Summary - 2 BURNHAM ROAD ST ALBANS AL1 4QW
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Bright kitchen, large south-facing garden and useful garden room for home-working.
Three-bedroom detached house with freehold tenure
This mid-20th century detached house in Fleetville offers practical family living across two floors. The ground floor’s open-plan living and dining area flows to a bright kitchen/breakfast room with skylights and double doors out to a large south-facing garden and garden room—excellent for children, entertaining and home-working. A useful understairs WC and separate utility room add everyday convenience.
Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom with separate shower and bath, suitable for a growing household. The property is freehold, has mains gas central heating and double glazing, and benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — helpful for commuters and remote workers. Local schools range from outstanding to good, and the city centre and mainline station are within reach for London travel.
Buyers should note some practical drawbacks. Parking is on-street only, council tax is described as expensive, and crime levels in the area are reported as high. The house dates from c.1950–66 and the cavity walls are assumed to be uninsulated, so buyers may want to budget for insulation and other energy-efficiency works. Internal modernisation could further unlock value.
Overall this is a well-laid-out family home in a popular St Albans neighbourhood; it will suit families seeking space and a southerly garden, or buyers willing to invest modestly to improve energy performance and personalise the interior.
