From the moment you step into the welcoming entrance hall, there is a lovely sense of space and potential. The bay-fronted living room provides a bright and comfortable setting for family life, whether that means quiet evenings at home, weekend films or gathering with friends.

To the rear, the kitchen breakfast room sits alongside a generous dining area overlooking the garden. There is plenty of scope to create a fantastic open and sociable space here, with the garden providing a wonderful backdrop for family meals, summer entertaining and everyday life.

Upstairs, the large landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms. Two benefit from attractive bay windows, while the third enjoys lovely views across the garden. A family bathroom completes the first floor, with the layout offering plenty of flexibility for modern family living.

Outside is where this home really comes into its own. The mature rear garden extends to approximately 87 feet, providing a fantastic amount of outdoor space for children to play, relaxing in the sunshine, gardening or hosting friends and family during the warmer months. There is also side access, while the front garden provides off-street parking.

For those looking to add value and create their ideal home, there is also scope to extend and further personalise the property, subject to the necessary planning permissions. Whether you are looking to sympathetically restore its 1930s character, create a contemporary family home or take the opportunity to remodel the accommodation to suit your lifestyle, there is plenty to work with.

Being chain free makes this an exciting opportunity for buyers who are ready to take on a project and make their mark in a highly desirable part of St Albans.
