Description

Nestled in the desirable Marshalswick district of St Albans, this traditional NASH-built three-bedroom semi-detached residence holds significant potential for renovation and expansion (subject to planning permissions). Its location is ideal, being within a short distance of respected schools and local amenities. The property features a warm entrance hall that leads into a generously sized lounge, complemented by a fitted kitchen and a separate dining area that opens into the garden. A practical downstairs WC adds to the ground floor convenience. Moving upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms alongside a family bathroom, creating a comfortable environment suitable for families. Outdoors, the private rear garden offers privacy with its backdrop of woodland, while the front yard includes off-road parking and access to a garage. With proximity to local schools and shopping facilities — just under two miles from St Albans City Centre and its mainline rail services to London — this home provides a compelling opportunity for those looking to enhance it into a tailored family retreat in one of St Albans' most sought-after areas.
