The property

With well planned light and spacious accommodation over three floors, this immaculately presented period town house offers flexible living space and comfortable bedroom and bathroom accommodation.

On the ground floor a tiled storm porch with a smart front door with glazed panels leading to a welcoming entrance hall, this leads to the main living accommodation and the stairs rising to the first floor.

At the front of the house there is an elegant formal sitting room, with plantation shutters to a generous bay window, fitted storage and an open fireplace with attractive surround and mantle.

To the rear is a further reception room, currently used as a family/TV room, it features wooden flooring and fitted storage and feature shelving and leads open plan to a stylishly appointed kitchen breakfast room.

This space has been superbly appointed with a low profile fitted kitchen with quartz counter tops, an integrated gas hob with a feature extractor over, double electric oven and space for further freestanding appliances including a large American style fridge freezer, all beneath a vaulted roof line with skylights, and bi fold doors from the breakfast area to the rear garden.

To the first floor there are two comfortable double bedrooms and a family bathroom, while on the second floor a further bedroom, with an ensuite cloakroom, has a glazed dormer to the front elevation and skylights to the rear elevation.

Throughout, this lovely property combines many charming character features with well-considered neutral interior design and contemporary detailing to create a beautiful family home.

Outside

The house sits behind a handsome brick-built bay-fronted façade and a walled townhouse style garden, laid mainly to planting with a tiled footpath leading to the tiled covered storm porch and front door. From the front of the house, particularly from the upper floors, are far reaching open views in the direction of St Albans over the rear gardens of Verulam Road.

To the rear of the house is a superbly presented west-facing garden that has been imaginatively landscaped to create a series of spaces ideal for al-fresco dining and entertaining while creating an exciting contemporary backdrop to this lovely home. Immediately to the rear of the house and accessed via bi-fold doors from the kitchen/breakfast room is a decked dining area with integrated seating and planters and a concealed storage area. This leads to a further seating area, paved in slate flags with an integrated corner sofa, feature lighting and a focal brick built open fireplace. At the end of the garden is a further concealed storage area. Gated passage to one side provides access to the front via a right of way over the adjacent garden.

Location

A highly sought-after old conservation area location in one of its very best roads, within easy reach of the Abbey, Verulamium Park & lakes, St Michael's Village, the city centre, both stations, well-regarded schools, and extensive local amenities.
