Set on a corner plot just off Kimpton High Street, this 1930s semi-detached home blends period charm with practical family spaces. The ground floor offers a living room with fireplace, conservatory and a versatile family room that can serve as a fourth bedroom or home office. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a shower room, giving flexible accommodation for families or remote workers.
Outdoor space is a genuine asset: the rear garden is south-facing and described by the seller as large, with a timber summerhouse wired for power — useful as a studio, office or hobby room. There is informal off-street parking to the front, and the property sits within easy reach of good local schools and village amenities, with Harpenden mainline station about 3.7 miles away.
Mechanically the house is in broadly good condition but buyers should note its age: solid brick walls (original, likely uninsulated), double glazing of unknown fit date and minor roof mossing are recorded. The gas boiler and radiators provide mains gas heating, but the home will benefit from energy and fabric improvements if buyers want lower running costs or modern insulation standards.
This is a practical, characterful family property for buyers who value village life and gardening space, and who are comfortable carrying modest updating to improve energy efficiency and personalise interiors. Its location, flexible layout and outbuildings offer clear scope for straightforward enhancement rather than large-scale reconstruction.
