Situated on Leavesden Road, this compact Victorian mid-terrace offers a rare combination of location and potential. Two spacious double bedrooms and a third single room provide flexible living for a growing family or rental tenants, while a bright reception room opens directly onto a private garden — a welcome outdoor retreat in an urban setting.
The property benefits from an efficient galley kitchen, double glazing installed since 2002 and mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators. It sits a short walk from Watford Junction, the town centre, parks and highly ranked local schools including Watford Grammar for Boys and several ‘Outstanding’ primaries — strong practical advantages for families and a reliable tenant pool for investors.
Buyers should note this home is small in overall footprint and sits on a modest plot. The interior shows signs of age and will benefit from modernisation to unlock full value; walls are original solid brick with no assumed insulation, and the layout is traditional rather than open-plan. There is one family bathroom and the area records higher local crime rates, which may influence buyer preferences or rental pricing.
For purchasers prepared to invest in updating, this freehold terraced house offers a pragmatic entry into an affluent, well-connected part of Watford. Council Tax band C and an EPC rating of D help keep running costs relatively affordable, while the proximity to transport and schools supports either comfortable family life or steady rental demand.
