4 bed detached house for sale

Whinbush Road, Hitchin, Hertfordshire SG5

Built circa 1929, this rarely available family home offers a truly unique opportunity to enhance and extend (STPP), with exceptional potential both within the main house and the substantial Victorian outbuilding, formerly a stable, at the rear of the plot. Offering around 1,000 sq ft of space over two floors, the outbuilding presents a wealth of possibilities for conversion, subject to the necessary permissions. One of the standout features of this property is its generous plot, especially given its prime location in the heart of Hitchin, just a short walk from the town centre, mainline station, and excellent schools. The current accommodation includes an entrance hall leading to a spacious living room with sliding doors opening onto the rear garden. A separate dining room connects via internal sliding doors to the kitchen/breakfast room, which includes a pantry and cloakroom. A bright garden room with power and electricity offers further access to the garden. Upstairs, there are four bedroom, two of which are generous doubles, along with a family bathroom and a separate WC. Externally, the front garden is laid to lawn with established shrubs and trees, while a concrete driveway offers off-road parking and extends to the outbuilding at the rear. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, with mature planting throughout. The large brick-built outbuilding/garage has power, lighting, and a versatile layout across two floors, making it ideal for a variety of uses. There is also a useful wooden shed/workshop. This is a rare chance to secure a home full of charm and future potential in a highly sought-after location.

Whinbush Road is a highly sought-after address, ideally positioned just a short stroll from Hitchin’s town centre, mainline station, and local amenities, and lies within the catchment for excellent schools.
