Description

This charming two-bedroom detached bungalow is positioned on a spacious plot in a sought-after residential neighborhood, directly opposite open parkland. The property is well laid out and presents considerable opportunities for expansion, whether through side or rear extensions, or by converting the loft (subject to planning permission). With no onward chain, this property invites renovation enthusiasts looking to create their ideal home.

Upon entering through the partly glazed front door, you are welcomed into an entrance porch that leads into a hallway featuring original wood parquet flooring and two handy storage cupboards. A hatch provides access to the partially boarded loft, hinting at its potential for conversion. The cozy lounge boasts a large window overlooking the front garden and includes the same parquet flooring along with a fireplace fitted with a log burner—ideal for those seeking warmth and character.

The kitchen/diner offers a range of wall and base units with worktops, along with an integrated hob and oven setup. This bright space benefits from dual aspects of light and connects to a lean-to that opens up to the garden, enhancing its usability. Two well-sized bedrooms include a principal room complete with fitted wardrobes. The property also features a modern shower room alongside a separate cloakroom for convenience.

Externally, the bungalow presents attractive low-maintenance landscaping complemented by a carriage driveway that accommodates ample off-street parking and provides access to a garage equipped with light and power—perfect for conversion into additional living space or storage. The sunny south-facing rear garden features a paved patio suitable for entertaining as well as raised beds, lawn areas, and an outdoor shed alongside secure side access.

Conveniently located near local shops and amenities, reputable schools, and transport links including St Albans city centre and mainline services, this property is an excellent investment opportunity for those looking to expand or enhance their living space.
