This mid-terrace two-bedroom house on Shaftesbury Road offers compact, well-presented town-centre living within easy walking distance of Watford Junction. The property benefits from two reception rooms, a modern-fitted kitchen, downstairs WC and a small enclosed rear garden — a practical layout for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking strong transport links and local amenities.
The interior is presented in good decorative order with contemporary finishes and wood-effect flooring, making it move-in ready for many buyers. At about 658 sqft, the footprint is typical of Victorian terraced housing: efficient but compact, best suited to a couple, small family or investor prioritising location over large living spaces.
Practical points to note: the house is constructed from original solid brick (likely without cavity insulation) and sits on a small plot with limited on-street parking. While the decoration is good, the property may benefit from further energy-efficiency upgrades or minor modernisation over time to reduce running costs and improve comfort.
Overall this freehold home combines town-centre convenience, reliable commuter access and rental appeal. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout, natural light and the enclosed garden — a rare outside space so close to Watford Junction.
