Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
Available for the first time in almost fifty years, this property is a rare gem and one of the first built and most significant properties within the Hall Park area.
From entry via the entrance hall, the richness of materials used to build this fine property become immediately apparent. This includes a magnificent staircase with an exposed wooden handrail with hand carved balustrades and spindles. The impressive theme continues with original exposed wooden doors which have crystal handles and matching picture rails. The attractive multi pane windows are also a feature throughout the property with most rooms being double aspect, there are also a pair of octagonal windows to either side of the main entrance to the house.
The principal rooms include a spacious through reception room which provides a generous dining area that’s adjacent to the kitchen and a comfortable sitting area that has an attractive bay window with window seats below and an impressive feature fireplace with a wood burning stove. There is a cosy family room which would make an ideal TV room or a study if preferred and a downstairs cloakroom. The property has a traditional kitchen which leads to a semi open planned breakfast room, a walk in pantry and a separate utility room.
The first floor landing is accessed via the magnificent staircase and enjoys views across the valley towards open countryside. It also provides access to five bedrooms, including the master bedroom with en suite and balcony, the family bathroom and the spacious loft, which has tremendous potential for conversion, subject to the usual consents.
The gardens are a particular feature of the property and would be ideal for a family or keen gardeners. The rear garden has a large patio which overlooks a large area of lawn and mature planted borders including a variety of beautiful shrubs and small trees. Gardens like this take years to come to fruition and this one provides different areas of interest and colour throughout the seasons. There is a double width garage and generous parking for a number of vehicles, whilst set within a gated entrance.
The town centre is within walking distance of the property and has a vibrant High Street with an eclectic mix of shops, restaurants, wine bars and public houses along with Waitrose, M&S and Tesco supermarkets.
The mainline railway station serving London Euston in as little as 34 minutes, is also within walking distance. There are a number of preferred schools for children of all ages in both the public and private sectors.
Berkhamsted is surrounded by beautiful countryside, on the edge of the Chiltern Hills, including the National Trust administered Ashridge Estate and has the Grand Union Canal running through its centre. There is excellent access to surrounding areas via the A41 bypass providing a fast link to the M25 and the M1. Luton and Heathrow airports are just 17 and 27 miles respectively.
