Property Insight: To say this three-bedroom, semi-detached 1930s family home needs a bit of attention would be an understatement.  However, it presents a dream opportunity for anyone looking for a serious renovation project in Hitchin (which are few and far between).  With scope to extend (subject to planning permission) and a 230ft garden, this neglected gem is just waiting to be transformed a stunning family home. The exterior of the property is typical of the era, with large bay windows (double-glazed) and a front garden set substantially back from the road.  The entrance hall is a good size and leads off to the other downstairs rooms.  The kitchen is situated at the back of the house with direct access to the garden.  Currently in need of total refurbishment, this could be a fantastic space if extended to create a large kitchen/family room.  The sitting room and dining room are both well-proportioned, bright rooms.  A bay window introduces plenty of natural light into the sitting room and the dining room benefits from large French doors leading out to the patio.  With a bit of imagination, you can see this would be a great space for a family to enjoy once renovated.  Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom.  Two of the bedrooms are well-proportioned doubles, one with extra built-in wardrobe space and the other benefiting from a lovely bay window.  The third bedroom is a single which would also make a good nursery, home office or perhaps a craft room.  The family bathroom also needs modernising (although pink suites are currently making a comeback) but it’s a bright room with a good amount of space. Outside, there is a patio to the rear of the house which leads on to the 230ft garden.  Currently rather overgrown, this really could be an amazing asset once restored and landscaped, with plenty of space for extending the house (subject to planning permission) and even adding an outside home office or gym – the possibilities are huge! It does take a little imagination to see the great potential in this property, but we’ve no doubt that the right buyer will restore it to a fantastic family home once more.
