Summary - 48 HARPENDEN ROAD ST ALBANS AL3 6DE
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious, well-located family home near schools and station.
Four bedrooms including principal ensuite
Set just 0.4 miles from St Albans High Street and about 1 mile from the mainline station, this detached four-bedroom house balances practical family living with excellent commuter links. The layout offers two generous reception rooms, a modern kitchen-diner, utility and ground-floor WC — practical spaces for everyday family life and entertaining. Bedrooms, including a principal with ensuite, and a separate family bathroom sit on the first floor, providing comfortable sleeping accommodation across approximately 1,364 sq ft.
Externally the house sits on a decent plot with private front and rear gardens, a paved driveway and gated side access; off-street parking is available via a rear driveway. The exterior appears well maintained with brick cavity walls and uPVC windows; interiors are described as bright and airy with a modern kitchen and two contemporary bathrooms. The location is a strong selling point for families, given proximity to several highly rated schools and local amenities.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: no separate garage is shown on the plans, and council tax is described as quite expensive. The property is freehold and in a very affluent area, but the surrounding neighbourhood is described as average for crime and households in terraces and flats, so viewers may wish to assess privacy and boundary treatments. Overall this is a straightforward, well-positioned family home offering room to personalise while benefiting from exceptional local transport and schooling options.
