Large circa 100ft rear garden ideal for extension or landscaping
Set on a large plot in desirable East Harpenden, this three-bedroom detached home offers immediate living space with strong potential to extend (STPP). The generous circa 100ft rear garden, separate dining room and light-filled garden room create a comfortable family layout, while an integral garage adds practical parking and storage.
Well placed for families, the property is within walking distance of highly regarded primary and secondary schools and about a mile from Harpenden station, which provides direct trains to central London in around 30 minutes. Offered chain free, the house is ready for a buyer who wants to personalise and improve a mid-20th century home.
The house is structurally conventional with double glazing and mains gas central heating, but many internal finishes date from earlier decades. The cavity walls were built without modern insulation (assumed), and some updating of décor, kitchen and bathrooms is likely to be required to suit contemporary standards. There is clear scope for extension or reconfiguration subject to planning permission.
This is a strong opportunity for a growing family seeking space, school catchments and commuter convenience, or for buyers wishing to add value through renovation and sensible extension. Important practical notes: council tax is high for the area, and buyers should factor potential improvement and insulation works into budgets.
