Description

This semi-detached house presents a significant opportunity for renovation and investment in a sought-after residential area of Watford. With three bedrooms and two reception rooms, the property is structured to accommodate the needs of a family while offering ample scope for modernization and expansion. The ground floor features a lounge with a bay window, providing natural light, and a separate dining room that opens to the kitchen. The kitchen, equipped with essential appliances and cabinetry, could benefit from an update to enhance its functionality and style. A conservatory extends the living space, offering potential for use as a playroom or additional sitting area. Upstairs, the three well-proportioned bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation. While currently functional, these rooms offer potential for reconfiguration or enhancement to maximize their appeal. The family bathroom features both a bath and shower cubicle but may require updating to meet modern expectations. Outside, a driveway provides parking for two cars, adding convenience to the property. The rear garden is well-maintained with patio space and lawn area; it holds potential for landscaping or even expansion if desired (subject to planning permission). Located within walking distance of Watford Metropolitan Station and key roadways like the A41, M25, and M1 motorways, this home offers excellent transport links. Local amenities including shops, parks like Cassiobury Park, and reputable schools—such as Watford Girls Grammar School—enhance its attractiveness for families. With no upper chain involved in the sale process, this property not only serves as an ideal family home but also represents an opportunity for buyers looking to invest in improvements while enjoying the benefits of a prime location.
