Charlotte Close, St. Albans

This is a really well put together three bedroom home with a layout that makes sense, a south facing garden, two parking spaces and a garage opposite.

Inside, the current owners have clearly spent money in the right places. The bathrooms have both been refitted, the kitchen is modern, and the whole house has been kept in very good order. There is also further potential here, with scope to extend on the ground floor and into the loft, subject to the usual planning permissions.

The living room is a good size and gives you plenty of space for a proper sofa setup without the room feeling crowded. From here, the house opens into the kitchen and dining area at the rear, which is where the layout really works.

The kitchen has been refitted with high gloss units, marble effect worktops and integrated appliances including an oven, microwave, ceramic hob, extractor, fridge freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. There is enough room alongside for a dining table, so it feels like one proper social space rather than two separate rooms. Patio doors open directly onto the rear garden, which works particularly well in the warmer months.

There is also a ground floor WC, which is one of those practical extras that makes a real difference in a family home.

Upstairs, the main bedroom sits to the rear and has fitted wardrobes and drawer units, as well as its own refitted en suite. The en suite has been finished with a walk in double shower, vanity basin, WC and heated towel rail, giving it a smart, modern feel.

There are two further bedrooms, both a good size, along with the family bathroom which has also been updated. The bathroom includes a panelled bath with shower over, wash basin, WC and heated towel rail.

Outside, the rear garden is south facing and has a good balance of lawn and patio, giving you space for children, entertaining or simply sitting out in the sun. There is also a side passage back to the front of the house, a garden shed and an outside water supply.

Parking is another strong point. There are two allocated off street parking spaces to the front, as well as a single garage opposite the property with a roller door and additional parking in front.

Charlotte Close itself is a small modern development of just eight homes, which gives it a much more settled feel than some of the larger estates nearby. There are plenty of green spaces within walking distance, along with useful local shops and sports facilities, so a lot of everyday life is close at hand.

St Albans city centre is only a short distance away, offering a wider choice of shops, restaurants, cafés and leisure facilities, while the mainline station is also easily accessible for those commuting into London. For drivers, both the M1 and M25 are within convenient reach.

Families are particularly well catered for here too, with a number of highly regarded schools nearby. Oakwood Primary School, Beaumont School and Nicholas Breakspear Catholic School are all within easy reach, which is likely to be a big part of the appeal for buyers moving into the area.

For anyone looking for a three bedroom home that is already well presented, has genuinely useful outside space and parking, but still gives you the option to add more room in the future, this one offers a lot.
