A Grade II listed 17th century three bedroom detached house with a south facing rear garden, parking and a garage, in the centre of the village of Ickleford. The property at the early part of the 20th century belonged to Walter and Marian Witter who created the Ickleford School of Industries in the house. It has been extensively renovated to create approximately 2186 sq. ft of well-presented accommodation.

There are five reception rooms and there are three first floor bedrooms and two bathrooms. To the front there is off road parking for at least six cars and is surrounded by mature trees and shrubs.

The house has exposed beams and character fireplaces throughout the rooms including an inglenook in the main sitting room. The accommodation includes sitting room, family room, office, dining room, breakfast room, kitchen, utility room, cloakroom and access to the single garage.

The family room is a modern addition to the house, and has a brick built fireplace, French doors to garden and windows to the side. The main sitting room has an inglenook fireplace with feature beam above. The dining room has a quarry tiled floor, a Victorian style fireplace and a bay window with views over the garden. The breakfast room is adjacent to the fully fitted kitchen which has an integrated gas hob with extractor over and a dishwasher.

First Floor
The sitting and dining rooms both have staircases to the first floor. The landing accessed from the sitting room serves two bedrooms and the main bathroom which has a claw foot bath and a separate shower cubicle. The main bedroom has an en suite shower room, dual aspect windows, and access to the second landing which also gives access to a third bedroom. Both these bedrooms have exposed beams and character features.

Gardens and parking
A sweeping block paved driveway at the front provides parking for up to six cars. There is a lawned area screened by mature hedging to the front. The rear garden faces almost due south and has a York Stone patio, a lawn area and established flower and shrub borders. The garage has wooden double doors, power and light and a door into the utility room.

Situation and Schooling
The property is in the centre of Ickleford village, with a range of pubs, a village store and post office, a church and village hall all within walking distance. The common is nearby and there are many country walks all around the village. Ickleford Primary School, which is rated good by Ofsted, is just over the Upper Green from the property. Hitchin has the Boys' and Girls' Schools and The Priory School for secondary education.

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on June 1, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
