Built in the post-war era with space, practicality and everyday living in mind, this is one of those layouts that just works - and at just under 1,000 sq ft, it gives you far more than you might expect from the outside. From the front, it’s simple and unassuming. But once you’re in, the flow starts to reveal itself.
The entrance to the rear doesn’t throw you straight into the house. There’s a natural transition - somewhere for coats, shoes and the bits that come with everyday life, before stepping into the main space.
Then the living room opens up across the rear with doors leading out to the garden. And this is where you start to feel the difference. Proper proportions. Space for real furniture. Room to stretch out, host friends, or just switch off in the evening without feeling like everything’s been squeezed in to fit.
The kitchen and dining space has been reworked to suit modern living. Clean lines, integrated appliances and plenty of worktop space mean it’s practical day to day, but there’s also enough room to sit, eat and spend time here - not just pass through it. It becomes part of how you live, rather than just somewhere to cook.
When it's time to relax and recharge your batteries two genuine double bedrooms give you flexibility, whether that’s a couple needing space, a growing family, or someone working from home who still wants a proper bedroom setup. The main room includes fitted wardrobes, keeping things simple and uncluttered.
Bedroom three sits exactly where you’d want it - ideal as a single room, nursery or home office, depending on what life looks like right now.
Then there’s a setup that just makes everyday life run more smoothly. A bathroom for slowing things down, whether that’s a quick soak at the end of the day or getting ready without feeling rushed and a separate WC that keeps everything moving in the morning. It’s simple, but when life gets busy, it’s the kind of detail you really notice.
The garden gives you more than just a patch of grass. It’s a space you can actually use, somewhere to sit out on a warm evening, let kids burn off some energy, or just have a bit of breathing room at the end of the day. There’s already a sense of shape to it, but plenty of scope to make it your own over time. And the garage adds that extra layer of practicality - whether that’s storage, hobbies, or simply keeping things out of the house.
Location-wise, Stevenage does more than people often expect. There’s a strong sense of community, plenty of green space, and a layout that was designed with people in mind - from local neighbourhood centres to larger retail and leisure areas. For commuters, the station offers direct links into London King’s Cross in around 25 minutes, making it a genuine option for those balancing work and home life. Schools, parks and everyday essentials are all within easy reach, and the town continues to evolve - blending its New Town heritage with ongoing investment and regeneration.

This property is a "Wimpey No Fines" home. The Wimpey No-fines House was a construction method and series of house designs produced by the George Wimpey company and intended for mass-production of social housing for families post World War II. "No-fines" refers to the type of concrete used - concrete with no fine aggregates. This is a is non-standard construction, but it is NOT "defective". The definition of "defective" is specified by law, the Housing Defects Act 1984 - a third of a century old now.

No-fines houses were built with a ten-inch (254mm) concrete shell cast in situ. The concrete for the entire outer structure was cast in one operation using reusable formwork. The ground floor was also concrete; the first floor was made with traditional timber joists and floorboards. Interior walls were a mixture of conventional brick and blockwork construction. To weatherproof the structure, the external facade was rendered.
We have confirmed with mortgage brokers that although this is not a modern traditional method of building, it is not considered a problem with many high street lenders are happy to lend subject to usual surveyors comments.
