3 bed end terrace house for sale

Icknield Way, Baldock SG7

Property Insight
An extended impressive end-of-terrace period cottage set back from the road behind a generous gravelled frontage, offering rare off-road parking for several vehicles in this established Baldock position. The yellow-brick elevations under a slate roof, with red-brick detailing and chimney stacks to both ends, give the property genuine period character, and the accommodation runs to over 1,150 sq ft across two floors, plus a substantial timber outbuilding in the garden. Offered with No Upward Chain, it makes a straightforward move for a family or those wanting more room than a typical terrace provides.

Inside, the ground floor is arranged for flexible family living, with three separate reception spaces. The living room and sitting area both retain characterful chimney breasts - one in exposed brick with a tiled hearth, the other with an open brick recess - and stripped timber flooring runs underfoot, giving the rooms warmth and period feel. To the rear, the kitchen/dining room is a bright dual-aspect space with French doors opening to the garden, fitted with white units and space for freestanding appliances. The proportions are generous and the room easily takes a large table.

Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a particularly large principal room spanning almost fifteen feet, two of which retain cast-iron feature fireplaces and one a built-in wardrobe and storage cupboard. The family bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower over. Outside, the generous rear garden is laid to lawn and enclosed by timber fencing, with a paved terrace off the house and a substantial timber outbuilding providing generous storage and workshop space, with scope to adapt to a variety of uses. With further scope to extend (STPP), it offers a rare combination of space, parking and potential close to the centre of a historic market town.

Location – Baldock
Baldock is a historic market town in North Hertfordshire, 9 miles from Royston, 3 miles from Letchworth and 14 miles from Hertford, with excellent commuter links to London via its own train station or the A1M and M25. Though small, the town has an array of architecture spanning the Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian eras. The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin was built around 1150 by the Knights Templar, sits at the centre of the town, and runs two church schools - St Mary's Infant and St Mary's Junior. There is a long tradition of brewing which continues today, with local cider and ales sold at The Orange Tree, a 330-year-old pub. The Baldock Festival runs three weeks of museum displays, tastings, beer festivals, brewery tours, cricket, comedy and quiz nights. The town offers independent retailers, chain stores and supermarkets, alongside a football pitch, bmx run, basketball court, play areas and the Knights Templar Sports Centre.
