The property
The lovely property is light and spacious, offering bright accommodation – many of the rooms enjoying lovely views over the south-facing communal gardens. The main living space is split into two good-size reception rooms, joined by an archway with an open plan aspect though remaining separate. The dining room is at the front, while the sitting room at the rear with windows on the south and west sides and a door opening to a private terrace and onwards to the gardens. The kitchen can be accessed from both the dining room and the main hallway and is appointed with both wall and base cabinets. It’s a good-size room with space for a breakfast table. The bedrooms are both an excellent size and are fitted with built-in wardrobes: The principal bedroom has an en suite shower room, while the second bedroom has access to a further shower room/cloakroom. Within the central hallway there are fitted cupboards providing useful storage.

The apartment block enjoys a generously sized and well-placed plot set back from the High Street with excellent pedestrian and vehicular access to local amenities and transport links. To the front of the block is an allocated parking area with space for residents; here, the apartment further benefits from a single garage en bloc with a space in front. Well maintained landscaped grounds surround the block, including lovely lawns on the southern side which are enclosed by mature beech hedges and bordered by beds of shrubs and established planting. A private terrace provides space for garden furniture, overlooking the gardens.

Harpenden has a thriving High Street and comprehensive range of shopping facilities, including Sainsbury’s, Waitrose and a Marks and Spencer store. It boasts an excellent selection of restaurants, coffee shops and numerous independent shops.
