Discreetly positioned at the end of a little known private enclave, just off prestigious Shootersway Lane, Cherry Tree House offers a masterfully composed balance of privacy and proximity.

Hidden in plain sight, this fine home occupies one of Berkhamsted s most desirable addresses peaceful and private, yet within effortless reach of the town s cultural rhythm, acclaimed schooling and the mainline station.

Thoughtfully arranged across a generous footprint, the house unfolds with measured elegance and architectural clarity. The beautifully presented entrance hall sets a tone of quiet elegance and leads into a series of versatile reception spaces where flow and form are intuitively resolved. The expansive sitting room, anchored by a statement fireplace, opens to a large glazed conservatory, while more intimate zones a family room, dedicated playroom and secluded study offer zones for work, rest and play.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen breakfast room pairs traditional cabinetry with tactile surfaces, striking a warm counterpoint to crisp architectural lines. Bathed in natural light, it s a space as suited to family life as to quiet reflection. A separate utility room preserves the serenity of the main space, while a large glazed pocket door slides away to reveal a formal dining room, its sightlines drawn toward the garden, creating a seamless dialogue between inside and out.

Upstairs, the landing is generous and light drenched, leading to four well proportioned double bedrooms. The principal suite is a sanctuary of understated luxury, featuring a wall of wardrobes and a striking en suite, clad in woodland tiling a tactile homage to the verdant surroundings. The guest bedroom benefits from its own en suite too, while the remaining rooms are served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom, this time finished in a statement Lily Pad tile; a design which is playful and poised in equal parts. All bathrooms were renovated last year, using high quality designer fittings.

Externally, the house sits within a substantial, thoughtfully landscaped plot. East west in orientation, it welcomes morning sun to the front and golden hour light across the rear garden. Mature trees border the space, which backs directly onto playing fields, offering both a borrowed landscape and a rare sense of privacy. The garden curves gracefully around the house, with a broad patio, a covered veranda for sheltered evenings and playful, family friendly features including a sunken trampoline, a treehouse and a summerhouse.

To the front, a long private driveway establishes a sense of arrival and separation from the outside world. A detached double garage and driveway parking for up to five cars complete the picture of quiet functionality.

Cherry Tree House is, quite simply, a considered exercise in Berkhamsted family living. Where architecture, atmosphere and intent coalesce into something quietly remarkable.
