3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Grove Road, Stevenage, Hertfordshire SG1

A fine example of a thoughtfully extended, deceptively spacious, three bedroom semi-detached Victorian cottage enjoying a convenient location situated at the end of this desirable cul-de-sac within the heart of the Old Town, just a stone's throw from the historic High Street with the mainline railway station within a 15 minute walk.

The property benefits from a thoughtfully designed two-storey extension providing a most impressive open-plan kitchen/family/dining room featuring a sleek contemporary range of graphite grey fitted kitchen units extending to a matching island with stylish wooden effect floor tiles with underfloor heating, part-vaulted ceiling with a skylight window and a bank of double glazed patio doors opening to the rear garden. Comfortable lounge with feature fireplace and exposed cabinets and book shelving with a feature bay window whilst the welcoming reception hallway and modern fitted downstairs cloakroom/wc complete the ground floor accommodation. The first floor landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms and a modern family bathroom complete with a traditional white suite with period detailing.

The rear garden is a further highlight of the property, of excellent size, well maintained with paved terracing, level lawn whilst enjoying a southerly sunny aspect. Viewing is highly recommended.
