Full Description: This mid-century bungalow on Midway offers exceptional potential. Vacant and ready for its next chapter, the property presents an exciting opportunity for renovation and extension, or complete redevelopment into a substantial family home – a transformation many neighbouring properties on this street have already undertaken.<br /><br />The accommodation currently comprises a dual-aspect sitting room with French doors opening onto the garden. The kitchen is generously sized, and requires full renovation, providing excellent scope for reconfiguration and modernisation. There are three double bedrooms, one of which benefits from built-in storage, served by a family bathroom with a separate WC adjacent.<br /><br />Planning permission granted for the demolition of the existing dwelling and the construction of two semi-detached homes of approximately 1,800 sq ft each. Attractive opportunity to create a pair of contemporary family homes in a sought-after <br />residential setting. Further information relating to the planning consent is available upon request.<br /><br />To the front of the property is a substantial block-paved driveway providing ample off-street parking. Double timber gates lead through to the rear garden, which is fully enclosed and of a particularly generous size. A single garage and shed provide storage. Beyond the garden, mature trees create an attractive leafy backdrop and a sense of privacy. While requiring landscaping and maintenance, the outdoor space offers tremendous potential to create a superb family garden.<br /><br />The property is situated on Midway, a well-established residential road in the popular St Stephens area of St Albans. Favoured by families and commuters alike, the location offers a peaceful neighbourhood setting whilst remaining exceptionally well connected, with convenient access to the A414, M1, M25 and A1(M).<br /><br />A range of local amenities are available nearby, while St Albans city centre offers an extensive selection of shopping, leisure facilities, restaurants and cafés, together with highly regarded state and independent schools. The open spaces of Verulamium Park, the historic Abbey precinct and the surrounding countryside are all within easy reach. The property is well placed for rail commuters, with St Albans Abbey station approximately 1 mile away, providing services to Watford Junction and connections to London Euston and the wider rail network. St Albans City station is approximately 2 miles distant and offers fast and frequent Thameslink services to St Pancras International, Farringdon, City Thameslink, London Bridge, Gatwick Airport and beyond, with journey times to London St Pancras from around 20 minutes.
