Description:
Properties such as this imposing semi-detached home are rare to the market. Offering a wealth of family accommodation, it occupies a substantial plot on one of the most desirable roads in St. Albans. Set back from the road, and beyond a good sized gravel driveway, the front door sits under a small porch and opens into a generous entrance hall and adjacent is an impressive dual aspect reception room with a bay window to the front and two feature fireplaces. An extension commissioned by the current owners has created a superb kitchen/dining space at the rear of the property with large bi-fold doors opening onto the garden. This lovely room is a particularly bright space with several rooflights and its generous proportions offer a flexibility of use, with plenty of room for relaxing or more informal dining. The kitchen is well planned with an excellent range of stylish units and timber worksurfaces and the design incorporates a large island with a breakfast bar. The ground floor accommodation also includes a smart shower room and a utility room accessed from the kitchen, and there is a garage with double doors to the front and access from the rear, which may offer further potential for extension if required.
There are three bedrooms on the first floor, all beautifully presented. The largest both have attractive fireplaces and they all have use of a dual aspect bathroom with timber panelling and a freestanding roll top bath. The sizeable east facing garden extends to over 170 feet in length and has been lovingly maintained by the current owners. Laid mainly to lawn, there are a number of mature trees and well stocked planting beds and the landscaping includes a paved seating area close to the house. There is a good sized timber workshop/shed and a beautiful Garden Room has been installed at the rear, an ideal space for relaxing or perfect as a home office.
