5 bedroom house

A beautifully styled family home in the pretty village of Potten End, just north of Berkhamsted. The village offers a choice of public houses, a village shop and a primary school, whilst Berkhamsted has a more comprehensive range of facilities and fast train access to London Euston.

The surrounding countryside offers a wide range of walking and riding throughout the National Trust Ashridge Estate, set in 5,000 acres of downland, commonland and woodland.

The house is accessed via a porch with a coats cupboard, which leads into the entrance hall with parquet flooring and stairs rising to the first floor. Immediately to the right is the double aspect family room with a box bay window to the front and a feature fireplace with a wood-burning stove, whilst to the left of the hallway is the formal dining room. The drawing room is over 20ft in length with two windows and a door to the front and a large storage room in the corner. The sitting room is double aspect with a lovely open fireplace with wood burning stove and patio doors opening to the rear garden.

The kitchen/breakfast room is well equipped with a modern range of eye and base level units with integrated appliances, granite worktops and a free-standing island with breakfast bar seating area. There is plenty of space for a breakfast table and chairs and double doors open to the rear garden. Beyond the kitchen is the office and boot room, along with a separate utility room and downstairs cloakroom.

On the first floor the principal bedroom has windows overlooking the rear garden, an en suite bathroom and a separate fully fitted dressing room. The guest bedroom benefits from an en suite shower room, whilst the remaining 3 bedrooms utilise the family bathroom and separate family shower room.

Outside the property sits in gardens and grounds extending to approximately 0.34 of an acre. To the front is a large gravel driveway providing parking for a number of cars and there is access down the side of the house to the rear garden.

At the back of the house is a large paved terrace, ideal for outside entertaining. Beyond this is a large expanse of lawn with a pathway leading down to a raised pond. There is a wooden summerhouse and a shed, along with a number of mature planted beds and borders. To the rear of the garden is a children's play area.
