One of the regions finest and most notable country homes, with
significant outbuildings, including a detached lodge and a
substantial barn, set centrally within delightful gardens of 3.3
acres and backing directly onto open countryside, on the outskirts
of this very sought after rural hamlet, which is conveniently
placed for the M1 & M25, preferred schools, Berkhamsted (2.7 miles)
and the mainline station at Boxmoor (0.9 mile).
Available for the first time in over forty years, this stunning
country home was initially constructed in 1922 to the highest build
specification, with huge attention to detail, subsequently creating
an impressive family home of significant architectural and
historical interest. The main structure is built in red brick with
attractive elevations, relieved by mullion windows, all under plain
tiled roof slopes. The approach to the property is via a litchgate
entrance, over a long sweeping driveway, and the house is centrally
positioned within magnificent grounds, therefore affording great
privacy. It is set well back from the lane and cannot fail to
impress especially on first sight of the front. There is very
generous parking, which includes a bespoke triple carport which has
been sympathetically designed to fit in with the main house and
other buildings. Access to the house is via a storm porch which has
a quarry tiled step and a solid wood door which leads into the
entrance hall, where the character of the property becomes
immediately apparent. The main features include very attractive
solid wood internal doors and beamed ceilings, which are present
throughout the property, coupled with fireplaces, which are present
and also the main focal point in most principal rooms. The main
accommodation includes a magnificent sitting room which has the
most amazing substantial beams which originated from an old
workhouse in Norwich, and a beautiful wooden floor which is
currently protected by carpet but could be easily revealed. The
remaining and very impressive feature of this room is the inglenook
fireplace, which is mainly of exposed brick, and has a display
mantel and further timber mantel surround. This room is triple
aspect, with views over gardens, and also access via French doors
to a patio which overlooks the swimming pool. The dining room is
particularly spacious and would be ideal for formal dining. This
has a further feature fireplace and views over gardens. The kitchen
is conveniently placed for the dining room and the breakfast room
and comprises eye and base level units, some of which are glass
fronted display units, with down lighting, double sinks and
integrated appliances which include an electric double oven and gas
hob with canopy above. The breakfast room is directly adjacent and
both rooms have superb views over the garden. The utility/bootroom
is directly adjacent to the kitchen and provides access to the
front and rear of the property. This comprises eye and base level
units, work surfaces and sink and there is space for an
American-style fridge/freezer. The door to the rear provides
convenient access to a small courtyard, which in turn provides
access to a boiler room, which has a sink and a water softener. The
first floor landing provides access to all other areas of the
property, including the linen cupboard. The master bedroom suite is
very impressive and has spectacular views over the rear and side
gardens. This room has an en suite cloakroom, as well as an en
suite dressing room, comprising shower cubicle and vanity wash hand
basin, and a door leading to a walk-in wardrobe. There are four
additional very good size bedrooms on this level, all of which have
superb views, and the second or guest bedroom has an adjacent
shower room, which could easily be altered to become an en suite,
if preferred. This comprises over size shower cubicle, pedestal
wash hand basin and low level WC (all with chrome fittings) and a
chrome heated towel rail. All other rooms on this level are
conveniently placed for a very impressive oak panelled family
bathroom, comprising sunken bath with shower attachment, concealed
cistern WC and vanity wash hand basin with lighting. The second
floor landing currently has an additional sitting room, laundry
room, playroom, walk-in dressing room and a bedroom with an en
suite. This could alternatively be used as one whole suite for a
nanny, housekeeper, or other family members. This could provide two
further bedrooms and a playroom. The property is further enhanced
by gas fired central heating to radiators. OUTSIDE As previously
mentioned, the property is in a magnificent setting and within
amazing private gardens, with lawns that extend around all sides of
the house, and very attractive varied trees and planted shrubs and
various vantage points to enjoy it from. There is a walled garden
which has a covered barbecue area, a summerhouse with cloakroom,
which could alternatively be used as a home office, and a gazebo
which has an additional barbecue area. It would also be possible to
divide into separate paddocks for grazing if preferred. To one side
of the house is an impressive swimming pool with an adjacent pool
room with changing area and sauna. Towards the front of the house
and to one side is a triple carport, a detached studio and
substantial barn, which has both a garage-style and pedestrian
access. This has a cloakroom and stairs leading to a first floor
area, which is of a considerable size. There are other additional
smaller outbuildings and also a most impressive detached lodge,
which has a spacious sitting room, kitchen, cloakroom and first
floor bedroom with en suite. LOCATION Felden is a delightful hamlet
