Dating from the early 19th century, 5 College Street is an elegant red brick family home offering flexible light-filled accommodation arranged over four floors, sensitively modernised to combine the amenities of modern living with period features including large sash windows and high ceilings with fine cornicing. The ground floor accommodation flows from a welcoming wooden-floored reception hall and briefly comprises a generous study and a well-proportioned sitting room, together with a fitted utility room with cloakroom and a door to the rear garden. Stairs from the reception hall lead down to the lower ground floor which offers an extensive kitchen/dining room with a range of contemporary wall and base units, Corian worktops and splashbacks, modern integrated appliances, space for a good-sized table and French doors to the rear garden, the whole combining to create an ideal family and entertaining space.
On the first floor the property offers a large family room, a well-proportioned double bedroom and a contemporary fully-tiled family bathroom with bath and separate walk-in shower. The generous principal bedroom and the property's remaining double bedroom, both with built-in storage, can be found on the second floor.
The property is located in the heart of the Cathedral Quarter in the old conservation area and within very easy reach of the city centre, with its wealth of amenities including shopping and leisure activities, Verulamium Park, The Abbey, St. Michael's Village and very well-regarded local schools. The mainline station, with its fast through services via St. Pancras International to the City (19 mins), Gatwick and beyond, is also close at hand. Road users enjoy easy access to the M1, M25 and the A1(M) and to the airports at Heathrow, Luton and Stansted.
The area offers a wide range of nearby state primary and secondary schooling including Loreto College (rated Outstanding by Ofsted), as well as a good selection of independent schools including St. Albans, St. Albans High School for Girls and St. Columba's College.
Having plenty of kerb appeal and set behind original cast iron railings with spearhead standards and ball finials, the property is approached over steps rising from the pavement to a feature arched panelled front door with radial fanlight. The walled garden to the rear features a raised area of level lawn bordered by well-stocked flower and shrub beds together with numerous seating areas and a paved terrace, ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining.
The property also benefits from off street parking spaces for 2 cars situated adjacent to 1 College Street
