Summary

The Property

An absolutely delightful, detached cottage situated in a secluded position just off King’s Road, a sought after cul-de-sac in the heart of the old conservation area, within easy reach of the city centre and both stations and close to St Michael’s Village, Verulamium Park & Lakes, and the Abbey.

Thought to have been two separate dwellings at one point, now combined to create a very special detached cottage, there is well-planned accommodation over two light and airy floors, all enjoying a splendid southerly aspect over a pretty, private rear garden.

The house has been the subject of a recent refurbishment to create an immaculately presented and very stylishly appointed interior. The living space to the ground floor includes a spacious through sitting dining room, with a door to the garden, several windows also overlooking the garden, a feature fireplace, and an attractive part timber, part glazed wall with double doors leading from the entrance hall.

There is a well-proportioned kitchen/breakfast room with French doors also leading to the garden, a vaulted glazed roof line and beautifully appointed handmade kitchen cabinets with timber counter tops and a quarry tiled floor.

Completing the picture to the ground floor is an entrance hall with a storage cupboard, while a turning staircase leads to the first floor where there are two comfortable double bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family bathroom. Like the ground floor accommodation, all three first floor rooms enjoy views over the south-facing rear garden. A hatch provides access to the loft space.

Outside

To the rear of the cottage is a well-proportioned south-facing garden, laid mainly to lawn there is also a brick paved terrace, fenced and planted boundaries and a well-tended vegetable garden with raised beds. To the front of the house, nestled between neighbouring gardens, is the front elevation of the cottage and the front door which sits at the end of a footpath leading from Kings Road, between numbers 10 and 12 King’s Road, where residents’ parking is also available,
