The ground floor includes a living room with log-burning stove, a study/hobby room, and a family room that leads directly to the rear patio and garden. A useful sub-floor storage area and sizeable garage add practical storage and project potential.
Four good-sized bedrooms are on the first floor, one with an ensuite and another with a mezzanine workspace or storage. A fifth bedroom has separate ground-floor access, suitable for guests or conversion into a self-contained annexe if the garage is adapted. Outside there is a lawned rear garden, driveway parking for up to four cars and an office outbuilding suitable for home working or a workshop.
The house dates from the 1950s–60s and is in average overall size and condition; many areas retain dated decor and will benefit from updating. Double glazing is present but installation date is unknown; the property uses mains gas central heating. Council tax is described as expensive and prospective buyers should allow budget for modernisation and energy-efficiency improvements if required.
Located close to Markyate village amenities, local primary schools and open fields, the property offers good road and rail links to St Albans and the motorway network. It suits a growing family seeking generous living space with scope to modernise, extend or create an annexe-style arrangement subject to consents.
