Oswald Road, St. Albans, AL1

The Property
A spacious bay fronted Victorian end of terrace house arranged over three floors situated in a sought-after road within moments of the mainline railway station.

The property has been thoughtfully extended to the ground floor and has undergone an extensive refurbishment program by its current owners in 2020. It benefits from many fine character features including sash windows, wood flooring and feature fireplaces to name but a few.


This beautiful family home comprises an entrance hall leading through to a spacious dining room which opens out with period feature doors to a bay fronted sitting room with fireplace. This design allows versatility of having an open plan space or cosy separate rooms.

Leading off from a dining room is a superb bright and completely new and extended modern fitted kitchen/breakfast room with underfloor heating and lots of natural light flowing through with access via French doors to the low maintenance rear garden. With a downstairs WC and a very useful tanked basement room currently used as a playroom, which would work equally well as a spare room or office space, this property has been very thoughtfully and cleverly renovated.


To the first floor, there are three bedrooms, a modern fitted bathroom WC and a useful loft space. The principal double bedroom is to the front of the property with fully fitted wardrobes, and the bathroom comes complete with underfloor heating which was also renovated to make better use of the space in this home. A further double bedroom at the back of the property has large Velux windows to create a beautiful and versatile space with feature fireplace. A third bedroom completes this property with views of the garden.

Oswald Road is well positioned for ease of access to the mainline station being just moments away and the city centre just a short walk away. This home would make an ideal purchase for a busy commuter, family or investment buyer. Early viewing is highly recommended.


Local Area

The location of this home is ideal given its proximity to the station, making a London commute almost seamless as it is just 17 minutes on the fast train to St Pancras. Moments away are the beautiful art deco Odyssey Cinema; the Alban Way, a repurposed railway now heaven for cyclists and runners; as well as Clarence Park just around the corner. This house is also optimally located within the catchment area for several highly regarded schools. With St Albans’ bustling high street - complete with both independent and mainstream shops - and many bars and restaurants just a ten minute walk away, this property really has it all.
