3 bed end terrace house for sale

Kings Walden, Hitchin SG4

This beautiful end-of-terrace character cottage is a true gem, with its charming “chocolate box” exterior and wealth of original features including exposed beams, an impressive inglenook fireplace and a wood-burning stove. These period details blend effortlessly with modern touches, creating a home that feels both timeless and comfortable.

You enter into a welcoming kitchen/family room, a generous and sociable space centred around the striking inglenook fireplace. This room forms the heart of the home and offers plenty of space for both everyday living and entertaining. Just off the kitchen is a practical rear lobby, ideal for additional storage and keeping things neatly tucked away.

To the rear of the property is a spacious sitting/dining room, beautifully extended and flooded with natural light. Large windows frame views over the garden and towards the surrounding countryside, making this a wonderfully relaxing space to unwind.

Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and enjoys attractive views to the rear. The remaining bedrooms are equally generous and are all served by a modern family bathroom, finished to a good standard.

Outside, the property continues to impress. The front has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a large block-paved driveway providing off-road parking for several vehicles, secured by a wooden gate. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and complemented by well-stocked borders filled with a variety of plants, trees and shrubs. Several patio areas provide ideal spaces for outdoor dining and entertaining.

There are two highly versatile outbuildings on the property, both benefitting from connected power and lighting. The larger, located at the rear of the garden, is currently used as a gym but offers excellent flexibility for a variety of uses, all while enjoying stunning countryside views.
The second outbuilding, positioned closer to the house, is currently arranged as a home office, making it ideal for remote working.
The field bordering the house is home to grazing cows during the spring and summer months, adding to the property's rural charm.

Altogether, this is a delightful cottage that combines character, space and modern convenience in a truly picturesque setting.

The property is situated in the pretty hamlet of Ley Green, within the parish of Kings Walden. Less than half a mile away, Kings Walden offers a traditional country pub and a useful village post office/store and tea room, adding to the charm and convenience of this rural setting.
