Arranged over THREE FLOORS, the property retains an abundance of original features and enjoys a wonderfully large rear garden, all within walking distance of St Albans’ vibrant amenities and the mainline station.
The home opens into a cosy and inviting living room, rich in character with an exposed brick feature wall and traditional fireplace creating a warm focal point. From here, there is direct access into a charming kitchen, thoughtfully arranged for everyday practicality while maintaining the cottage feel.

The top floor is dedicated to the principal bedroom suite, offering excellent privacy and a lovely sense of retreat. This space benefits from extensive eaves storage and a separate dressing room, providing both practicality and a layout rarely found in homes of this style and age.
Outside, the rear garden is a true highlight — beginning with a pebbled seating area perfect for morning coffee or evening dining, leading into a long lawned garden bordered by planting and fencing that ensures a peaceful, private setting. The length of the garden provides ample space for play, entertaining or future landscaping, making it a real asset in a city-centre home.
