House For Sale £1,750,000
DESCRIPTION As the name implies the property was formerly stables and has, many years ago, been converted and extended to form the wonderful home that it is today.
The present owners have lived here for forty years and have recently gone through the house updating and refitting to a great specification including redesigning a bespoke kitchen/breakfast room.
The house itself offers flexible and beautifully presented accommodation that is light and airy, together with an excellent detached annex that is ideal as guest accommodation or for those working from home.
Set discreetly off Cautherly Lane behind a high wall, the house enjoys great privacy and seclusion that is seldom found today. It's so conveniently placed for everything from the local village pub and the excellent primary school, to the neighbouring market town of Ware, St Margaret's station (Liverpool Street) and the A10, yet is on the doorstep of lovely countryside and riverside walks.
STEP INSIDE As soon as you walk through the gates into the garden, the privacy is obvious. One enters the house into a hallway off which is a refitted WC and cloakroom. The hallway opens into the bright and spacious dining room. Like the other reception rooms this is a light and spacious room with French doors opening onto a courtyard patio area and subsequently the gardens. Stairs rise up to the first floor and there is a glazed door opening to the terrace at the rear where one finds the swimming pool. The living room is a lovely relaxed room with windows to three aspects. There is exposed brickwork to one wall with feature fireplace. From the living room one enters the sitting room. A good size room with two distinct areas and again flooded with light with windows to both the front and rear aspects. French doors lead out to the rear garden.
At the far end of the house is the recently refitted and impressive kitchen/breakfast room. Attractively fitted in a contemporary style that really compliments the feel of the house. There is an excellent range of Shaker style wall and base units with white granite worktops, built in ovens, gas hob and dishwasher. A window overlooks the front garden and door leads into the utility room. Fitted with matching worktops, wall and base level units to the kitchen. Space for appliances and door and window to the rear terrace and garden.
Upstairs there are four lovely bedrooms. The upstairs offers a principal bedroom with an excellent range of custom built in wardrobes. There is another good double bedroom with en suite shower room and space for wardrobes and a third double bedroom at the rear. The fourth bedroom is a child's/nursery room or would make an excellent study. In addition is a refitted family bathroom.
STEP OUTSIDE An obvious feature of The Stable House is the gardens that are approaching half and acre and enjoy a real feel of maturity and privacy.
One approached the house via double gates that leads to the driveway that provides parking for numerous vehicles and leads to a double garage.
The gardens themselves are laid mainly to lawn with mature shrubs and trees and well stocked flower beds. At the very rear of the house is a large terrace where one finds the swimming pool. A fantastic area for all the family to enjoy with a feeling of complete privacy afforded by the high brick wall and fencing to the boundaries.
DETACHED ANNEX With its own independent front door one walks straight into a delightful open plan living space. Large enough for a double bed, fitted kitchen, dining and sitting areas. There is also an en suite shower room. An ideal annex for a guest suite, teenagers or for those who work from home and want to be away from the distractions of a family home.
LOCATION This lovely home is situated in the heart of the popular village of Great Amwell which provides excellent road access to the market towns of Hertford (2.5 miles) and Ware (1.0 miles), both offering extensive shopping and leisure facilities. Railway stations are available at the nearby village of St Margarets and Ware with regular commuter services to London's Liverpool Street. The A10 provides access to London and the M25 to the South. There is a broad selection of schools, both state and private in the district, including Heathmount, Duncombe, Haileybury College and St Edmunds College.
Throughout the area there are excellent recreational amenities including many fine golf courses, sports centres, horse riding and beautiful country walks.
