About
This lovely two bedroom end-of terrace home forms part of a small contemporary development in the heart of St Albans.
The front door opens into a bright entrance hall and the kitchen is adjacent, fitted with a range of white high-gloss fronted storage cupboards with contrasting wood style worktops and including a number of integrated appliances.
To the rear, and with French doors opening into the garden, the living/dining room provides plenty of space for entertaining and relaxing. There is also a useful cloakroom with w/c.
There are two bedrooms on the first floor, both of which can accommodate double beds and include fitted wardrobes, the smaller of the rooms currently serves as an excellent home office area.
There is also well planned bathroom with a window to the side of the property.
Outside, the property has a pleasant south-facing garden with a patio close to the house along with an artificial lawn area, raised planted beds, large storage shed and useful rear and side access gates.
The property also has the rare advantage of two allocated parking spaces next to the property. Elm Lawns Close is accessed from Avenue Road and has a quiet but convenient setting.
The wide range of amenities in St Albans city centre are close by and St Albans City Station is a short walk away where there are fast rail links into central London.
