Broad Oak Way, Stevenage, Hertfordshire, SG2 8QW

Situated in the popular Broadwater area, the property benefits from a range of nearby shops and local businesses, while a wider selection of amenities can be found in both the town centre and the Old Town. For commuters, there is excellent connectivity to London via the A1 (junctions 7 and 8), as well as Stevenage railway station, which offers direct services into King’s Cross.

Tucked away at the very end of a pedestrian walkway and backing directly onto school playing fields, this is one of those homes that feels surprisingly private from the moment you arrive. The current owners have absolutely transformed the property during their ownership, creating a stylish, modern family home that offers far more space than you might expect from the front. What I particularly like is the plot size. Being positioned away from passing traffic gives the home a peaceful feel, while the larger-than-average gardens provide plenty of space for children to play, entertaining friends, or simply enjoying some outdoor downtime. The garden has been thoughtfully landscaped and one of the standout features is the substantial timber summer house. The sellers have loved having this additional space, whether for working from home, hobbies, a gym, or simply somewhere to escape with a coffee and a bit of peace and quiet. Inside, the house has a bright, contemporary feel throughout. The kitchen has been refitted to create a sociable hub of the home where family life naturally gathers, while the separate lounge and dining room provide flexible living space that's becoming increasingly difficult to find in modern homes. Stylish oak internal doors, plantation shutters and modern décor give the property a quality finish that buyers can move straight into and enjoy from day one. Upstairs you'll find three well-proportioned bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family bathroom featuring both a bath and separate shower – ideal for busy family life. For families, the location is particularly appealing. The playing fields immediately behind create an open outlook, while local schools, amenities and transport links remain conveniently close by. Homes in tucked-away positions like this, with generous gardens, modern interiors and a versatile garden studio, are always popular – and it's easy to see why.
