Freehold

Description

Simply Homes are thrilled to present the opportunity to acquire this exceptional 5,200+ square feet family home situated on just under an acre plot, located in the desirable village of Benington.

Fully renovated and redesigned only eight years ago, the house benefits from the use of ground source heat pumps and underfloor heating. The use of these systems is reflected in the property's impressive EPC rating of B.

Upon entering through the front door, a well-proportioned hallway welcomes you with a striking hand-made staircase and balustrade. The ground floor boasts a remarkable kitchen diner with living area, which is complemented by a spacious living room that is flooded with natural light due to its triple aspect. The ground floor further benefits from a cinema room, a good-sized study, an office, fourth bedroom, utility room, shower room, and pantry.

Ascending to the first floor reveals three generously sized bedroom suites. The principal suite features a spacious dressing room, a three-piece en-suite, and a balcony offering panoramic views of the gardens. The remaining two suites mirror each other in size, each with dressing areas, built-in wardrobes, and en-suites, all with large windows framing picturesque views of the surrounding countryside.

Entered via an electric gate, the property opens to a sizable gravel driveway with ample parking. The rear gardens, primarily laid to lawn, showcase mature trees and shrubs, along with an extensive patio perfect for entertaining or al-fresco dining.

Benington provides good amenities including two churches, a primary school and two public houses. More comprehensive facilities are available in Stevenage (5 miles west) and Hertford (9 miles south). Communications are excellent: the A1(M) is just 8.5 miles distant, whilst fast and frequent trains leave Stevenage station (5 miles west) reaching London Kings Cross in approximately 28 minutes, with an alternative service from Watton at Stone to London Moorgate via Finsbury Park in approximately 42 minutes. Luton Airport is 20 miles away and Stansted Airport is 25 miles away. There are a wide range of excellent schools in the district including preparatory schools, Benington Church of England Primary School and Walkern Primary School. Public schools include Heathmount School, St Edmunds College, St Christopher’s School, Haileybury and Imperial Service College and Bishop’s Stortford College. Benington is set in a very rural location and benefits from a network of footpaths and bridleways, ideal for the equestrian enthusiast.
