This mid-century detached family home occupies a sought-after position within a desirable area of Harpenden. Set along a quiet residential street, the property offers generous proportions in attractive surroundings. Although now ready for updating, it presents an exciting opportunity for a new owner to create a superb family home tailored to their own style and requirements. The property also benefits from owning the Spinney in front ensuring your view is protected.

The property
Over the years this house has seen several extensions and improvements, including the provision of replacement glazing. Though in need of modernisation, the interiors have charm and character, such as a traditional stone clad fireplace in the sitting room. The accommodation is light-filled and well-proportioned, providing ample space for large families. It opens via a porch into the entrance hall with an adjacent WC and stairs to the first floor. From here, bi-fold doors lead to the expansive sitting room, enjoying a delightful triple aspect with patio doors opening onto the garden. A log burner provides a cosy focal point during the colder months. The room flows through to the dining room with further patio doors to the terrace – perfect for al fresco dining in the warmer months. The kitchen/breakfast room is traditional in style and offers an area for informal family dining. It includes an integrated oven and dishwasher, along with further space for a range-style cooker. The utility room provides a laundry area and useful storage. A study to the rear looks out upon the garden and would make an ideal home office or snug.

Upstairs and to the front of the property, the principal bedroom has a pleasant outlook and features built-in storage and an en suite shower room. Four further well-presented bedrooms, three of which are double in size, include built-in storage and are served by a good-sized family bathroom.

Outside
Situated on a quiet, residential street, this impressive home is approached via a substantial block-paved driveway, providing ample off-street parking. A well-maintained lawn, interspersed with mature trees, creates an attractive frontage that enhances this home’s sense of space and seclusion. A double garage with an electric door offers secure parking and storage, and a side gate provides convenient access to the rear garden.
