Summary - 311, Cell Barnes Lane AL1 5QB
2 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Refreshed end-terrace with parking, garden and easy access to St Albans station.
Chain free freehold with no onward chain
This well-presented two-bedroom end-of-terrace sits on the eastern side of St Albans and is offered chain-free on a freehold title. Recently refreshed throughout, the home benefits from gas central heating, uPVC double glazing and a long living room that maximises usable space. Off-street parking and a generous rear garden add practical family conveniences in an otherwise urban setting.
The property is particularly well placed for commuters and families: it is roughly a 20-minute walk to St Albans City station and close to several well-regarded schools including Samuel Ryder Academy. The interior footprint of about 708 sq ft includes two double bedrooms, a fitted kitchen and separate bathroom and WC — suitable as a starter home or a buy-to-let with immediate rental appeal.
There is sensible scope to add value: extension potential exists subject to planning (STPP), and the garden and long living room present straightforward opportunities to reconfigure or extend. Note the EPC rating is D and the original cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so buyers should budget for possible energy-efficiency improvements if desired.
Buyers should be aware of two material considerations: the local area records higher-than-average crime levels, and the second bedroom is relatively small. An AML identity-verification fee (nominal) applies once an offer is accepted. Overall this property will suit first-time buyers, commuting families and investors seeking a low-maintenance, well-located home with short-term rental or longer-term improvement potential.
