About this home

Set on the ever-popular Hatfield Road in St Albans, this beautifully presented TWO BEDROOM first floor apartment occupies an attractive period red brick building and is perfectly positioned directly opposite Clarence Park, with St Albans City station just a short walk away. ON STREET PARKING is available for the property within permit zone P, making it ideal for commuters and for those who enjoy having green space on the doorstep.

A grand arched entrance and a private flight of steps lead up to the front door, which opens to a hallway and stairs rising to the first floor. At the top, the apartment feels instantly bright and welcoming, with herringbone flooring running through the hallway, kitchen and living space to give a cohesive, stylish feel.

The generous living and dining area is a real highlight. A broad bay window with shutter-style blinds fills the room with natural light and looks out over leafy treetops, while a further sash window adds to the airy feel. Period details include decorative ceiling roses, deep coving and a classic fireplace with a contemporary tiled surround, and there is ample space for both a comfortable sitting area and a full dining table, making the room equally suited to relaxing evenings and entertaining friends.

The kitchen is neatly fitted with sleek handleless base units, stone-effect worktops and a patterned tiled splashback. It includes an integrated oven, a four-ring gas hob with stainless steel extractor, and space for a freestanding fridge freezer, while open floating shelves and a window to the side keep the space light and practical.

The principal bedroom is a charming double with period character in the form of an original cast iron fireplace with decorative tiled inserts, built-in alcove shelving and a feature panelled wall. There is plenty of room for freestanding wardrobes and storage. The second bedroom is a well-proportioned room with a full width mirrored sliding wardrobe, and is currently used as a home office with space for a sofa bed, offering real flexibility for guests, a nursery or working from home.

The bathroom is fitted with a white suite comprising a panelled bath with glass screen and overhead shower, a wash basin with vanity storage, a low level WC, a heated chrome towel rail and attractive geometric floor tiling, finished with crisp metro-style wall tiles.

Outside, residents enjoy the benefit of a generous communal garden, mainly laid to lawn and bordered by mature trees and established planting, with a paved seating area ideal for summer afternoons. The property is offered with a share of the freehold, giving owners a greater say in the running of the building.

Combining period charm, a superb location and a wealth of character, this lovely apartment would make an excellent first home, a smart investment or a comfortable base for professionals. Early viewing is highly recommended.
