This recently refurbished 1930s semi on the outskirts of Baldock is set on a substantial plot, with delightful gardens, a long driveway and a detached garage. A family will be very happy here, close to countryside and greenspaces, good schools, and an array of amenities.
The Property
Entering the property, you first come into the glazed porch, before stepping into the hall. The home has had extensive refurbishment over the last year, and the hall is just a taste of what’s to come, with herringbone wood-effect flooring, newly carpeted stairs and freshly painted walls. The current owner has taken care of costly changes, seeing to new electrics, a new boiler and new radiators, as well as replastering, full redecoration and new floors.
Coming into the main living accommodation, what was once two separate rooms is now an L-shaped open-plan space consisting of lounge, dining and kitchen areas. The lounge to the front is bright from a south-facing window, and the dining area in the centre has capacity for both daily meals as a family and dinner parties with friends.
The kitchen was replaced in late 2023, in a combination of Shaker-style cabinets and quartz worktops. There’s casual bar seating to a peninsula, under which there’s a gap for a wine fridge. There are gaps for further appliances, and a utility area has a ceramic sink, keeping washing up from view. A convenient cloakroom is tucked into the corner of the kitchen.
Kindlelight bi-fold doors were installed across the back of the kitchen, and these open up to unite the indoors with outdoors. With such a lengthy garden, there’s real potential here to extend the accommodation (stp), whether just the ground floor, or the first floor too.
On the first floor, there are three bedrooms and a shower room. Two of the bedrooms are generous doubles, each with fitted Hammonds wardrobes, while the third is used as an office. The contemporary shower room has a white suite, and there’s attractive stone-effect tiling to the walls and floor. The double shower enclosure could well be large enough to replace with a bath if preferred.
The Plot
Set well back from the road, the property is granted a very large southerly-facing frontage. There’s a lawn with mature foliage and flowers, and lush hedging lines the boundaries. Ideal for big families and multiple visitors, the driveway provides off-road parking for at least five cars, and the garage for one more. The garage has power to use as a workshop, and is of course useful for storage.
Behind the house, the rear garden extends to over 120ft. It’s almost entirely lawned, with small trees, and patches of planting including hydrangea and lavender. There’s huge opportunity here to add landscaping, to zone into areas for playing, sitting and al fresco dining, and to create an even lovelier oasis from such fantastic foundations.
The Position
On the western edge of Baldock, the property’s position benefits from quick, easy access into both Baldock and Letchworth. Each town provides a long list of things to see and do and places to eat and drink. Baldock has Ofsted-rated ’Good’ schools, including the well-regarded The Knights Templar School for secondary, while Letchworth also has independent education.
Historic Baldock’s bustling centre has an array of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and pubs, important amenities such as doctors and dentists, and offerings such as a library and a community centre. Events are held throughout the year, including family-friendly Baldock Festival in May, Balstock (Hertfordshire’s biggest free music festival) every September, as well as carols around the Christmas tree in December.
Activities are available in abundance, with greenspaces aplenty, various facilities for sports and keeping fit, allotments and Tapps Garden Centre for the green-fingered, even a recording studio for the musical among you. For nature and the great outdoors, Baldock has Weston Hills and Ivel Springs nature reserves, Letchworth has Standalone Farm, and slightly further afield in Hitchin are lavender fields and a pick-your-own fruit farm.
Baldock is a popular commuter town, with fast, frequent rail services into London in as little as 42 minutes, and Cambridge in under half an hour. The property is a 15-20-minute walk from the station, or mere minutes by bike. As for roads, the town is set along the A1(M) only c.30 miles from London, and the A505 and A507 intersect to the east.
