Thanks for looking at our home. Our home opens up on to public heathland with a playpark located only seconds from the house. The town centre is a 10 minute (max) walk from our house. St Albans is a beautiful historical market town, we are walking distance to: cathedral, museums, parks, theatres, restaurants, supermarket, street market and lovely shops. Cycle paths and open countryside with country pubs & lovely walks are a few minutes away. 20 minutes fast, easy train to central London with hundreds of attractions. Easy airport access for London Heathrow, City, Luton or Stansted and even a direct train for Gatwick. Less than one hour to numerous theme parks, Windsor and Eton, Cambridge, Oxford, Hampton Court, Safari parks, historical houses and gardens.

Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

We live in a small close or cul-de-sac of houses. Most of the neighbours are retired and we are one of 3 families with school age children. We have lovely friendly neighbours. Our house backs on to a public heathland called Bernards Heath and we have a private gate directly on to the field and playground - 1 minute away. It takes 10 minutes to walk from the gate to the centre of historic St Albans. There is a corner shop which sells fresh bread and newspapers and other conveniences but supermarkets are also only a short dirve away. There is a market in St Albans on Wednesdays and Saturdays and it is well worth visiting. We love where we live for its proximity to Heartwood Forest and lovely walks, country pubs and yet also only 20 minutes fast train to London.
