Removals Harpenden

Moving to Harpenden

If you’re moving to Harpenden from other parts of the UK, here’s some interesting facts about the area:

Harpenden is a town in the City and District of St Albans, Hertfordshire. It’s a small residential town sat between St Albans and Luton, and lies 25 miles north west of London.

With direct rail connections into Central London, Harpenden is considered a commuter town, which is reflected in its property prices which are more than triple the national average!

During the past century the population has exploded, increasing tenfold. Yet despite its local residents growing from a mere 3,000 people to nearly 30,000 to the present day, this has not caused the once small village to lose any of its charm and character.

Currently, a property in the town will set you back well in excess of a whopping £880,000, making Harpenden an exclusive area for the wealthy and affluent market.

Historically Harpenden goes back to the Roman ages, with several archaeological discoveries found in the late 1800’s including a bronze escutcheon, rams-head shaped mounts, and a bronze bowl.

There’s also Roman remains in the land around Harpenden, most notably the site of a mausoleum in the park at Rothamsted.

Nowadays, Harpenden is an ideal place to raise a family. There’s plenty of state schools and private schools in the area.

The town regularly hosts events in keeping with its quaint village vibe. But as mentioned above, the cost of homes in the area make it inaccessible for lower income families. High net worth individuals in the area are commonplace.
