Set on a very large, southerly-facing plot just off Park Avenue South, this impressive five-bedroom detached house offers spacious family living with far-reaching views over the Rothamsted fields. Arranged over two floors, the property provides generous reception rooms, a modern fitted kitchen/breakfast room, utility, and flexible space that can accommodate a live-in nanny or older relative.
Located in a quiet cul-de-sac of three houses and within easy walking distance of Harpenden High Street (0.7 miles) and the mainline station (c.1 mile) with direct trains to London St Pancras, the home combines peaceful suburban privacy with excellent commuter convenience. Well-tended front and rear gardens, gated access onto Rothamsted and a double-width garage add practical family benefits.
Built circa 1990 and remaining with the original owners, the house is well-proportioned but may benefit from selective updating in places (double glazing install date unknown). Owners should allow for ongoing maintenance of a large plot and garden. Council Tax Band H means running costs are high. Overall, the property suits a growing family seeking space, strong local schools and countryside views within easy reach of town and rail links.
