Why Move to Harpenden?
Harpenden is a highly sought-after town which boasts excellent education provision.
Situated in the beautiful county of Hertfordshire, much of which is protected by the Metropolitan Green Belt, the town has a wonderfully traditional English village atmosphere.

Via the fast train, it is just a 25-minute journey direct into St Pancras Station whilst road links offer easy access to several London airports and routes to other parts of the region.
Harpenden started life as a small farming village but grew and prospered as a commuter town after the arrival of the railway in 1860.
Today it is still a relatively small town with a population of just 30,000 however, Harpenden offers a lot for those wishing to start a new life away from the busy capital.
A good selection of pubs and restaurants are dotted throughout the area whilst a quick journey into London poses endless choices when it comes to eating out and internationally recognised entertainment venues.
The compact local high street is lined with a mix of chain stores and independent shops as well as several food stores such as Waitrose, Sainsbury’s, and a Co-op. Numerous commons and open spaces are available to all, including Harpenden Common. Church Green, Leyton Green and the High Street Greens, are popular places and attribute the town with its provincial feel.
Golf is a popular activity locally, and Harpenden has two golf clubs. The Harpenden Common Golf Club is an 18-hole course on the common. Featuring highly on the sporting calendar is cricket, rugby and football and Harpenden has clubs for each.
If you are lucky enough to be moving to this wonderful town, you will have much to look forward to; great travel links, good schools, a wide choice of green spaces and lots of clubs and societies to integrate yourself into the local community.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1524569602831{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][vc_gmaps link=”#E-8_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” size=”650″ css=”.vc_custom_1637155783638{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”top” css=”.vc_custom_1568105639600{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;background-color: #000000 !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1568105650633{padding-top: 40px !important;padding-right: 10% !important;padding-bottom: 40px !important;padding-left: 10% !important;background-color: #000000 !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}” el_class=”color-page-panel”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1637155869800{padding-right: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}”]
