Ashbourne Lodge, Hatfield Forest – A Bespoke Gated Retreat

Tucked away in a discreet, highly private setting just moments from Hatfield Forest, Ashbourne Lodge is a one-of-a-kind, architect-designed residence offering generous space, elegant finishes, and wraparound gardens – all securely accessed via a private gated entrance.

The approach sets the tone: a long drive opens to an expansive parking area accommodating up to ten vehicles, framed by manicured lawns and mature trees. Step across the front patio and into a grand entrance hall, where floor-to-ceiling windows allow natural light to cascade through the home. This impressive space features deluxe windows to the front and rear, and an open landing above that adds to the sense of light and scale.

To the right, the main living room offers a warm, inviting feel, with patio doors opening onto a secluded terrace, a feature media wall, ambient downlighting, and a fireplace – perfect for quiet evenings. Opposite lies the true heart of the home: a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining, and family space with triple aspect light, bi-fold doors, and stylish white tile flooring that amplifies the brightness. Natural timber beams add texture and charm, while the kitchen itself boasts integrated appliances, including fridge, dishwasher, twin ovens, and an induction hob. A separate utility room provides further space, with washing machine, dryer, freezer, and side garden access.

To the left of the entrance hall, a hallway leads past the downstairs WC into a spacious ground-floor bedroom currently used as the principal suite. Here, a statement tinted glass wall allows for both openness and privacy, while wooden flooring, built-in wardrobes, a vanity area, and a luxury wet-room style ensuite complete the space. A storage cupboard within this room houses the underfloor heating system.

Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to a further three bedrooms. To the right, a generous double bedroom features another glass wall, loft access, and is served by a contemporary family bathroom. To the left, the fourth bedroom – though the smallest – still offers generous proportions and a deluxe window. At the far end, a large double bedroom makes a strong case for being the true principal suite, with its own ensuite shower room, additional storage, and views across the peaceful garden.

This distinctive home offers a rare combination of privacy, space, and design-led architecture – all within a stone’s throw of ancient woodlands and walking trails. Offered chain free and ready to move into, Ashbourne Lodge is the perfect retreat for those seeking something truly special.

Muvin – A Fresh Approach to Moving Homes Our mission is to elevate the standard of estate agency by delivering a superior experience for sellers while empowering our partner agents to build fulfilling, prosperous lives. Through better service and meaningful support, we raise the bar for everyone involved in a move. Founded in 2025 by Adam Mackay and Jamie Fisher, who share over 40 years of local experience, Muvin brings together two sets of partner agents under one brand with one clear vision. We’re a collective of like-minded partner agents and property marketeers, all working together with the same outlook and mindset: to make your move smoother, smarter, and more successful. Between us, we’ve helped thousands of families move locally — and our track record of results means you can trust us to deliver. Every home has its own story, and we’re here to tell it in the most compelling way. Through creative video marketing, thoughtful staging advice, and personalised viewings, we showcase what makes your property unique, helping it stand out and attract the right buyers. We don’t just rely on portals. Our marketing support team drives targeted digital campaigns, social media reach, brochure creation and community projects — ensuring your home is seen by the widest possible audience of qualified buyers. We’re also heavily focused on helping buyers find their perfect next home, guiding them with honest advice, local knowledge, and a personal approach that makes the journey exciting and stress-free. We take pride in sourcing off-market and discreet opportunities, because not every home sells on the open market. Our values are simple: be driven, be connected, be proud. That means we work harder, communicate better, and never forget we’re representing your biggest move. Our collaborative approach means you get the power of a whole team behind you, focused on achieving the best possible result for your move. Backed by eXp – a global network of more than 85,000 agents, we combine local expertise across Essex and Hertfordshire with worldwide reach.
