Description

This generously sized detached home features three bedrooms along with two additional loft rooms, providing a solid foundation for a family-oriented renovation project. Located within a desirable area near local amenities and reputable schools, the property is ripe for enhancement. While it requires some updating to meet modern living standards, the potential to extend and reconfigure the living space is significant, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions. Spanning three floors, the ground level comprises an entrance hall leading to three reception areas, a fitted kitchen, and a large conservatory that opens into the back garden. A separate utility room and a shower room add functional value. On the first floor, you’ll find three spacious double bedrooms equipped with built-in storage, plus an ensuite bathroom in the principal bedroom. The family bathroom and an additional WC serve the other bedrooms well. The second floor houses two expansive loft rooms that could be transformed into versatile spaces, provided buyers confirm compliance with building regulations for usage as bedrooms. The property is set on an ample plot with a driveway offering off-street parking. At the rear lies a mature west-facing garden featuring established greenery, patio space for outdoor entertainment, a pond, and useful outbuildings - all of which present opportunities for landscaping and personal touches. Situated in the charming village of Redbourn, this home enjoys proximity to both local shops and transport links to St Albans and London. This community-centric location boasts inviting pubs and recreational areas including a popular common with cricket facilities.
