3 bed detached house for sale

Farraline Road, Watford WD18

Detached family home with a driveway for 2–3 cars, 3 minutes’ walk to Watford Grammar School for Girls. No onward chain.

A well-presented detached three-bedroom home with an open-plan kitchen/dining room, its own driveway for 2–3 cars, a boarded loft with very good head height, a garage, a utility room and a private rear garden. It’s just 3 minutes’ walk from Watford Grammar School for Girls and 8 minutes from the Harlequin and Watford town centre. Offered with no onward chain.

This three-bedroom detached house has 1,085 sq ft of space (including the outbuilding) over two floors, plus a boarded loft, with a practical layout for family life.

The front door opens into a bright entrance hall with parquet-effect flooring, the staircase and under-stairs storage. The lounge is centred on a marble fireplace with a gas fire, and a front-facing window brings in plenty of light.

At the back of the house, the kitchen and dining room open onto each other to form the heart of the home. Sliding patio doors lead from the dining area straight onto the garden, which is ideal for entertaining in summer. The kitchen has modern white high-gloss handleless units with contrasting worktops, an integrated Bosch oven, a brand-new integrated washing machine (2026), a gas hob with a glass and stainless-steel chimney extractor, and a breakfast bar seating two. Recessed spotlights, a side window and a second door to the garden keep the room light and practical.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms off a landing with a side window. The principal bedroom and the second bedroom are both generous doubles. The third bedroom works well as a single bedroom, nursery or home office. The modern shower room has a large shower enclosure, a teal gloss vanity unit with plenty of storage, and a WC.

The loft is fully boarded, with a drop-down ladder. Its very good head height makes it useful storage now, with clear potential to create extra living space such as a bedroom, study or playroom (subject to the necessary consents). Heating and hot water come from a well-maintained, regularly serviced Vaillant combi boiler.

At the front, the house has its own driveway with off-street parking for 2–3 cars. That’s rare this close to the town centre and the Vicarage Road area. At the back, a low-maintenance artificial-lawn patio next to the house is ideal for outdoor dining. Beyond it, a paved area framed by mature trees and shrubs gives a good degree of privacy. A detached outbuilding contains a garage with double doors and a side door, plus a separate utility room. It offers useful storage, laundry space or a workshop, with potential to extend (STPP).

Farraline Road is 3 minutes’ walk from Watford Grammar School for Girls and within easy reach of Watford Grammar School for Boys and other well-regarded local schools. The Harlequin and Watford town centre are about 8 minutes’ walk away, and the green open spaces of Cassiobury Park are 15 minutes on foot. Watford General Hospital is 9 minutes’ walk, which makes the house ideal for hospital staff. Watford fc’s Vicarage Road stadium is just 4 minutes away, and with your own driveway, match days are easy. For commuters, Bushey station (22 minutes’ walk) and Watford Junction (25 minutes’ walk) both have trains to London Euston from under 20 minutes. Buyers should check school admission criteria directly with the schools.
