Summary - 1 COSNE MEWS HARPENDEN AL5 1DP
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Compact private courtyard home ideal for first-time buyers seeking low-maintenance living.
No onward chain — immediate vacant possession available
Set within a private gated courtyard in Harpenden, this compact two-bedroom semi offers immediate vacant possession and a straightforward move-in option for a first-time buyer. The layout includes a bright lounge with stairs rising from the living space, a kitchen/breakfast room, bathroom and two first-floor bedrooms with built-in storage. Outside is a low‑maintenance rear garden and garage en-bloc.
The house is small in overall footprint (approximately 603 sq ft) so it suits a couple, single buyer or those seeking a low‑upkeep town-centre base. Key practical points: freehold tenure, no onward chain and fast broadband — useful for home working. Local amenities and reputable primary and secondary schools are within easy walking distance.
Buyers should note a few material points: heating is by electric storage heaters and the double glazing appears to pre-date 2002, so energy performance may be lower than newer systems. The plot and garden are modest, and the garage is en-bloc rather than attached. There’s sensible potential to modernise the kitchen and bath if desired, but no significant structural issues are indicated.
Overall this property offers a well-located, low-maintenance starter home with scope to personalise and improve energy performance over time. Its private courtyard setting and convenient access to local shops make it particularly appealing to first-time buyers seeking a compact, manageable home in a very affluent area.
