Property Detail
We were approached by the owner of this well-located three-bedroom semi-detached home in Hitchin, who was looking to downsize into a retirement property. Having lived in the house since it was built, the move was a significant one and the vendor was keen to find a buyer quickly, while still achieving the best possible price.
Situated just 0.7 miles from Hitchin train station and 1.1 miles from the town centre, the property offered a great balance of space and potential. The ground floor featured a welcoming porch, a spacious lounge, a separate dining room with sliding doors to the garden, an extended kitchen, and a downstairs cloakroom. Upstairs were two double bedrooms with built-in storage, a single bedroom, and a family bathroom with a power shower.
Externally, the home had off-road parking for two to three vehicles, a patio area, a well-maintained rear garden with lawn, and a useful garden shed. Offered with no onward chain, the property presented an excellent opportunity for a buyer to modernise and add value.
To maximise exposure, we launched a tailored marketing campaign that included professional photography, a detailed property listing, and a high-quality video tour. This was promoted through a targeted pay-per-click social media campaign, which generated over 20,000 views and drove strong early interest.
We also reached out directly to motivated buyers on our database and ensured the listing was visible across major property portals and local channels.
The Result:
Within just 10 days of going live, we arranged 8 viewings and received 2 offers. One of these came from a chain-free buyer with a low mortgage requirement, an ideal match for the vendor’s circumstances. The sale was agreed at the full guide price, enabling a smooth, efficient transaction.
This story is a great example of how the right strategy, local expertise, and smart digital marketing can deliver outstanding results – fast.
