Set on a substantial plot in desirable Harpenden, this attractive Tudor-style semi offers generous living space and family-friendly proportions. Former extensions create a flowing layout including a 19' modern kitchen/breakfast room, separate sitting and living rooms, a ground-floor shower room and three double bedrooms upstairs. The long, well-stocked rear garden backs onto allotments and extends over 100ft, providing safe outdoor space and scope for play or landscaping.
Practical benefits include gas central heating with radiator system, double glazing (install date unknown) and a small integral garage with additional off-street parking. The house sits under a mile from the mainline station and close to a cluster of highly rated primary and secondary schools, making daily commutes and school runs straightforward for families.
There are a few practical considerations: the home dates from the 1930–1949 era and retains solid brick walls with no known cavity insulation (assumed), so upgrading insulation could improve comfort and running costs. Council Tax sits at Band F, so ongoing charges are relatively high. The integral garage is small and may suit storage or a compact car rather than larger vehicles.
Overall this is a characterful, well-located family house with immediate move-in appeal from the modern kitchen/bathroom, plus clear potential to add value through targeted insulation and aesthetic updating. Its plot, proximity to transport and excellent local schools will suit buyers seeking space and long-term family convenience.
