Hemel Hempstead is a post-war new town in Hertfordshire, offering affordable housing and good transport links to London Euston. Popular with families and first-time buyers priced out of London, it combines practical amenities with access to the Chiltern Hills while retaining a functional, utilitarian character rather than historic charm.
