Set in a quiet cul-de-sac just under a mile from St Albans mainline station, this 1930s detached home offers comfortable family living with easy city access. The house has three double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a private rear garden — plus a detached single garage and additional off-street parking for two cars. Bright principal rooms, a balcony from the main bedroom and a well-equipped kitchen make day-to-day life straightforward.
There is clear scope to improve and extend (subject to the usual consents). The plot and existing detached garage create realistic potential for enlargement or reconfiguration, but no planning permission has been applied for or approved. The property is presented well and habitable as-is, which suits buyers who want immediate occupation or those planning a sympathetic renovation.
Practical details are favourable: cavity walls, mains gas boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Downsides to factor in are a single family bathroom for three double bedrooms, a relatively high council tax band, and a local crime rate above average. Buyers should also allow the usual costs and lead time if pursuing any extensions (STPP).
Overall, this is a spacious, well-located family home in a highly sought area. It will suit families wanting close access to schools and the city centre, or buyers looking for a property with genuine scope to add value via carefully planned extension or improvement.
