Description

Nestled in a semi-rural location with excellent accessibility, this unique property offers an exceptional opportunity for renovation and investment. Originally established as six Almshouses, the residence has undergone thoughtful restoration to create a spacious family home while retaining its original character. The grounds extend to approximately 1.042 acres, providing ample outdoor space that enhances its appeal. With nearly 3,600 square feet of living space, the layout includes a welcoming entrance hall, a generous reception room, and an expansive kitchen/dining/family area that flows seamlessly for both everyday living and entertaining. The first floor features five well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal suite with a dressing room and en suite bathroom, along with four additional double bedrooms that share a family bathroom. The property also benefits from a detached double garage situated at the rear, which presents various possibilities for use—whether as a gym, studio, or even an annex—depending on your needs and local planning permissions. Surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens primarily laid to lawn, the outdoor areas include an impressive terrace overlooking picturesque greenbelt farmland. Located between Radlett and Watford in the village of Aldenham, this home is strategically positioned for easy access to major roadways such as the M1, A41, and M25. Additionally, excellent transport links via Thameslink services from nearby stations offer convenient connections to central London in under half an hour. The area is known for its reputable schools—both state and private—including Aldenham School and Haberdashers' Aske's. This property's combination of size, character, and potential makes it a compelling choice for those looking to invest in their future through renovation while enjoying the benefits of its tranquil yet accessible setting.
