Glebe House is one of the finest houses situated in the popular Pelhams, an area of unspoilt rural Hertfordshire countryside. The house is believed to date back to 1738, a Grade II Listed building of architectural and historical interest. Most of the fine original features remain and the property provides excellent well planned family accommodation laid out over three floors together with a large cellar.
Of particular note is the Drawing Room, centred on an attractive open fireplace with views over the mature gardens to the rear of the house and double doors opening through to the Sitting Room/Cinema Room. The kitchen has been extended over the years and now provides comfortable dining and sitting areas as well as an oil fired Aga. The bedroom accommodation is comfortably arranged over two floors with the principal suite extending across the whole of the first floor incorporating a newly installed bathroom.
The gardens and grounds provide a mature and tranquil setting for the house, laid mostly to lawn, studded with a selection of mature trees. There is a swimming pool and an all-weather tennis court both in need of repair.
Situated across the lane is a level, paddock of approximately 0.75 acre
Little Hormead is a popular East Hertfordshire village approximately 3 miles from Buntingford, where there is a school, shops and other facilities. The A10 trunk road is approximately 2 miles from the village and provides road links with Hertford, Ware, the M25 and London. There is a local village school in Great Hormead and further local shops and school in Braughing, approximately 3 miles to the south. The market towns of Bishop’s Stortford and Hertford offer more comprehensive amenities including mainline stations to London’s Liverpool Street (approximately 30 minutes). On the outskirts of Bishop’s Stortford access may be gained to the M11 motorway (J8) linking with London, the M25, Cambridge and the Midlands.
There is an excellent selection of both primary and secondary schools in the district including Heathmount, St Edmunds, Bishops Stortford College, The Purse, The Leys and Haileybury College
