Overall Description

This substantial semi-detached house sits down a quiet cul-de-sac with little passing traffic so is an ideal location to bring up a family, especially with it being so close to very good local schools. The house has three bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs while downstairs there is a front porch, spacious hallway, large sitting dining room and kitchen with downstairs cloakroom and utility accessed from the rear hall. Outside there is a private driveway, garage and good-sized back garden with greenhouse and shed. The property has double-glazed windows and gas central-heating, but would benefit from internal modernisation (kitchen, bathroom, floorings and redecoration). However, it does offer buyers the opportunity to create a large modern family home to suit their individual needs and taste in a really good location for schools, transport links and other amenities. There is even potential, should you wish, to extend to the rear and/or create further living accommodation in the garage, subject to the usual consents. The property is being sold with no chain. We are holding an Open House for this property on Saturday 11th November from 9.30am until 10.30am. Please call to book an appointment - 01992 878580.

Location

This family home sits towards the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Bengeo, the ever popular area on the edge of Hertford. It is close to a good range of local amenities including the Co-Op mini supermarket, local pubs, a parade of local shops, and two of the best primary schools in Hertford, Duncombe and Bengeo Primary School. It is also around a ten minute walk from Hertford North railway station with regular services to London (Hertford East is around a 15 minute walk away). Hertford has a very good range of local facilities such as shops, restaurants, and supermarkets, yet is also an attractive and very pleasant place to live, which (along with its excellent transport links) is why it is so popular with young professional families and commuters. The town is surrounded by some very beautiful countryside and living in this part of Bengeo you have some very pleasant walks on your doorstep heading out towards Chapmore End or across Waterford Heath Community Nature Reserve and down to the River Beane. There are a wide range of sporting and leisure pursuits close to hand, including Hartham Common (a ten minute walk away) with its riverside walks, Activity Centre, swimming pool and tennis courts.
