Do you fancy living in a converted brewery?
If you’re a (pint) glass half full kind of person then you’ll definitely want to take a look around this contemporary townhouse before last orders.
That’s because this quirky two-bedroom property forms part of a converted brewery, and the expert craftsmanship of its original Victorian builders is still proudly on display today.
The Hertford Brewery was designed by William Bradford, who specialised in tower breweries, and completed in 1891 by the McMullen family of brewers.
But now, having been renovated by White Hart Developments, the brewery has since been converted into various properties – of which this sleek and stylish home is one.
The brewery was painstakingly restored and many of its original features are still intact, including brewing barrels, large warehouse-style windows and beautiful vaulted ceilings.
Set in the heart of the bustling market town of Hertford, this mews house is spread across almost 2,000 sq ft and boasts light and airy open-plan living areas.
On the market for £749,950, this property also boasts beautiful, exposed original steal work.
But the real star of this property is the old vat that has been turned into an en-suite. It is genuinely one of the quirkiest features we have ever come across.
Adam Dockley, managing director of Dockleys, said: “I love the individuality of this property, and this whole development. For people moving out of London who want something special, this encapsulates everything that’s on trend at the moment.
“It’s got a complete mix of modern and old and it’s just minutes from the station and town centre, and adjacent to a massive park.
“It’s a truly iconic building that everyone in the local area knows about, but because of where it’s located, it’s also a bit of a hidden gem. And the ironmongery is stunning as well.
“But what the developers have done with the vat is incredible. They’ve turned it into a walk-in wet room one side and a toilet the other. If that’s not the best en-suite in the world, I’d like to see what is.”
This property is listed for sale with Dockleys.
