Summary - LONDON HOUSE, 24 - 26 HIGH STREET ASHWELL BALDOCK SG7 5NW
6 bed 5 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious family living with long private garden and flexible lower-ground space.
Almost 3,700 sq ft across four floors with high c.10ft ceilings
London House is a handsome Victorian semi-detached family home providing almost 3,700 sq ft over four floors. High, c.10ft ceilings, original cornicing, sash windows and feature fireplaces give generous, characterful living spaces ideal for family life and entertaining. The ground floor flows from a welcoming hall into drawing and dining rooms, with a kitchen/breakfast room and French doors out to the long, enclosed rear garden.
The accommodation includes a principal bedroom with dressing room and en suite, three further first-floor doubles (two en suite), plus two second-floor doubles and a study. The lower ground floor is currently arranged as TV/games and gym space with shower room, offering flexible options for play, work-from-home or ancillary accommodation. Double gates lead to a secure driveway, double garage, carport and store; previous planning permission was granted for a larger replacement double garage and annexe.
Practical details: the property is freehold, served by mains gas boiler and radiators, double glazed, and lies in a very low crime, affluent village setting with excellent mobile and fast broadband. The rear garden spans almost 150ft with terraces, greenhouse and mature borders, a rare privately enclosed outdoor asset in the village. Local amenities, good primary schools and rail links to regional centres make this comfortable for family living.
Important considerations: the house is a period solid-brick build (pre-1900) and is assumed to have no wall insulation; buyers should expect potential energy-efficiency improvements and period-property maintenance. Council tax is noted as quite expensive. While well-proportioned, some spaces may benefit from modernisation to match contemporary expectations or to realise the full potential of the planning consent.
