Space to breathe. Room to grow.
Tucked into the quiet curve of a sought-after cul-de-sac just off Box Lane, this generous four bedroom home occupies a substantial third-acre corner plot. Set slightly elevated and surrounded by mature greenery, it enjoys a feeling of space and privacy while remaining very much part of the neighbourhood.
Inside, the layout is traditional and spacious. A wide entrance hall opens through a broad arch into the dining room – a comfortably sized space that easily accommodates family meals or entertaining.
To the right, the sitting room runs the full depth of the house. A box bay window to the front and glazed patio doors at the rear allow light to pour in throughout the day. At its centre, a large fireplace with a woodburning stove provides a focal point for the room.
The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with modern cabinetry and includes space for informal dining, while the adjoining utility room keeps domestic tasks neatly out of view. The ground floor also includes a separate study, as well as a cloakroom.
Upstairs, four bedrooms are arranged off the landing. The principal bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and a well-appointed en suite with both bath and walk-in shower. The remaining bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom. Bedroom two also has fitted wardrobes.
While the interiors reflect a classic and conventional style, it is the outside space that perhaps elevates the house to an unexpected level.
The stunning rear garden stretches over 150 feet in depth and is thoughtfully landscaped into four distinct areas. Immediately behind the house, a full-width terrace provides space for outdoor dining and play, with the current owners even finding room for a table tennis table. Stone steps rise to a manicured lawn framed by vibrant borders; a nod to formal English gardening.
Beyond this, nature is allowed to assert itself a little more, with the third zone becoming a mini meadow; a tapestry of wildflowers and long grasses that shift gently in the breeze. At the far end, a mature, tree-filled area forms a leafy green backdrop. This final area promises a wonderful, slightly wild place where children can explore, play and lose themselves for hours beneath the branches, accompanied by the constant soundtrack of birdsong.
To the front, a modest lawned garden and private driveway provide parking for two cars and access to the double garage.
Conveniently located less than half a mile on foot from Hemel Hempstead railway station, the property offers easy access to London, while the nearby town of Berkhamsted – just three miles away – brings independent shops, cafes and countryside walks close to hand.
