Property Oracle says ..
This property is a 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom detached house located in Marshalswick South, St. Albans. The property benefits from being close to highly-rated schools such as St Albans Girls’ School (Outstanding Ofsted rating) and Bernards Heath Junior School (Outstanding Ofsted rating), both within a kilometre. The location also offers convenient access to St Albans City train station, approximately 2.16km away, providing links to London and other parts of the country.
The property itself appears to be in excellent condition, having undergone a significant extension and modernisation. The images show a contemporary, well-maintained interior with a newly fitted kitchen and bathrooms. The extension has created a large open-plan living space with bi-fold doors leading to a garden. There is also evidence of a recently installed electric car charging point.
The property includes a garden, although the exact size is not specified. However, based on the photos, it appears to be a reasonably sized garden for a property of this type in St Albans.
Considering the average house price in the area is £783,409 and the average price per square foot is £720, the list price of £960,000 requires further analysis given the missing square footage data. However, considering the high standard of finish, the desirable location, and the inclusion of a garden, the price may be justifiable. More information regarding the size of the property is needed to provide a more definitive assessment of the value for money.
Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
