This reimagined 1930s cottage marries period character with contemporary finishes. The newly fitted kitchen, new flooring throughout and double glazing give a move-in-ready feel while retaining original features such as an arched entrance and sash‑style windows. French doors open onto an unusually long rear garden (circa 70ft) — rare for terraces and ideal for family time or entertaining.
Accommodation is compact and efficient: two double bedrooms and a generous family bathroom sit above a living room and separate dining room. Room sizes are modest, so the layout suits first‑time buyers, small families or downsizers seeking a practical, low‑maintenance home rather than large living spaces. The property is chain‑free and freehold, simplifying purchase.
Practical advantages include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and convenient local amenities. Good primary and secondary schools are nearby and regular buses link to St Albans and Potters Bar; St Albans City rail services provide direct trains to London.
Buyers should note this is a compact mid‑terrace cottage on a small plot footprint despite the long rear garden; front outdoor space is limited. The building has original solid brick walls (likely without modern cavity insulation), so buyers who prioritise thermal performance may want to budget for additional insulation works. Overall, the house offers strong commuter convenience, characterful appeal and a sizeable rear garden but with modest internal room sizes and some potential improvement costs.
