THE PROPERTY
This handsome, three bedroom detached house, situated only around 100 yards from the High Street, but with the benefit of parking, is something of a rare find in Berkhamsted.

Constructed in the mid 1930s, the property still retains many of its original features and also boasts rather generous, light and airy accommodation, including two separate reception rooms and three bedrooms. However, there is also significant scope for extension, should one wish, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.

Outside, the beautiful 70ft rear garden is bathed in morning sunshine, enjoying a south-easterly aspect. Meanwhile, to the front, a driveway provides valuable off-road parking.

This stunning home is less than a quarter of a mile from Waitrose, only half a mile from the station. Perfectly positioned, it would be equally suited to a growing family, as it would be to those wishing to downsize.


LOCATION
The property is situated in a sought after residential road, just off the High Street, and only around half a mile from the station.

Berkhamsted itself is a busy market town, located to the West of Hertfordshire and just 30 minutes from London by train. Perhaps the town`s most prominent role in National affairs came in 1066 when William the Conqueror was handed the English Crown. Berkhamsted Castle was built following the granting of the crown, and famous names associated with it include Geoffrey Chaucer who was Clerk of Works, and Thomas Becket who was Constable of the Castle in the 12th Century. Substantial ruins of the Castle still remain today.

Today, the town is highly desirable for commuters, with excellent transport links by road and rail. The mainline train station provides a regular and direct link to London Euston in a little over 30 minutes. Major road connections nearby include the M25 (J20) and the M1 (J8 and J9). The A41 dual carriageway runs to the South of the town, providing an excellent connection to Hemel Hempstead, Watford, Tring and Aylesbury.

There is a good range of leisure facilities in the area. There is walking and riding just minutes away in the surrounding countryside and on the National Trust`s 5,000 acre Ashridge Estate, while nearby golf courses include Ashridge, Berkhamsted, Mentmore and The Grove. The area offers excellent schooling, including Berkhamsted School, founded in 1541, and Tring Park School for the Performing Arts.

Berkhamsted offers a wide range of shopping, from independent boutiques to national names such as Waitrose, M&S Simply Food and Laura Ashley. The larger towns of Hemel Hempstead and Watford offer wider facilities, including Debenhams and John Lewis department stores respectively. Milton Keynes and London are both easily accessible too.
