Flexible five-bedroom house with large south garden and close transport links.
5/6 bedrooms — flexible layout currently configured as HMO
Vacant possession and no onward chain for a quick sale
Large, enclosed south-facing rear garden with summerhouse and shed
Driveway parking; garage currently used as a bedroom (reduces garage utility)
Spacious rear family room plus separate lounge and dining room
EPC band D; cavity walls likely uninsulated — improvement potential
Council Tax band F — higher ongoing cost for owners
Close to mainline station and several well-rated schools
This substantial five/six-bedroom detached house on Highfield Avenue offers flexible living across approximately 2,126–2,182 sq ft. Currently configured as an HMO, it will be sold with vacant possession and no onward chain, making it straightforward to convert back into a spacious family home or retain as an investment property. The long rear family room and separate lounge and dining room give several layout options for modern living.
Outside, the property sits on a decent plot with a large, enclosed south-facing garden that receives good daylight and includes a brick summerhouse and garden shed. Driveway parking provides off-street convenience and there is internal access to the garage, currently used as a bedroom — useful extra space but limiting as a garage unless reconfigured.
Practical considerations: the house dates from the mid-20th century and has double glazing installed after 2002 and mains gas central heating. EPC is band D and cavity walls are assumed to be uninsulated, so thermal improvements or updating could reduce running costs and improve efficiency. Council Tax is band F, which will be a higher ongoing cost for owners.
Location is a clear asset — close to local amenities, mainline train station and several well-rated primary and secondary schools, including outstanding-rated Hertfordshire & Essex High School. This property will suit growing families wanting generous rooms and outdoor space, or investors targeting a converted HMO or rental return after refurbishment.
