Set on the edge of Berkhamsted Common, this impressive late Victorian house occupies an exceptional position, where the town’s edge meets the rural landscape, and the views feel both cinematic and deeply private. Dating from the 1880s, the house is a substantial four bedroom home of considerable presence, its architecture expressive of both its period and its setting. Approached through its gardens, the sense of calm is immediate. The landscape stretches away beyond, and the stillness is punctuated only by birdsong.

Set within an exclusive gated enclave of just three converted barns at the top of Ivy House Lane, The Woodcock occupies a quietly privileged position on the edge of Berkhamsted.

In a prime location, yet set discreetly back from the road, this elegant 1930s detached home strikes a proud and balanced stance atop its gently sloping, southerly plot, within a third of an acre of verdant, tree-lined gardens.

Set well back from Kings Road behind a gated entrance shared by just four homes, Treetops is a substantial five bedroom house occupying a notably private position in Berkhamsted. Extending to just over 3,200 sqft, the house is oriented towards a level south-westerly garden, with much of its living space and several of the bedrooms opening to the light and greenery behind.

Built in 1933 and coming to market for the first time in more than 30 years, Acrea is one of the original houses of Hall Park, one of Berkhamsted’s most coveted locations. Set well back from the road on a mature plot of approximately a quarter of an acre, it is a handsome and remarkably intact house, with generous proportions, beautiful original detail and considerable scope for its next chapter. The town centre is around three-quarters of a mile away, with the railway station approximately a mile from the house.

Set within a discreet enclave of just four substantial houses, this beautifully reimagined home offers a rare synthesis of architectural refinement and rural seclusion. Believed to stand on the footprint of the former stables to a neighbouring farmhouse, the property offers the best of both worlds: immersed in gently rolling countryside yet within easy reach of the market towns of Tring, Berkhamsted, Wendover and Chesham – each providing a choice of swift rail links to central London.

Situated within a little-known enclave of just ten homes, Beechcroft is a sought-after cul-de-sac built in 1995, quietly tucked away yet only a short walk from Berkhamsted’s vibrant High Street, excellent schools and railway station. Occupying one of the largest plots within the development, this attractive brick-and-flint detached home has been comprehensively remodelled and extended by the current owner, resulting in a beautifully balanced family house where contemporary living sits comfortably alongside the quality and proportions of its original design.

Set within approximately half an acre of beautifully landscaped gardens, with far-reaching views across the Chiltern Hills, this remarkable home enjoys a setting that feels both wonderfully secluded and deeply connected to the landscape.
