VIEWINGS TO COMMENCE - 21st March 2026
A beautifully presented detached house standing on an impressive and private westerly facing plot with off street parking and useful garage.
Available to the market for the first time in nearly 38 years, this attractive home is situated within both a popular and established residential location that is well placed for the Railway Station, good Schools covering all age ranges plus the vibrant Town Centre. Benslow Rise is a picturesque tree lined road with substantial individual family style homes. The accommodation features a wide entrance hall and dual aspect sitting room with direct access to the landscaped garden. Further accommodation features a separate dual aspect dining room with a walk in bay window, kitchen/breakfast room, rear lobby and cloakroom. Upstairs there are three good sized bedrooms, spectacular views towards Hitchin`s Town Centre, an eaves study and spacious modern bathroom.
This rarely available home also offers in our opinion enormous potential to remodel and extend subject to obtaining the required consents etc. An early early viewing is therefore highly recommended.
