Three reception rooms plus large kitchen/diner for family living
Striking wood‑panelled Tudor Revival entrance hall with character
Landscaped garden and double garage; large private plot
Double glazing installed after 2002; mains gas heating present
Cavity walls assumed uninsulated — insulation likely needed
First time on market in over 40 years; selective modernisation required
Council tax described as quite expensive; budget for running costs
Set across more than 3,000 sq ft, this five-bedroom detached house on Woodlands Road blends substantial family space with distinctive period character. The property offers three reception rooms, a large kitchen/diner and a striking wood‑panelled entrance hall that gives immediate Tudor Revival charm. A landscaped rear garden and a double garage add practical outdoor and parking space for family life.
The location is a major asset: quiet, affluent neighbourhood close to Bushey Station and Watford shopping, with a mix of strong state and independent schools nearby. Practical updates include double glazing fitted after 2002 and a mains gas boiler with radiator heating. The house is being offered on freehold tenure and has no flood risk.
Buyers should note this home has been with the same ownership for over 40 years and will need selective modernisation to meet contemporary efficiency and lifestyle expectations. The cavity walls are assumed uninsulated and further works (insulation, cosmetic updating, possible system upgrades) may be required. Council tax is described as quite expensive, and one nearby secondary school has an Inadequate Ofsted rating, although other local schools are rated Good or independent.
This is a desirable family or executive home for someone who values substantial space and original character with scope to personalise. It suits buyers seeking a roomy, well‑located property with renovation potential rather than a turnkey move-in.
