Two Bedroom Semi Detached House To Let

Located within great ashby which offers a selection of local shops and businesses, whilst more comprehensive amenities can be found in the town centre or old town. There is also excellent access to London via the A1 junction 7 or 8 and the Stevenage station which provides access to Kings Cross.

“One of the things we’ve truly appreciated is having two parking spaces right outside the house—it makes everyday life so much easier, especially in bad weather or when unloading shopping. The moment you step inside, the home greets you with light-filled interiors and considered design. We completely refurbished the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area, sparing no expense. It’s the heart of our home, and perfect for entertaining—at Christmas we’ve hosted dinners for 12, and in the summer, our bi-folding doors open up to the garden for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Three spacious storage cupboards help keep the house clutter-free—one under the stairs for everyday essentials like the hoover and ironing board, a dedicated utility cupboard, and a large pantry that’s a dream for anyone who enjoys cooking or baking. When we have guests over, the downstairs WC is perfectly positioned by the entrance preventing them from needing to go upstairs. We both work from home, so having a separate office/snug has been invaluable for productivity and privacy. The garden is wonderfully low maintenance, gets plenty of sun, and is ideal for al fresco dining. Upstairs, there are two well-sized bedrooms. The main bedroom has built-in wardrobes, and the second comfortably fits a double bed—ideal for a growing family or guests. The fully tiled bathroom is modern and practical, with ample storage and a window for ventilation. There's also easy access to the loft, which is great for storing suitcases and seasonal items.”

Ricky's Perspective - One of the standout features of this location is the small park directly opposite the house—perfect for young families with its climbing frame and slide. For more expansive green spaces, Great Ashby District Park and St Nicholas Park are just a short walk away, ideal for dog walkers, runners, or leisurely strolls. The cul-de-sac is known for being quiet and friendly, with a strong sense of community among neighbours. Just a couple of minutes' walk away are local shops, incredibly handy for last-minute ingredients or everyday essentials. The local takeaways are a real highlight—the Chinese and fish & chip shop are both excellent, and Pivora Grill is a local favourite. In the warmer months, you can enjoy scenic walks across the fields to the nearby village of Weston, where you’ll find pubs like The Cricketers, serving up great pints, Sunday roasts, and stone-baked pizzas. For families, round diamond school is Ofsted-rated Outstanding and even closer than the shops. There’s also Busy Bees Nursery, which comes highly recommended by local parents
