Summary - 354 LONDON ROAD ST ALBANS AL1 1EA
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Sunny garden plot with scope to extend and modernise.
South-west facing rear garden approx. 157ft
Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this substantial detached home sits on a sunny, south-west facing plot of roughly 157ft — rare for the area and perfect for family life and outdoor living. The house offers three floors of well-proportioned accommodation including a bright bay-fronted living room, a full-width conservatory overlooking the garden, and a flexible loft room with dormer windows.
Practical family features include a fitted kitchen with dining area, main bedroom with en-suite, two further double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and off-street parking for several cars with an EV charging point already installed. The long garden has patio, decking, raised beds, mature trees, two sheds and an original WW2 air-raid shelter, providing both character and scope for play, gardening and entertaining.
The property dates from the interwar period (circa 1930–49) and retains character, but there are practical considerations: the EPC is graded E and walls are likely solid brick with no built-in insulation (assumed), so thermal upgrades would improve comfort and running costs. There is scope to extend further, subject to planning permission, offering long-term value for a growing family.
Set in a very affluent, family-orientated area with good local schools and fast broadband, this home suits buyers seeking spacious, characterful accommodation with potential to modernise and personalise rather than a fully refurbished turnkey property.
