Situated in exquisite gardens in this desirable and picturesque Hertfordshire hamlet, Clayton Cottage is a wonderful Grade II listed home that offers an idyllic setting with access to bridleways, alongside excellent transport links into central London.
Dating from the 17th century with later additions, this pretty property is situated in one of the most sought-after semi-rural locations in the area, on the edge of the National Trust owned Ashridge Estate with 5,000 acres of downland and woodland. Frithsden has an excellent public house, whilst Berkhamsted offers a wide choice of shops, restaurants and leisure facilities.
Clayton Cottage is full of character, with features including latch doors, exposed wall and ceiling beams, plus some original fireplaces and leaded light windows, adding to the property's unique charm.
The drawing room is dual aspect and spacious at 23' in length, with attractive gas burner, a wonderful place to enjoy family time. This leads through to the formal dining room, ideal for entertaining. A classic country kitchen with bespoke wooden cabinets and Aga opens to a traditional Amdega conservatory, which allows full enjoyment of the delightful gardens.
The first floor's principal bedroom benefits from a spacious en suite shower/dressing room that offers ample storage. 3 further double bedrooms, one of which has a balcony from which to enjoy the magnificent grounds, and a family bathroom complete the accommodation.
Set in about 2 acres, the grounds at Clayton Cottage have been beautifully nurtured to provide wonderfully diverse outdoor space. Surrounding the property, the exquisite gardens comprise well-stocked beds with a variety of specimen plants, mature trees, pergola and seating areas. Two fields rise from either side of the property, one with a small copse, the other backing onto Frithsden Vineyard, with a play area close to the house. A walled garden encloses the swimming pool, whilst outbuildings include a double and 2 single garages, plus a detached studio.
The village of Frithsden has an excellent public house/restaurant and a network of bridleways on the doorstep and is in an Area of Outstanding Beauty and the Conservation area. There is a small convenience store in nearby Potten End whilst Berkhamsted provides varied shopping, leisure facilities, rail link to London and a variety of both state and private schools.
