This spacious split-level property on the esteemed Gabriel Square development is a cool, contemporary home, with courtyard and communal gardens, underground parking, and just a short stroll to stations and into the city centre.
The Property
Gabriel Square is an exclusive and esteemed development of just 80 homes, designed by renowned architects and interior designers, and built on a former printworks in 2017. The scheme has won multiple awards, including from The Sunday Times and the Evening Standard.
What makes Gabriel Square stand out is its modernist, minimalist style, contrasting yet complementing St Albans’ period properties. White-rendered exteriors are akin to London townhouses, while clean lines and simple shapes add a cool, contemporary twist.
At the heart of the development is a communal garden, combining lawns and landscaping, extensive planting, plenty of seating, plus sculptures by an rhs Chelsea Flower Show winner. This central square is not only useable outdoor space, but an oasis for residents and their guests to enjoy.
103 London Road is set at the entrance to the estate, in the middle of a terrace. It has two of its own private courtyards, one off of each bedroom, and a balcony from the kitchen/diner ideal for morning coffee or evening drinks. These are practically zero maintenance, perfect for busy professionals and families, or if the home is a rental or a bolthole. The property comes with an allocated underground parking space, securely accessed via fob, and bikes can be brought through into the gated rear courtyard for outside storage.
The internal accommodation is split over four levels, with living spaces on the top two, and bedrooms and bathrooms below. The home has underfloor heating throughout, with each room individually temperature-controlled. Engineered oak flooring runs through the living spaces, while the bedrooms are softly carpeted and the bathrooms are tiled.
You enter into the lounge, which is impressive and spacious, with super-high ceilings and lots of natural light. The kitchen is on the level above, fitted with charcoal Poggenpohl cabinetry, white Corian surfacing, a Blanco sink and Neff appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is a generous utility cupboard with additional storage and space for further appliances.
Both bedrooms are large doubles, with room for king beds as well as other furniture. Bedroom one also has a bank of full-height built-in wardrobes and benefits from an en suite shower room. The en suite, the family bathroom and the cloakroom are all in a simple yet chic design. Lastly on the lower levels is a generous cupboard. This is useful for storage, but could be converted into a small office space for those working from home.
The Position
Gabriel Square is in a prime St Albans position, and London Road runs uphill directly into the centre of the city. A wide array of cafés, restaurants, pubs, retail and entertainment are mere minutes from the front door on foot, and The Odyssey art deco cinema is opposite the development. There’s always something to do in St Albans, from sports and leisure to arts and crafts, and the city has beautiful parks and green spaces, as well as its famous cathedral and array of historical buildings.
Also within walking distance of the address are mainline stations, with commuter services into London St Pancras in as little as 20 minutes from St Albans City, and into London Euston in c.40 minutes from St Albans Abbey. Services from St Albans City continue to Luton and Gatwick airports and end in Brighton, and St Albans is between the M1 and the A1 for local and national travel.
Schooling in St Albans is well-regarded, with the closest to Gabriel Square rated highly by Ofsted. There’s independent education in the city, as well as further education at Oaklands College and the University of Hertfordshire.
