-fronted windows, a study which has the potential to be converted into an additional bedroom, and a utility room.
Additionally, there are three bathrooms, one of which is on the ground floor.
On the upper floor, the estate agent points out four spacious bedrooms with the charm of original cast-iron fireplaces and wooden floors.
The two main bedrooms overlook the beauty of the Ivel Springs nature reserve, enhancing the overall aesthetic of these spaces.
Externally, the house has a wrap-around garden, which offers two patio areas and a potting shed.
The "spacious shingled driveway," as stated by the agent, provides ample parking space for several cars.
A hardstanding area has planning permission for a large outbuilding with foundations and base already laid, meaning it could cater to various expansion needs.
