Local information about Harpenden

Harpenden is a town in the City and District of St Albans, within Hertfordshire. The town shares the AL5 postcode with the nearby Kinsbourne Green.

With twice-hourly Thameslink trains into London & St. Albans, Harpenden has become an increasingly popular commuter town. There are a whole host of housing options for anyone moving into or within Harpenden – new-build, modern flats & apartments complement older period properties, terraced houses and semi-detached family homes. But being such a convenient journey from the capital means that Harpenden properties won't come cheap - the town is one of the most expensive places to live in the country, with local house prices well above the UK average.

As well as being a convenient trip from both London & St Albans, there's plenty to do within Harpenden itself. The surprisingly green & leafy high street is home to plenty of independent shops, supermarkets and lots of restaurants and pubs for eating or drinking out. You're never far from green spaces in Harpenden, with Church Green, Leyton Green and High Street Greens all within close proximity of the town centre.
