This charming three-bedroom cottage presents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts or investors. Nestled within expansive, mature gardens in a tranquil semi-rural locale, this property boasts appealing views over a scenic village green. The cottage's prime location allows for easy access to Berkhamsted's mainline station and vibrant town life, making it an excellent investment for those seeking a countryside lifestyle with proximity to urban amenities.
The property is approached via an inviting front garden and features a cozy sitting room enhanced by a solid fuel stove and exposed brickwork along with original floorboards. A separate dining room connects to the spacious kitchen, which benefits from natural light through a roof light and offers ample storage space with its numerous cupboards. A well-placed shower room occupies one corner of the ground floor, presenting an ideal spot for conversion into additional living space or potentially creating a first-floor bathroom (subject to regulations).
Upstairs, three character-filled bedrooms await, each offering considerable potential for modernisation or even a loft conversion should the necessary approvals be obtained. A quaint courtyard located directly behind the cottage includes access to a utility room (formerly used as the wash house) that is already plumbed for appliances, plus convenient storage opportunities including a log store and potting shed.
The delightful rear garden provides privacy and embodies the essence of a country oasis with its lush lawns and mature trees. Two additional timber sheds enhance the garden’s functionality, while the paved front garden can be accessed through a gate leading from the green. Parking arrangements exist at the end of the terrace, providing space for three vehicles where a former timber garage once stood.
Located in Gaddesden Row—a picturesque village enveloped by Hertfordshire's beautiful landscapes—this property is ideally situated just four miles from Berkhamsted, known for its diverse shops and direct train services to London Euston. Access to major roadways like the M1 and M25 is also nearby, making this an attractive option for commuters. Local schooling options include Gaddesden Row JMI School and Beechwood Park Independent School within close reach.
