Set on a large plot to the north of St Albans city centre, this extensively modernised detached house provides versatile family accommodation across three floors. The ground floor centres on an exceptional open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with vaulted sections, skylights and full-width sliding doors that connect the living space directly to the landscaped rear garden. A formal living room with bay window, a hidden study, utility and cloakroom increase everyday practicality.
The top-floor principal suite includes a dressing room and luxury en-suite, while the first floor offers four further bedrooms with an additional en-suite and a contemporary family bathroom. High-spec finishes include a large island kitchen with integrated appliances, bespoke cabinetry and feature lighting — the property is newly renovated and ready for immediate occupation.
Practical benefits include a private gated driveway providing ample parking, two external stores and reliable services (excellent mobile signal and fast broadband). There is no flood risk and the home sits in a very affluent neighbourhood with highly regarded local schools close by.
Notable negatives: the area records higher-than-average crime levels and council tax is described as quite expensive. Buyers should also confirm the age and warranties for glazing and installed systems despite the recent renovation.
Overall, the house suits a growing family seeking high-spec, move-in-ready accommodation with generous outdoor space and strong transport and digital connectivity. It also offers scope for long-term family use or a comfortable executive base near St Albans city centre.
