2 bed terraced house for sale

Back Street, Ashwell SG7

Property Insight
We are delighted to have sold this characterful and thoughtfully extended two-bedroom Victorian cottage, set along one of Ashwell’s prettiest residential streets. Extending to over 650 sq ft, it pairs genuine period charm - exposed brickwork, a cast-iron wood burner, stripped floorboards and plantation-style shutters - with a light-filled rear extension that has turned the kitchen into a sociable kitchen/dining room. With two double bedrooms, a first-floor en-suite, a ground-floor bathroom and a generous tiered garden, it makes a lovely village home with real personality.

The front door opens straight into a welcoming lounge, where an exposed brick chimney breast frames a cast-iron wood burner set within an arched recess - the natural place to kick your boots off after a walk through the village. Stripped floorboards and plantation-style shutters give the room warmth and character.

To the rear, the kitchen/dining room is where the home comes together. Cream shaker-style units sit beneath solid wood worktops, with a ceramic butler sink, a patterned tile splashback and a slate-effect tiled floor. The rear extension creates a dedicated dining area drawn in light from a lantern rooflight, with French doors opening onto the courtyard beyond. A ground-floor bathroom, fitted with a corner bath and traditional-style fittings, completes this level.

Upstairs to the first floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The main bedroom offers built-in storage and a fitted dressing area, while the second double looks out over the garden, there is also a fitted dressing table/office desk and wardrobe. A first-floor en-suite shower room, finished with white metro tiles, serves the bedrooms.

Outside, a private paved courtyard sits directly off the kitchen/dining room - an easy spot for a morning coffee - with steps rising to a surprisingly generous tiered garden. Here you will find a lawn flanked by mature, well-stocked borders, a raised deck for outdoor dining, and a further seating area with a firepit at the top of the plot.

Location – Ashwell
Ashwell is a quintessentially English parish village in north Hertfordshire, 4 miles from Baldock, 7 miles from Royston and 20 miles from Cambridge. It sits on the chalk scarp on the spring line, and its freshwater springs - one of the sources of the River Cam - form part of a biological Site of Special Scientific Interest. The village has a wealth of well-preserved architecture spanning several centuries, including St Mary’s Church, dating from the 14th Century, and a museum covering the village and its history. There is a thriving community with meetings and activities most nights, three pubs, a dentist’s surgery, a primary school, a pharmacy, and a variety of shops, galleries and takeaways. Ashwell is renowned for its peaceful footpath network, and has several successful sports teams from under-12s to veterans. The village has its own railway station with direct links to Cambridge and London, and the A1M and M11 are within a 20-minute drive.
