House For Sale £525,000
Award winning staggered terrace house overlooking the pretty Tewin village green conservation area. This small terraced development was designed in 1967 by architect Colin Huntley, a member of the DANAD art collective who occupied Marden Hill, a Georgian manor close to the village. Winning awards from the Civic Trust and the Department of the Environment for their integration of modernist design into the rural environment, these houses are also noted in Pevsner’s ‘The Buildings of England’ series, which makes mention of their dramatic projecting entrance halls.
The property includes a single garage. In addition there is communal parking.
The Village services include a nursery and a popular JMI school, a community owned shop, two pubs, a bowling green, a large village hall hosting activities including badminton, exercise classes and a monthly film, tennis courts with an active tennis club, cricket pitch with clubhouse. Beautiful countryside along the chalk-stream Mimram valley with plenty of footpaths and trails for walking, running and biking, and pretty bluebell woods. The village is in the catchment area for Presdales and Richard Hale School, the former girls and boys grammar schools in Hertford.
