This detached mid-century family residence is situated in a highly regarded area of Harpenden, benefiting from a peaceful residential street. While the property boasts ample living space and is surrounded by attractive landscaping, it is in need of modernisation—a fantastic opportunity for prospective owners to tailor the home to their personal style and requirements. Notably, the property includes ownership of the adjacent Spinney, ensuring that your views remain unobstructed.
The house has undergone various extensions and renovations over time, including updated glazing, yet retains charming features such as a stone-clad fireplace in the spacious sitting room. The interiors are bright and generously sized, ideal for large families. A welcoming porch leads into an entrance hall with an adjacent WC and staircase. The expansive sitting room benefits from triple aspect windows and patio doors that open onto the garden, complemented by a cozy log burner for colder months. Flowing seamlessly into the dining room with additional patio access to a terrace, this layout is perfect for entertaining.
The traditional kitchen/breakfast area offers informal dining space with existing integrated appliances and potential for further enhancement. A utility room provides practical laundry space while a study overlooking the garden could serve as an office or snug.
Upstairs features five well-sized bedrooms including a principal bedroom with built-in storage and en suite facilities, alongside three additional doubles plus a family bathroom.
Externally, the property stands out with a sizeable block-paved driveway offering plenty of off-road parking. The front lawn adorned with mature trees enhances its curb appeal while providing privacy. A double garage contributes to secure parking options.
The secluded rear garden is framed by established hedges and flowerbeds; it comprises an extensive lawn adjoining a paved terrace suitable for outdoor gatherings or relaxation in serene surroundings.
