Coles Park, Westmill, Buntingford, SG9

Beautifully set in a wonderful semi rural position on the fringes of Westmill with over two acres of gardens that adjoin rolling countryside, one finds this impressive former Lodge house together with a large detached house independently set and accessed in an adjoining courtyard and grounds. 

Seldom are we privileged to offer two fine detached homes in such a setting that compliment each other so well. The original Victorian home is full of character and provides well presented and generous accommodation on one level with a principal bedroom suite, three further bedrooms, three reception rooms, a well fitted kitchen and a utility room. The Garden Lodge enjoys fabulous outside space with an extensive patio to its rear with raised Koi carp pond and a detached studio annexe with large studio room, kitchen and shower room that is ideal for those who work from home, need staff accommodation or use it as a games room. Beyond the patio the gardens are laid to lawn with mature trees and borders and adjoin paddocks.

The Courtyard annexe is a most impressive detached home that is completed in a contemporary style and finish. The accommodation is set out over two floors and approaches 2,000 sq'. The accommodation on offer is very flexible with two en suite bedrooms on the first floor, a large open plan living/dining/ kitchen, a flexible large cinema room and a further bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor. 

Each property has its own gated driveway and extensive parking and whilst the present owners enjoy the gardens as one, they can easily be divided so that each property has its own large gardens. Complete independent living yet so conveniently placed for each other.

The present owners have owned the property for many years and have meticulously maintained and improved it during their tenure. Improvements include remodelling, rewiring and plumbing, air conditioning, security systems installed, a new roof on the lodge to name just a few of the extensive improvements.

LOCATION

Set in a semi rural position just half a mile from the village centre yet only a few minutes drive from the A10, Garden Lodge is perfectly placed for those seeking peace and tranquillity but without isolation. The picturesque village of Westmill could effortlessly transport you to another time. The largely untouched village centre, which forms a perfect postcard setting with its collection of cottages, a triangle green and centuries old church reaching up into the skyline. In fact, the quaint village is so timeless that it has been the setting for the period drama Foyle's War over the years. But despite this, residents believe Westmill has moved with the times, creating a 'unique' village drawing more newcomers every year.

Set just off the A10, Cambridge road, the village sits just a couple of miles south of Buntingford and 8 or 9 miles north of Ware where many of the residents travel for shopping or to commute into London. Bishops Stortford is roughly 11 miles away via the A120 and Cambridge just over 20 miles away with great access via either the M11 or the A10. 

The village enjoys its own popular tea rooms and a splendid village pub, 'The sword in hand', that is renowned for its hospitality and excellent food.
