4 bed detached house for sale

Sandpit Lane, St. Albans AL1

A handsome Arts & Crafts style detached family home occupying a substantial plot in one of St Albans' most sought-after residential locations, conveniently positioned for highly regarded schools, the mainline station and city centre. Set well back from the road behind mature screening, the property enjoys a high degree of privacy and, in our opinion, offers significant scope for enlargement, subject to the necessary consents.

The well-planned accommodation comprises a spacious entrance hall, cloakroom, sitting room, family room, kitchen/dining room and a ground floor bedroom with an en-suite shower room.

The first floor landing leads to three generous bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, together with a family bathroom.

The rear garden is a particular feature of the property, enjoying excellent screening and a good degree of seclusion. The extensive outside space offers further potential for extension, subject to planning permission. To the front, a driveway provides off-street parking and leads to the garage.
