About this property

Georgian 4 bed historic house,100m City Centre w/ garden & free private parking

Stunning Georgian/ Regency detached, house in Central St Albans in the Cathedral Conservation area. As such the house is just a 4 min walk to the incredible shops, bars, restaurants and amenities of St Albans. The mainline train station is just over 10 minutes’ walk away and offers a fast train to London in 17 Minutes, every 10 minutes. We can sleep up to 7 people. We have a sun trap courtyard garden and there is free parking in front of our gates which in central St Albans is a rare find.

Our home is a very well-presented character 3/4-bedroom townhouse on 3 floors that sleeps 7 people. There are up to 4 bedrooms, a family bathroom and fully loaded kitchen with all appliances. Separate dining room with large dining table and a Hoffman baby grand piano available for classics or a good old singsong. A cosy basement with a lounge with wall mounted TV and separate WC as well as the main bathroom. Sun-blessed south facing ‘heated’ rear garden with a range of games and activities for guests to enjoy including a 4-hole mini-golf course, darts, backgammon, shuffleboard and table tennis.

St Albans is an historic city, and this property was formally inhabited by a Senior Government Minister who worked for the Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher. Unconnected to this, St Albans has potentially more pubs per capita than any other City in the world. The Farriers Arms, which is literally across the road, is where the world-famous CAMRA was founded. As part of your stay, to introduce you to the ‘local’ lifestyle, we will buy the first drink in the pub for all guests (ask for Frazier or Jack) and hope you continue to support local businesses.

There is a ‘fun bible’ in our house where we provide you with the best of everything you could possibly enjoy in the City of St Albans and surrounding areas. We have details for our guests at some of the top restaurants, bars, entertainment and sports venues.

You will have access of the whole property. Two keys will be provided.

There is superfast 5G broadband available throughout the whole property which can support multiple devices.

The garden shed has a beer and prosecco fridge which we encourage you to use. There are a wide range of indoor and outdoor games available. We also have two inflatable 9-foot kayaks in our shed which are available for you to take to the local lakes and rivers. The ‘bible’ includes details of some of the best routes to kayak.
In the City of St Albans there are hundreds of eating and drinking venues including family-owned bistros up to globally recognised chains including Cote, The Ivy and Five Guys.

St Albans has an incredible cathedral on the edge of Verulamium Park which is approximately 200 metres from the property. The park is awesome with a free splash park, trampolines, crazy golf, outdoor gym, play park, 9-hole golf course, beach volleyball, football, cricket and an athletics track.

There are regular open air concerts featuring the top artists from pop to comedy.

About the host

Hosted by Chris Butterworth

Host profile image
We are a fun loving couple and have loved living in our house for the last 15 years. We have another property nearby so can be on hand if required. You will be bang in the centre of St Albans, with over 20 pubs and restaurants within a 5 minute walk. We are on first name terms with most of the landlords.

We also have a house in Cape Town and are spending our life between the two. We have 4 kids who have all flown the nest, but if we are away then they should be around to help, if needed.

Why they chose this property

Stunning architecture, perfect example of a Georgian House with symmetry both inside and out. The living areas are incredibly comfortable and the garden is made for fun.

The M25 is 10 minutes away and there is an off street parking space available, which is incredibly rare in St Albans. But if you don't have a vehicle it is a 10 minute walk to the mainline station or less than £10 in an Uber. Luton, Gatwick and Heathrow airports are also very accessible.

What makes this property unique

By living here you can be immediately central to St Albans life. And whilst London is only 20 minutes away, you will feel like you are living in a very friendly village where the friendly bar staff will welcome you with open arms.

We have a courtyard garden, which is a sun trap from lunchtime onwards and the rest of the house is designed so that you will not be on top of each other with separate living spaces for each of the 4 bedrooms.
