Why being on The Quadrant matters
Lots of agents say they’re local. We’re on the parade itself, so an inspection, a key handover or a chat about a leaking tap can happen without anyone driving across the county. Our opening hours are Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm, and Saturday 10am to 2pm.
Letting your Marshalswick home
Marshalswick grew from the 1920s, after the old mansion was sold, with a larger estate following from the 1950s. So there’s a real mix of homes, and two houses on neighbouring roads can have very different kitchens, gardens, insulation and energy ratings.
That’s why we’d rather see your home before talking numbers. A valuation is free, and because we’re nearby it’s no trouble to pop round. We’ll also tell you what to fix first and what isn’t worth spending money on.

Renting in Marshalswick
The Quadrant covers most day-to-day needs, with bakeries, a Sainsbury’s Local, an M&S food hall, a library and a Post Office counter. The Wick has a playground, a large field and a woodland walk. Fleetville, Bernards Heath and Jersey Farm are all next door.
Getting around
St Albans City station is under two miles from The Quadrant by road, and the fastest trains reach St Pancras in around 20 minutes. If you plan to commute, it’s worth testing that journey at the time of day you’d really make it before you sign.
Schools
Sandringham School, on The Ridgeway, is the local secondary. Places depend on Hertfordshire’s admissions rules rather than simply on your address, so check the council’s admissions pages and Ofsted’s latest reports first.
