Large character home with huge garden, modern kitchen and top-rated schools nearby.
Spacious 1930s detached family home with classic bay window charm
This handsome 1930s detached family home on Marshalswick Lane combines classic character with contemporary living. The bright living room with a bay window, large open-plan kitchen/dining/family space with quartz worktops, skylights and bifold doors, and a generous utility/WC layout make the ground floor excellent for everyday family life and entertaining.
The house sits on a sizeable plot with a beautifully landscaped driveway, garage and over 125ft rear garden featuring a large patio and garden store/workshop — ideal for children, pets and hobbies. Its location is a major draw: a short walk to several highly rated primary and secondary schools, The Quadrant shops and St Albans city centre.
Practical details to note: the property has an EPC Grade C and mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators. Cavity walls are original with no added insulation assumed; double glazing is present but installation date is unknown. Council tax is noted as expensive. These factors may mean further energy-efficiency improvements or upgrades are worth considering.
Overall, this is a large, characterful family home with modernised living spaces and strong location benefits; it will suit buyers seeking space, good schools nearby and garden-focused living, and those willing to invest modestly in insulation or energy upgrades.
