Summary - Cravells Road, Harpenden, AL5 AL5 1BQ
4 bed 2 bath House
Four-bed family home with large secluded south-east garden near Harpenden Common.
Double-fronted Victorian end-terrace with bay windows and character features
A rare double-fronted Victorian house on Cravells Road, offering four bedrooms and generous living space across two floors. The property blends period character — bay windows, chimneys and solid brick walls — with practical modern comforts such as gas central heating, secondary glazing and a useful covered side passage with power and lighting.
Ground floor living includes three reception rooms, a kitchen/dining room, conservatory, study and a rear shower room. The study and shower room at the rear create clear potential for a self-contained annexe or flexible home-working space. Upstairs are four well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom, suitable for a growing family.
Outside, the house benefits from a secluded south-east facing rear garden with mature planting, two sheds and a decent plot size for extension (subject to planning). The location is strong for families: close to East Common, Southdown shopping, excellent schools and about a mile from Harpenden town centre and station (fast trains to St Pancras c.26 minutes). London Luton Airport and motorway access are nearby.
Practical points: the property is freehold, average overall size (about 1,636 sq ft) and sits in a very affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so buyers seeking improved energy efficiency may want to budget for insulation or other upgrades. Council tax is above average.
