THE PROPERTY
This Rothschild gem, with its gorgeous, original dovecote, is probably one of the best known houses in Tring.

Believed to date to the 1890s, the property is a house of two distinct characters; spacious, light and airy living accommodation downstairs, with upstairs being more reminiscent of a cosy, period cottage.

As you enter through the front door, a large, characterful entrance hall awaits, complete with original staircase. The house benefits from a total of three principal reception rooms; an elegant dining room, a generous family room/office and a large, welcoming sitting room with open fireplace and full-height picture windows providing views over the garden. In addition, there is a good sized kitchen, a study and a cloakroom.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, a nursery/dressing room, and a bathroom. The master bedroom is a generous double and, with access to its own large, South-Westerly facing balcony, provides the perfect place to enjoy the morning paper over breakfast. The two remaining bedrooms have lovely vaulted ceilings, and the useful eaves storage also has potential to extend into, to provide further living space if required (subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents).

Outside, the mature plot is well stocked and partly-walled. A gravel driveway creates off road parking for a number of cars, while the beautiful, lawned rear garden enjoys a South-Westerly aspect and a high degree of privacy. Last but not least, a covered sun terrace, accessed from the sitting room, is the perfect place to unwind at the end of the day; perhaps while enjoying a glass of wine before dinner, perhaps just simply watching the sun set as the day draws to a close.

LOCATION
The property is situated in Christchurch Road, a highly sought after location, around 500 yards from Tring High Street and within walking distance of the local schools.

Tring is a pretty market town on the edge of the Chiltern Hills, mentioned in 1086 in the Doomsday book.
