A cottage classic, close to town.
Positioned in a most desirable setting, just a short walk from Berkhamsted station and the town centre, with the countryside, canal and Ashridge Forest all close by, this two bedroom Victorian cottage offers the perfect blend of convenience and countryside.
The interiors have been thoughtfully curated in a palette of muted, restful tones. At the front of the house, the sitting room centres around a handsome fireplace, framed by a pair of arched alcoves that bring pleasing symmetry to the space. Parquet flooring flows through to the dining area, where a wood-burning stove and a wall of built-in bookshelves create a warm and intimate setting. The staircase, integrated within this space, leads to the upper level.
To the rear, the dual-aspect kitchen is filled with natural light and fitted with a range of simple cabinetry. A door opens directly to the rear garden.
Upstairs, the first floor extends partly over the passageway below, offering a generous plan. Two good-sized bedrooms are complemented by a large family bathroom. The principal bedroom features a wall of built-in wardrobes, and a spacious loft above offers potential for future expansion, subject to the necessary consents.
Externally, the south-westerly facing garden is cobbled and full of charm, with a raised terrace that steps down to a brick-built summer house. This versatile outbuilding includes a shower room and offers potential as a gym, guest suite, home office or creative studio.
Located within the town’s Conservation Area, this beautiful home certainly has history in its bones. A characterful home, it offers well-proportioned spaces and a strong sense of warmth, ready to be shaped to suit its next chapter.
