Full Description: This refurbished residence, ideal for a family, is set on a plot approaching 0.2 acres along a sought-after Redbourn road, within a short walk of schooling, the village centre, and just a 10-minute drive to Harpenden and St Albans with main line trains (20mins) to London.The PropertyOnce a traditional 20th-century home, the property has been recently refurbished, creating a modern family residence.  Ray Lovejoy (cinematographer on Aliens, Batman (1989), The Shining and 2001 Space Odyssey) was a previous resident and earlier works on the home coincided with the release of his movies.   From external rendering and internal redecoration, to new anthracite windows and wood floors, to smart tech features such as Hive controlled lighting, curtains, blinds and heating, lots of work has gone into creating a fantastic family home. There’s still potential to be realised to create a staircase to extend into the large loft, offering the opportunity to create more bedrooms and bathrooms.The accommodation starts in the wide central hallway, where there’s space to bring in shopping, rally children and greet guests. The hall leads to the contemporary cloakroom and the double garage, and up the stairs to the bedrooms and bathrooms.The main living area to the left has been opened up to better suit a family. Being L-shaped, there are options to zone into whatever layout works for you. There’s space for a large table to host dinner parties, comfy sofas to watch films together, still with more room for reading and playing. The media wall to one end has recesses for a TV and games consoles, and cubbies for storage and to display items. Six-panel bi-fold doors across the back connect indoors with outdoors, particularly perfect for summertime.To the right of the ground floor is the kitchen, fitted in sleek grey gloss cabinetry. There’s a peninsula with additional storage, ample surfacing, and an inset sink with an Insinkerator. Integrated appliances include a five-ring gas hob, an oven, a grill and a microwave, a full-height fridge and a dishwasher. The adjacent utility room is in the same style, with more storage and surfacing, a second sink, and an integrated washing machine, tumble dryer and undercounter freezer, with loads of additional storage. The kitchen opens into the conservatory, which is currently used as a snug space. Surrounding windows give outlooks down the plot, and French doors open onto the garden for al fresco dining on the patio.There’s storage to a coat cupboard and an understairs cupboard. The double garage is accessible from the hall and is currently set up as a large gym.To the first-floor landing there is a large airing cupboard and to the loft via hatch.  All five bedrooms have space for a double bed as well as wardrobes with a very large primary bedroom and ensuite overlooking the rear large garden. With a generous landing there’s capacity to fit a staircase in for a loft conversion. Finally, there are two three-piece bathrooms. The family bathroom has been updated, and the en suite bathroom to bedroom one.The PlotThe plot here approaches 0.2 acres, with the house set back from the road behind high hedges. The frontage is predominantly gravel driveway, granting private off-road parking for multiple cars. EVs have a charging point, and cars needing cover have a double garage with remote controlled garage door.The gardens are well stocked with mature planting, including dense rhododendron and hydrangea, vibrant acers and dahlias, and a wide variety of more trees, flowers and shrubs. There are two apple trees in the rear garden including one believed to date from the original orchard of Crouch Hall Farm, as well as a kitchen garden, plus a hardstanding currently housing a large greenhouse. To the back corner, there’s also a brick-built store.With tall trees and high hedging along the boundaries, the garden is screened from neighbouring properties, affording all-important privacy—the most peaceful spot is on the bench by the pond. Facing west, you can enjoy this wonderful garden into the evening.The PositionCrouch Hall Lane is a leafy road desirable to those looking to live in Redbourn.
