5 bed detached house for sale

King Harry Lane, St. Albans AL3

This beautifully presented 1930s detached family home sits on a generous plot in the ever-popular St Stephens area of St Albans. It’s in a brilliant spot—just a short stroll through the lovely Verulamium Park takes you into the city centre and to the stations. You’re also well placed for sought-after schools, and the back garden opens directly onto the peaceful greenery of St Stephen's Park.

The house itself is full of charm and space, spread out over three floors and ready to move straight into. As you arrive, there’s a handy storm porch leading into a welcoming entrance hall, which is full of natural light thanks to its stained glass windows.

Downstairs, you’ve got a choice of generous reception rooms, including a bright, bay-fronted dining room and a cosy living room with views and access straight into the garden. To the rear is a real highlight—an impressive kitchen/dining/family space that’s been tastefully extended with bi-fold doors, vaulted ceilings, and skylights. It’s a fantastic space for everyday family life and entertaining alike. There’s also a smart utility room and a ground floor WC for added convenience.

Upstairs on the first floor, there are four double bedrooms, a separate home office, and a stylish family shower room. The top floor has a lovely main bedroom with its own en-suite and useful eaves storage.

Outside, the house has plenty of kerb appeal with a classic 1930s design that blends red brick and timber features in a Tudor-style look. There’s a large driveway with space for several cars, neatly screened by mature hedging and trees. You’ll also find a small storage area with an EV charging point.

The rear garden is south-facing, in excess of 170ft and offers a great sense of space and privacy. Mostly laid to lawn, it’s surrounded by well-kept borders, established trees and shrubs, and has a lovely leafy outlook. A large patio area sits just outside the house—perfect for summer BBQs and outdoor dining—while a timber shed at the far end provides ample storage and a gated rear entrance allows direct access into St Stephen's Park.
