Set at the end of a private lane on Sandpit Lane, this four-bedroom period end-of-terrace cottage combines roomy family living with rare privacy and open-field views. The home is presented with warm, natural finishes and a bespoke kitchen that anchors a generous open-plan living area leading to a relaxing sunroom and mature wraparound garden — ideal for children to play and for everyday outdoor entertaining.
Practical extras include a versatile outbuilding with water, electricity and a shower, suitable as a studio, home office or guest annexe, plus an electric entrance gate and generous off-street parking. Planning permission has already been granted for an extension and the building-regulations fees have been paid, so there is clear scope to increase living space and future value.
Be aware of a few material points: the property is heated by an LPG boiler (not a mains gas supply), broadband speeds are slow locally, and the walls are solid brick with no assumed insulation. Crime levels in the immediate area are above average. These are straightforward, manageable issues but worth factoring into running costs and any refurbishment plans.
For families seeking roomy bedrooms, convenient access to St Albans city centre and top local schools, this home offers a comfortable, well-configured layout with genuine potential to improve and personalise. The plot is large for the area and the peaceful, semi-rural setting will appeal to buyers wanting countryside aspects close to town amenities.
