Description

Guide price £700,000 to £725,000. Hermitage Cottage dates from the 17th century and is Grade II listed.

Offering lots of charming original features including exposed brickwork, open fireplaces and timber beams, there is lots of character with views over the gardens from many of the rooms.

On the ground floor there is a sitting room, dining room and kitchen / breakfast room which opens onto the patio and gardens beyond. A ground floor bedroom and a good sized shower room / cloakroom provides a lovely guest suite if required.

Upstairs, which can be accessed via two separate staircases, there are three further bedrooms, with the main bedroom enjoying a lovely en suite with a rolltop bath and vaulted ceiling.

On the outside, the gardens are of a good size, extending the plot to just under 0.25 of an acre. There is much interest with a selection of mature shrubs, fruit trees and a patio terrace at the back of the house.

A rear driveway provides parking for several cars. This leads to a detached garage. The front garden is partly walled giving a pretty cottagey frontage to the street.

Location

Hermitage Cottage is conveniently positioned in the centre of Wareside, which has a well regarded pub, The Chequers Inn.

Additional amenities can be found in Ware and Hertford, including some boutiquey type shops, pubs and restaurants, some of which front onto the river in Ware itself.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
