It's well known that house prices have soared in the last twenty years, with the regions surrounding London seeing a significant rise, including Watford

Just like this five-bed, four-bathroom home on Oxhey Avenue that was last sold in 1998 for a price tag of £192,000, now more than twenty years later, the house is up for £1 million.

Although the property value has massively increased, it does have a lot to offer. 

Described as the ideal forever home, it is detached with a loft extension, annexe, summer house, and off-street parking and is less than a mile from Bushey train station.
