Welcome to Botanist Green

Take the highly desirable Oughtenhead area which is within easy walking distance of Hitchin's medieval market town centre. Then add a modern collection of semi-detached and detached family homes bordered by cricket pitches, a popular nature reserve and open countryside - put this all together, then you have a unique and idyllic setting for Botanist Green.

Recognised as one of the UK’s 'Best Places to Live', the historic market town of Hitchin is located in North Hertfordshire, approximately 35 miles from central London. Sitting alongside the River Hiz, it combines medieval and Georgian character with a vibrant and exciting café culture.

As well as enjoying healthcare and leisure facilities, a library, museum and theatre. Hitchin has a thriving community spirit, with a busy year-round calendar of events, from monthly street food markets to arts fairs. Highlights include the Hitchin Festival, Hermitage Road Day – where the road closes to give way for food, music, classic cars and family entertainment, the Christmas-themed Hitchin Festive Big Weekend and not forgetting the celebrated Rhythms of World Festival which adds to its cultural flavour and charm.

A little further afield, Stevenage, Welwyn Garden City and Luton offer a wider range of shopping, dining and leisure opportunities, enabling you to lead as active or relaxing lifestyle as you wish.
