Summary - 49 Mount Drive, Park Street AL2 2NP
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Period character, large garden and scope to modernise — ideal for a growing family..
Chain free with spacious 130ft rear garden and detached garage
A solid 1930s semi-detached family house set on a generous plot south of St Albans, offered chain free. The home retains period character — bay windows, fireplaces and exposed floorboards — and sits well back from the road with a paved driveway and mature front garden. The standout feature is the long c.130ft rear garden with a detached garage accessed from Upton Close, ideal for families who value outdoor space and storage.
The ground floor layout is traditional and practical: porch, welcoming hall, bay-fronted lounge, separate dining room and a fitted kitchen with pantry and garden access. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a bathroom plus a separate WC. Rooms are well proportioned, with the principal bedroom enjoying a bay window and built-in wardrobe. Total internal area is approximately 1,300 sq ft — roomy for modern family life.
The house will suit buyers seeking character and scope to modernise rather than a turnkey move. Notable negatives are the need for updating throughout (kitchen, bathroom, decor, and some floor finishes), assumed solid-brick walls likely without cavity insulation, and a single bathroom. Council tax and local reported crime are above average for the area and should be considered.
Location benefits include short walks to Park Street village amenities, nearby train station for commuter routes into St Albans/London, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Good local schools and easy access to M25/M1 make this a practical family purchase with long-term potential once refurbished.
