House sales begin to rise towards the end of the summer and now is the perfect time to start scouting out new towns and cities. Today we put the spotlight on St Albans and showcase why this city is well worth a visit as a potential new home for families and professionals alike.
Location Location
St Albans provides the perfect bolt hole for those working in and around London. The city is located on the commuter belt, north of London, making it ideal for those wanting to live outside the capital but still be within easy access. You can drive in to London in under an hour, or hop on the extensive rail links which can get you in in less than 30 minutes.
Sitting Pretty
St Albans has well maintained parks and boasts a thriving high street and outstanding schools, making it popular with new home buyers. This pretty suburban area came out fourth in the list of top places to move to from London according to a survey by Countrywide. Out-priced by the capital rental market, renters and first-time buyers alike are making the move to St Albans because of its attractive property prices.
Historic City
If you love history, then you will love St Albans. There are over 2000 years of history to discover, from the famous 15th century clock tower, to the Verulamium Park which stands on an ancient Roman city. There are many things to see in St Albans, but be sure to check out the St Albans Museum and Art Gallery for family friendly fun. Set over three floors and with free admission, this is one attraction that you can keep coming back to.
Savvy Storage
Not only does St Albans do pretty, but it also does practical too. If you decide to make your visit to the city more permanent, then you’ll be glad to know it is home to one of the UK’s leading storage companies Magenta Self Storage. You can securely store almost anything for as little as two weeks, which makes this St Albans storage facility a huge help to those thinking of moving to the area.
