About this home
This charming detached house occupies a sizeable plot and offers an increasingly rare opportunity for improvement or redevelopment, subject to the usual consents, with plenty of local precedent to illustrate what might be possible. The property is in one of St Albans most desirable areas, close to a number of well regarded schools and within walking distance of the town centre and mainline train station.
The house is set back from the road, with a driveway at the front providing off-street parking. The outer porch opens into the entrance hall which gives access to a bathroom and separate WC. The bright dual-aspect living room is to the side of the house and it has double doors which lead through to a large dining room at the rear overlooking the garden. The kitchen is at the heart of the home and is designed to accommodate ample storage as well as space for a table and chairs.
The first floor is currently configured to provide two good sized double bedrooms. Both bedrooms have fitted storage and there is a spacious shower room off the landing.
The garden is a particularly impressive feature, extending to approximately 120 feet. A large patio area leads onto the lawn and there are established planted beds and a number of mature trees and shrubs creating a good level of privacy.
The property has direct access from the rear garden to the front and there is a single garage with door to the garden.
Ideally located for access to some of St Albans' most popular schools, this property is also within walking distance of the mainline train station and extensive amenities in the city centre. There are also local shops a short walk away at Beech Road and at the Quadrant.
