2 bedroom Bungalow (Sold)

Overall Description

This is a nicely presented semi-detached bungalow in a lovely quiet cul-de-sac location on the edge of Harpenden. The property has two bedrooms, a bathroom, sitting/dining room, entrance hall, kitchen and has a conservatory added to the rear. There are pleasant mature south-facing gardens, surprisingly private, and a long private driveway leading up to the garage. The property has gas central-heating, with a new Baxi boiler recently fitted, and double-glazing. It would be ideal for anyone looking to downsize in the local area or for people looking to escape London for some peace and quiet, as it may have scope for further extension, subject to planning.
