This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Northridge Way offers straightforward family living with practical space and useful outdoor storage. The ground floor has a living room with a feature fireplace, a separate dining room with patio doors to a private rear garden, a fitted kitchen and a downstairs cloakroom. Upstairs are three bedrooms with built-in storage and a first-floor shower room. The property includes a rear garage and several garden sheds, plus gated side access.
The location is convenient for everyday life: local shops, green open space at Northridge Park, good primary and secondary schools nearby, and Hemel Hempstead mainline station with fast links to London Euston. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the plot is a decent size for outdoor activities or small extensions (subject to necessary consents).
The house was built around the late 1970s/early 1980s and shows signs of age. Interior décor and some fixtures are dated and will benefit from updating; buyers should budget for modernization to bring rooms up to contemporary standards. The property is in a neighbourhood with higher-than-average crime, which may influence buyer priorities.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, no upward chain for a quicker transaction, moderate council tax, mains gas central heating and double glazing. There is scope to extend subject to planning consents, making this a candidate for adding value if you are planning renovation or expansion.
