Jukes Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this very well-presented two-bedroom first-floor flat in Waterford on the outskirts of the popular market town of Hertford.
The two-bedroom first-floor flat is in very good decorative order and has been extremely well looked after by the current owner. The property has two very good-sized double bedrooms with a modern bathroom and kitchen.
The lounge is a very good size and comes with a juliette balcony overlooking the back of the property, where you will find space to park your car.
The property also comes with a good-sized garden and has a communal washing area. If you want a rural, quiet location but only a small distance from Hertford, this one is definitely for you.
Hertford Train Station is a 5-minute drive away and a couple of minutes more to reach Hertford town centre.
Here's a glimpse into Waterford and its surroundings-charming village scenes, peaceful riversides, lush heathland and nature trails.
Living near Waterford, just north of Hertford, offers a beautiful blend of scenic countryside, vintage architectural charm and easy access to the cultural richness of Hertford town. The centerpiece in Waterford itself is the Grade II*-listed church of St Michael and All Angels, an exquisite example of Victorian Early English Gothic that features a remarkable array of Pre-Raphaelite stained-glass windows by Burne-Jones, William Morris and others
. Nearby sits the historic Goldings country house, now apartments, with poignant links to its time as a Dr Barnardo's home and graves in the churchyard.
.A short wander leads you into Waterford Heath, a 35-hectare local nature reserve scattered with grassland, scrub, woodlands and wetland areas. It's home to skylarks, willow warblers, grass snakes and slow worms, and even features a public sculpture by Andrew McKeown atop the north heath
Trails here offer quiet walks among restored quarry landscapes and abundant wildlife.
Hop over to Hertford and you'll find plenty that enriches daily life. Hertford Castle and its gardens make for a splendid backdrop for picnics or outdoor relaxation, while the Norman-built gatehouse adds regal historical flair
Christina in the Clouds
Hartham Common, nestled where the River Lea meets the Beane, is a playground for all ages-swimming, skating, canoeing, kids' play areas, sports fields, a gym and scenic river paths.
.
Culture thrives at Hertford's Corn Exchange or Hertford Theatre (also known as BEAM), where performances span drama, comedy, music and film screenings, including special events from the National Theatre and RSC
.The museum housed in a 17th-century townhouse might hide a quirky treasure trove-from fossils to Japanese armour to thousands of toothbrushes from the local Addis factory
There's a lovely buzz around Hertford's streets too. Independent boutiques, antique shops and artisan markets line its lanes, while the monthly farmers' market delivers fresh local produce and handmade goods
Coffee lovers and foodies can enjoy unique spots-Tilly's Gelato is a sweet favourite among locals, Tea on the Lea offers scenic riverside treats, and restaurants like Lussmanns or Dirties serve memorable meals in welcoming settings
Plus, the countryside beckons. The Cole Green Way is a flat, leafy trail ideal for cycling, walking or horseback riding-following the path of a former railway from Welwyn Garden City to Hertford
And Panshanger Park, just outside town, is a sprawling estate of wetlands, meadows and woodlands where ospreys and kingfishers have been spotted-and came to the public as a nature reserve after quarrying ended.
Local voices confirm the appeal. One resident reflects:
"Whenever friends who are not from the area come to visit they always applaud how much great character the town has."
"Panshanger park is a nice place for nature walks..."
So whether you're drawn to the tranquility of Waterford Heath, the architectural elegance of Victorian churches, the cultural pulse of Hertford's theatre, or the easy rhythm of riverside and countryside adventures-this patch of Hertfordshire brings rich experiences to everyday life.

Jukes Estate Agents - Harlow
Harlow Enterprise Hub, Kao Hockham Building, Edinburgh Way
Harlow, Essex
CM20 2NQ
01279 246289We have offices throughout Hertfordshire & Essex, and as we are both Herts & Essex men, and have both been “round the block” a few times, we have a vast knowledge of not just the Herts & Essex property market, but the actual towns, villages, and hamlets in which we work. This we believe is vital! We got together a few years ago & formed Town & Country Herts & Essex, and we opened our first shop/office in Harlow, which today is our main HQ. We decided from day one that this had to be an ESTATE AGENCY WITH A DIFFERENCE. We listened to what people had to say about their bad experiences with other companies, and put together a structure that has proved extremely successful. What you now have is a truly local Estate Agency that is working not only for the people of Herts & Essex, but for the local communities as well. JUKES ESTATE AGENTS SPONSOR SEVERAL SCHOOLS, JUNIOR FOOTBALL CLUBS, AND LOCAL CHARITIES THROUGHOUT BOTH COUNTIES! Our ethos is to never use the “dubious and/or dated” methods used by many of our contemporaries. Therefore, you will get: Accurate valuations, superb marketing, and a customer service model that we are sure is second to none! WE ONLY TAKE ON A LIMITED AMOUNT OF PROPERTY so that we can guarantee we can give you the service you and your home deserves! Therefore, when you use Jukes Estate Agents, you will deal with one of the owners. Someone who genuinely cares about every client. Someone who will be with you every step of the way from Valuation to Completion of Sale!
