Compact character home near top schools and fast rail links to London.
Victorian mid-terrace with bay window and original character features
This Victorian mid-terrace on Oxford Street blends period character with recent upgrades, making it a practical choice for first-time buyers seeking a ready-to-move-in home near central Watford. The house has two reception rooms, two double bedrooms and a newly fitted kitchen, plus an off-landing bathroom and downstairs WC — all recently refurbished and fitted with new flooring and a new boiler.
The rear garden is landscaped and easy to maintain; a separate utility/WC provides useful additional space. The property sits in a conservation residential area known as “The Square,” within convenient reach of Watford town centre, multiple rail stations with direct London links, Watford General Hospital and top-performing school catchments including Watford Girls and Boys Grammar Schools.
Practical considerations are stated plainly: the plot is narrow with a small forecourt and on-street permit parking only. The building is solid-brick Victorian stock with assumed lack of cavity insulation; double glazing is fitted but install date is unknown. The area records higher local crime statistics, and any buyer should verify this and factor potential security or insurance implications into their plans.
There is scope to increase value by extending (subject to planning permission), improving kerb appeal and adding internal storage. Overall, the house offers a compact, characterful home with many contemporary comforts and clear potential for modest enhancement.
