House For Sale £975,000
Sophisticated, single-storey family home, close to town.
Description
Having been extended by the current owners, this stunning property offers a wonderfully spacious, open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with part vaulted ceiling to the family area and sliding doors opening onto the rear garden.
The kitchen is beautifully fitted, with quartz work surfaces, a central island with breakfast bar, and a range of appliances. A utility room adjoins, as well as a snug/fourth bedroom.
The principal bedroom has an en suite shower room, fitted wardrobes and French doors leading onto the rear terrace, while the two further double bedrooms are served by the family bathroom.
The rear garden has been designed to be low maintenance, and with entertaining in mind; a large composite decked area and a lower seating area are ideal for summer barbeques. There is outdoor lighting to all areas and a generous garden area that has been laid with artificial grass.
A further raised area is home to a Catalina Mardi Gras Swimspa, a swim trainer and spa and there is a sunken fire pit seating area. In addition, there is an office/family room outside, perfect for those working from home or for use as a play room or a space for teenagers.
The property also benefits from side access, plus private parking for at least two cars to the front of the property.
In terms of location, the property is also ideally placed; approximately ten minutes walk to the town centre and train station, yet offering a high degree of privacy. In addition, the property also benefits from access to a private residents pathway, that provides those wishing to commute
and in need of the train station.
Location
Berkhamsted itself is a busy market town, located to the west of Hertfordshire and just 30 minutes from London by train. Perhaps the town's most prominent role in National affairs came in 1066 when William the Conqueror was handed the English Crown. Berkhamsted Castle was built following the granting of the crown, and famous names associated with it include Geoffrey Chaucer who was Clerk of Works, and Thomas Becket who was Constable of the Castle in the 12th Century. Substantial ruins of the Castle still remain today.
Today, the town is highly desirable for commuters, with excellent transport links by road and rail. The mainline train station provides a regular and direct link to London Euston in a little over 30 minutes. Major road connections nearby include the M25 (J20) and the M1 (J8 and J9). The A41 dual carriageway runs to the South of the town, providing an excellent connection to Hemel Hempstead, Watford, Tring and Aylesbury.
There is a good range of leisure facilities in the area. There is walking and riding just minutes away in the surrounding countryside and on the National Trust's 5,000 acre Ashridge Estate, while nearby golf courses include Ashridge, Berkhamsted and The Grove. The area offers excellent schooling, including Berkhamsted School, founded in 1541, and Tring Park School for the Performing Arts.
Berkhamsted offers a wide range of shopping, from independent boutiques to national names such as Waitrose and M&S Food Hall. The larger towns of Hemel Hempstead and Watford offer wider facilities, while Milton Keynes and London are both easily accessible too.
