A welcoming entrance hall leads through to a bright open plan living area.

The vendor has advised that the property currently benefits from a lease of approximately 117 years remaining as of 2026. A lease extension has been applied for and, once completed, will add a further 90 years, resulting in a total term of approximately 207 years. The ground rent will then become peppercorn, with a service charge of £1,418.27 per annum, payable in January and July.
Hitchin is a charming medieval market town and has many fine Tudor and Georgian buildings, particularly around the market square. Near to the market square stands the large medieval parish church of St Mary. The town provides good shopping as well as a swimming pool, football team, two theatres, a wide variety of restaurants and pubs and highly regarded girls and boys schools. There is also a mainline railway station providing direct access to Kings Cross and Cambridge.
