Set on a rare 0.34-acre plot with open land to one side, this three-bedroom house offers genuine scope to create a generous family home. The layout currently includes two reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast area, utility and integral garage, with three bedrooms and a single family bathroom upstairs.
The property is a period house (circa 1900–1929) with bay windows, solid brick walls and double glazing of unknown install date. It needs renovation and updating throughout, which presents an opportunity to reconfigure, extend to the side/rear or convert the loft (all subject to planning consent) to increase living space and value.
Practical assets include a long driveway with parking for several vehicles, an attached garage, mains gas central heating and fast broadband and mobile signal. The location offers straightforward road access toward St Albans city centre, nearby good and outstanding schools and a generally affluent, family-oriented neighbourhood.
Buyers should note material drawbacks before viewing: the house requires refurbishment, likely insulation and decorating work, it has one bathroom for three bedrooms, and council tax is high. Those looking for a ready-to-move-in property may prefer to look elsewhere, while anyone seeking project potential and long garden space will find this a strong candidate.
