Holly Close, St Albans, AL1
St Albans – Freehold – £850,000
Full Description
A short walk south of St Albans City Centre lies Holly Close, a private, gated cul-de-sac that provides an ideal backdrop for this exquisite, three bedroom detached contemporary home. Throughout, the interior has been finished with meticulous attention, with a neutral palette and expansive glazing (manifested through bi-folding doors) working harmoniously to create a warm and wonderfully bright space. The property itself has a handsome façade, finished in a red, Hampshire stock and tile cladding, all enclosed neatly behind a maintained front garden with side-gate access and allocated parking for two vehicles.
Entrance to the property is a beautifully bright hallway; a lovely place to meet and greet, and enjoy the convenience of a practical downstairs cloakroom on the left-hand side. Measuring at an impressive 24’8 x 16’8, an-open plan kitchen, living and dining space dominates the ground floor. The design incorporates neutral wooden flooring, stylish feature light fittings, and a modern fitted kitchen. Adorned with quartz surfaces, the kitchen's comprehensive range of cabinetry and appliances are laid out so everything is within easy reach. Natural light pours through expansive glazing at the rear.
A staircase ascends to the first floor, home to three generous bedrooms, one of which is currently being utilised as a dressing area. The second bedroom is equipped with a large, south-facing window which invites an excellent quality of natural light into the space. The principal bedroom remains stylistically cohesive with the rest of the house with feature-panelling, in-built cabinetry and a contemporary en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower enclosure.
Flowing from the rear of the house lies a north-easterly facing, secluded garden. A large decking at the front has been levelled to transition seamlessly from the open-plan living space. Positioned at the centre is an artificial lawn, surrounded by raised beds that complement the white, porcelain steps leading to a platformed, contemporary terrace, ideal for outdoor hosting and dining alfresco. Completing the garden is a 14ft, versatile outbuilding with power, currently being used as an office.

"After our initial meeting with Browns, we were impressed by their unique approach, which diverges from the traditional estate agent. Hertfordshire’s answer to The Modern House, setting the standard for the future of local estate agency!"
– Grant Forsyth, Local Seller
"Absolute delight to work with. To be honest, having worked with a few estate agents in the past, Browns put them all to shame. Browns were friendly, engaging and passionate, they also have a relatively unique proposition that marks them apart from every other estate agent I spoke with."
– Christopher Springall, Local Seller
"Transparency and honesty are at the forefront of their work ethic, and I would highly recommend Browns to any prospective seller or buyer."
– David Lazarus, Local Seller
"After viewing a property with Browns I thought it was refreshing to meet a very different kind of estate agent, we then went on to list our property with them and from start to finish, Browns have been amazing! Knowledgeable, professional and a new wave of estate agent which others should strive to be more like!"
– Emily Darlington, Local Seller
"Personable, knowledgeable and always willing to discuss the sale of my property and the market. After having a few less than satisfactory experiences working with other estate agents, Browns have completely changed my opinion on what estate agency is."
– Franki Alpert, Local Seller
"To say the experience with Browns was brilliant is an understatement, it was the best decision we made to go with them. It's so far removed from the traditional way estate agents work and better in every way. "
– Maiko Skorupski, Local Seller
