Chiswell Green Lane, St. Albans, Hertfordshire

The Property:

Offered to the market with no onward chain, a beautifully presented cottage in a lovely semi-rural location and within easy reach of local amenities. Offering bright extended accommodation with a west facing rear garden, the property also has parking provision for two vehicles.

Description:

Set perpendicular to the road, this pretty Victorian cottage is approached by a gated path and opposite the entrance the owners have installed a useful detached office. The front door opens into a porch which leads into a contemporary kitchen with a tiled floor. This well planned room has a window to the front and is fitted with a good range of wall and base units, as well as integrated appliances including a dishwasher and washing machine. The smart reception room is situated to the rear of the property, and this is a bright and airy space with timber flooring and a wood burning stove. Extended to the rear, and with a large lantern rooflight, it provides ample space for living and dining. Large bi-fold doors give views over and access to the secluded rear garden. Stairs from the kitchen lead to the first floor, where there are two well-presented bedrooms, the largest of which overlooks the rear garden while the second has views to the front. A fully tiled bathroom fitted with a white suite and a heated towel rail serves both rooms. A good sized loft space with pull down ladder is accessed from the first floor landing, providing useful additional storage. Externally, the house has a fantastic, landscaped west-facing garden, with patio seating area and planted borders. A shingle path leads to a shed to the rear, and onto a gate which provides direct access to two parking spaces.

Please note that planning approval has been granted for work to develop the land behind the property to build new housing.
