3 bed end terrace house for sale

Marymead Drive, Stevenage SG2

A chain-free property perfect for a family, with 974sqft of accommodation, potential to update and improve, as well as a mature garden and off-road parking – all on the doorstep of schools, shops and green spaces.

The Property

Whether you’re searching for a family home, your first buy, an investment property or somewhere you can put your own stamp on, 126 Marymead Drive is ideal. You can move in, make some simple cosmetic improvements and live here happily for years to come, or you can add real value by refurbishing and even extending (STPP).

The home currently offers 974sqft of accommodation in a more traditional layout. The ground floor includes a lounge connected to both the kitchen and a conservatory. Each space is large enough to be multi-use: The lounge could easily be divided into sitting and dining areas, while the conservatory is a useful extra room for work or play, entertaining or unwinding. The conservatory is bright from surrounding windows, and has heating for keeping it toasty during the colder months.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of storage and surfacing, a sink and drainer, and has gaps for a range oven and under-counter appliances. It benefits from two storage cupboards, one that would make sense as a pantry, the other handy for the hoover, etc. There’s ample capacity for a breakfast table or informal seating, and sliding doors open onto the deck for alfresco dining when the sun appears. Extending over the deck footprint (STPP) would give you the option to create open-plan space if preferred.

To the first floor are three bedrooms and a bathroom. All three bedrooms are a good size, with two doubles and a decent single. Bedroom one is plenty big enough for a bank of wardrobes, and bedroom two has a deep built-in cupboard. There’s more storage to an airing cupboard on the landing, and this houses the boiler, installed just last year.

The bathroom is fitted in a three-piece white suite, with a panelled bath with a shower over and a glass screen. If you’d like a cloakroom for guests, the cupboard in the hall could likely be converted.

The Plot

126 Marymead Drive sits on a south-east-facing plot. To the front is a block-paved driveway for two cars (with further parking on the road if needed), and to the rear is a lovely garden. This is mostly lawned, with the deck from the kitchen and conservatory, and mature borders of varied plants and trees. At the back of the garden is space for sheds and a summerhouse. This area is sheltered and shaded by tall trees, and the garden backs onto woodland for even leafier outlooks.

The Position

Families are in a superb spot at Marymead Drive. There’s Ofsted ‘Good’ schooling within easy walking distance, a doctors surgery down the road, supermarkets a short drive away, plus a parade of shops on the doorstep. The parade caters to everyday needs, with a Co-op, a Post Office and a pharmacy, as well as takeaways and a wine shop. The woodland behind the house is great for daily dog walks and is accessed 100m from the front door.

Stevenage is popular with families as there’s so much to do, for all ages and interests – from eating and entertainment at Stevenage Leisure Park, to retail at 9Yards/Roaring Meg, to fresh air and sports facilities at Shephalbury Park just 300m from the address. There’s focus on sports here: The local football team is in League One, you can learn to sail at Fairlands Valley Park, and Ridlins Stadium has an athletics track and jump pits.

Stevenage is also popular with commuters due to its direct rail links into London King’s Cross in as little as 24 minutes. Services from Stevenage run north to Cambridge in 40 minutes, and all the way up to Leeds in under two hours. You can cycle to the station in 15 minutes from Marymead Drive. There’s convenient connection across the country by car via the A1(M).
