The property is listed at £775,000. A key highlight is the significant double-storey and ground floor extension, resulting in a very generous internal area, placing it amongst the largest homes currently available in this selection. This substantial size, along with four bedrooms and a good standard of modernisation, provides strong support for its current valuation. The property also features allocated parking and is freehold, which are typical for the area. However, its overall location and environmental ratings are moderate when compared to the top-rated properties in this group. An energy performance certificate was not available for review. Taking into account the considerable value added by the extensive living space due to the extension, the asking price seems well-aligned with market conditions. The suggested price band considers these elements, balancing its spaciousness against its comparative location.
The property is on average £7,318 more expensive than similar properties in the area

Location

This property enjoys a quiet cul-de-sac setting, a valued feature for tranquility, common among several well-placed homes here. It offers good access to Verulamium Park, though other local properties boast even closer proximity to major green spaces. While situated in a pleasant suburban area, potential ambient noise from a nearby main road is a moderate consideration, less impactful than for homes directly on busier routes.

Environmental Factors

The property is located on Ashdales, a quiet residential cul-de-sac, which significantly reduces through-traffic noise and enhances tranquility compared to properties on busier roads.
Good proximity to the expansive Verulamium Park, offering access to extensive green open spaces, lakes, and the River Ver for leisure and recreation, a distinct advantage over properties further from such amenities.
Situated within a well-established and generally pleasant suburban residential area characterized by mature greenery and a desirable neighborhood feel.
Potential for some ambient traffic noise from the nearby A5183 (St Stephen's Hill), which could be a disadvantage compared to properties in more secluded locations, though its impact may vary based on the property's specific position on Ashdales.
