This property presents a notable opportunity to establish a contemporary residence within an exceptional historic setting, having received full planning permission for a distinctive country home nestled in a charming walled garden in Hertfordshire. The site boasts proximity to both a Grade II Listed Park and a distinguished Grade II* Listed Building, ensuring a unique blend of heritage and privacy amidst beautiful natural landscapes.
The approved design features an expansive living space of approximately 16,500 sq ft, consisting of six bedrooms and thoughtfully arranged to optimize light and countryside views. Key amenities include generous kitchen, dining, and family areas alongside elegant reception rooms and dedicated workspaces. An additional leisure pavilion is also part of the plan, offering fantastic lifestyle facilities such as an indoor pool, gym, yoga studio, cinema, and wellness areas along with extensive underground parking for up to 16 vehicles.
While the initial design allows for substantial living space and luxury amenities, it also affords flexibility for customization; potential buyers can adapt the plans to create a more modest but still impressive residence of around 6,000–6,500 sq ft with three to four bedrooms according to their preferences. This adjustment ensures that owners can tailor the home to their unique lifestyle whilst maintaining the integrity of the overall architectural vision.
Given this rare chance to develop in such a prestigious historical landscape—where opportunities for new builds are limited—this property not only promises significant investment potential but also the creation of a landmark home that harmonizes modern living with environmental sustainability principles.
