Maythorne Close, Watford

A well-presented 1930's family home with much potential in a quiet cul-de-sac location close to good schools and transport links.

Overall Description - This is a pleasant semi-detached 1930's house that has double-glazed windows and gas central-heating (with a gas safety certificate) and has had a number of recent improvements, including internal redecoration and updated electrics (with a safety certificate). The property has three bedrooms, a bathroom and cloakroom on the first floor with an entrance hall, porch, open-plan sitting/dining room and galley kitchen on the ground floor. The property has a light and bright feel while still giving buyers scope for further improvement which may potentially include a rear extension, under permitted development rights, as other properties in the area have done (subject to the usual consents). Outside there is a private drive which could be enlarged if so desired and a 55' garden with raised patio, central lawn and two sheds. If you are looking for a well-presented family home with potential, in a good location close to good schools, then viewing is highly recommended. Please call to book in for the Open House on Saturday 29th August from 10am to 11am.

Location - This family home sits in a cul-de-sac location, so with no through traffic, in the popular district of Holywell, situated in West Watford and bordering the village of Croxley Green with its open green spaces and historic buildings. The area has good local shops, easy Metropolitan line access to London and close proximity to the shops and other amenities found in both Watford and Rickmansworth. Watford Underground Station, on the Watford Branch of the Metropolitan line, is under a ten minute walk away and there are excellent bus and road links, making this area very desirable with commuters. There are very good schools at all levels in the local area including the Ascot Road Primary School, St Anthony's Catholic Primary and Nursery School and Secondary Schools such as the Croxley Danes School, Rickmansworth School and Watford Grammar School for Boys. Croxley Business Park, just down the road, is a modern business hub attracting many small to medium size enterprises to the area. The local area features numerous parks including Cassiobury Park with its playgrounds and scenic, family-friendly walks along the Grand Union Canal and through Whippendell Woods. It is an excellent place to raise a family.
