Five bedrooms across three storeys, including loft bedroom
Set on historic Watling Street, this substantial five-bedroom semi-detached home offers generous family living across three floors and c.1,837 sqft of space. Characterful bay windows, original detail and a separate dining room give the house period charm while the sizeable private rear garden and long driveway provide excellent outdoor space and off-street parking for several cars.
Accommodation includes two reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room with utility and cloakroom, four first-floor bedrooms plus a large fifth bedroom in the loft. The layout suits growing families seeking flexible rooms for work, play and guests; there is also scope to extend further subject to planning, to increase living space or reconfigure for contemporary life.
Practical considerations: the property is freehold and benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing (install dates unknown). Some internal modernisation of kitchen, bathrooms and services may be wanted to maximise value. Council Tax band F means running costs are relatively high.
Location is a major selling point — around 1.2 miles from St Albans High Street, close to top-rated state and independent schools, fast rail links to London (circa 30 minutes) and plentiful local amenities. This is a strong family-focused home with period character, a large plot and clear potential to personalise.
