Abbey View Road, St. Albans, Hertfordshire, AL3

Located in a highly sought after cul-de-sac in the heart of the old conservation area, is this superb four double bedroom, bay fronted, elegant period residence, with off- street parking and a west-facing garden.

The property, which features in the classic 1960's film, ‘Hand in Hand’ is in first class condition throughout, with a neutral colour scheme and carefully blends period features with modern touches.

A standout feature of this fantastic property is the large driveway providing off-street parking - an exceptional rarity in this part of the Abbey conservation area. The added benefit of a dropped kerb allows for additional on-street parking, exclusive to the property, for a second car.

The light filled living room with a magnificent, working Victorian fireplace, enjoys fitted shutters and the west facing dining room has double doors opening onto the side courtyard.

A separate, fully modernised ‘shaker-style’ kitchen, with underfloor heating, range cooker, washer/dryer, dishwasher and breakfast bar, opens with French doors directly onto the back garden. On the upper floors, there are four well-proportioned double bedrooms, a family bathroom and shower room.

The house was fully rewired and all plumbing modernised by the present owners. It boasts Ash wood flooring and high ceilings throughout, fitted shutters in all bedrooms and bespoke wooden fire doors to all rooms. There are five beautifully restored, Victorian, working fireplaces in the lounge, dining room and three bedrooms.

The property also has an easy maintenance garden with a useful shed for storage and patio. This fabulous home enjoys stunning views of St Albans cathedral, it is within a short walk of many local playgrounds and parks and is in a peaceful, residential cul-de-sac.

This property is ideally situated within minutes’ walk to both St Albans high street and St Albans City Station with fast trains to St Pancras International. St Albans Abbey station is also nearby with a regular train service into Watford Junction. Well-regarded primary and secondary schools are very easily accessible.

The historic city of St Albans has much to offer including many shops, restaurants and pubs, and a twice-weekly market. The Abbey, St Albans museum and gallery, Verulamium museum, St Michael's village and the beautiful Verulamium park and lakes are all within a short walk.
