House For Sale £1,100,000
A 1930s rendered brick under tile extended four bedroom semi-detached house with front and rear gardens, parking and a garage and situated just a mile from the station. The Chilterns were built in 1934 by John Ray Limited on land previously occupied by a house of the same name. The Hertfordshire Express reported at the time that "The houses which are being built in the centre of Hitchin, 300 feet above sea level, have Snowcrete walls and green tiled roofs which harmonise with the surrounding country." Number 30 has been sympathetically extended and improved whilst maintaining the original look and feel. The property is on a private road which is also in a conservation area to maintain the character of the area.
The extensions make this a property with a good flow through open plan ground floor rooms. It retains much of the Art Deco style of the 1930s and the sitting room and front bedroom have large bay "Crittal Windows" to the front as well as decorative leaded motif and patterned tiled fireplaces with wooden mantels and tiled hearths.
