A stylishly presented three-bedroom Victorian end-of-terrace in St Albans' conservation area, this home combines period character with practical family living. The bay-fronted lounge, separate dining room and modern kitchen create bright, well-zoned ground-floor living, while the private c.60ft rear garden provides a peaceful outdoor space for entertaining and play.
The property is well positioned for families and professionals: close to highly regarded schools, within walking distance of St Albans City station and the city centre. There is clear potential to increase living space by adding a rear extension and loft conversion (subject to planning and building regulations), making this an attractive purchase for buyers wanting to add value.
Buyers should note some typical Victorian-era limitations: the house has solid brick walls with no built-in insulation (insulation upgrades likely needed), double glazing fitted before 2002 and a single family bathroom serving three bedrooms. Council tax is above average and the plot is small, so outdoor space is private but not extensive.
Overall this freehold home offers a comfortable, characterful base in a very affluent, low-crime neighbourhood with excellent transport and schooling nearby. The layout and planning potential will particularly suit growing families or buyers seeking a well-located property with scope to extend and modernise further.
