Large plot, garage and great school catchment — ideal for family renovation projects.
Detached four-bedroom house with elevated views over open fields
Set back from Old Watford Road, this detached four-bedroom home occupies a large plot with elevated, uninterrupted views over adjoining green fields. The property offers generous reception space including an L-shaped lounge/diner with bay window and French doors to the garden, plus a detached double garage and driveway parking — a practical family layout in a sought-after village location.
The house presents excellent scope for modernisation: the kitchen and some bathrooms will benefit from contemporary refitting, and cosmetic updating throughout would unlock significant value. Constructed in the late 1970s–early 1980s, the property already has double glazing and gas-fired central heating, but it is marketed as needing renovation so buyers should budget for improvements and potential redecoration.
Practical advantages include fast broadband, mains gas heating, no flood risk and easy access to the M1/M25 corridors for commuters. Local schooling is strong — including an outstanding secondary option — and the neighbourhood is affluent and family-oriented, making this a long-term home with both immediate space and future potential.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property requires renovation and updating, and council tax is described as expensive. Prospective purchasers should allow for refurbishment costs and consider surveys to confirm the condition of services and structure before commitment.
