The property
This unique and charming Grade II Listed property occupies a highly desirable location, in an end-of-terrace position in the heart of St. Albans’ historic Cathedral Quarter. Dating from the 17th century, the house features a variety of splendid original features, including exposed timber beams and original Inglenook fireplaces, while there is also stylish, contemporary fittings and décor throughout.
Together, the period character and modern features combine to make a deceptively spacious highly attractive living space.
The ground floor accommodation flows from a welcoming reception hall and includes a well-proportioned sitting room with an attractive brick-built fireplace, which retains its original timber lintel. There is also a dining room with French doors opening onto the rear garden and a kitchen and breakfast room with sleek, contemporary units and integrated top of the range appliances. From the rear of the kitchen stairs lead to a large garden room with a stunning vaulted ceiling and panoramic windows overlooking the rear gardens.
Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, including the principal bedroom with its en suite shower room. Two of the bedrooms have their own washbasins, while there is also a family bathroom.
Additionally, there is a basement room with a wine store that could be used for a variety of purposes.

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
