Station Road, Tring, Hertfordshire, HP23

Beyond the traditional facade of this beautiful home, crisp planes of white render, thoughtful additions and contemporary remodelling set the tone for the considered modernisation to be found within. 

Cleverly reconsidered, the sumptuous interior of this stylish house offers the perfect balance of open-plan, yet delineated areas, balancing sociable living with private places for retreat. Downstairs, honey-coloured tumbled parquet flooring spreads throughout much of the house, while crisp lines and a delicate colour scheme of sophisticated muted tones provide a beautiful contrast.

Indeed, the circulation of the ground floor is exceptional. The generous hallway leads to a sitting room with original bay, a study and a separate snug. In addition, there is a spacious family room, with two wide steps leading down to the kitchen/dining room; a beautifully lit room, thanks to its ceiling of glass and bifold doors. A white Silestone-topped island and worktops are offset by runs of painted cabinetry, while the dove grey tiled flooring is warmed by underfloor heating.

As you would expect, there is a separate utility room, along with a modern fitted cloakroom/shower room.

Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms. The principal bedroom suite features an original bay window to match the sitting room, and comes with its own contemporary en suite shower room. Similarly, the guest bedroom also has its own en suite bathroom, while the other two bedrooms share the facilities of the family bathroom.

Externally, and unusual for a property so close to the town centre, the property boasts a stunning plot of 0.25 acre. 

As considered as the house itself, the rear garden is huge, extending some 170ft in length and designed to provide versatile areas for the whole family to enjoy. The formal garden has a good size patio and offers an ideal area for weekend family barbeques while, further along, an informal children’s play garden is perfect for kicking a football around or climbing play equipment.

To the front, the house is set well back from the roadside, with a large gated driveway providing secure parking for a number of cars. 

Finally, situated in a what can only be described as a prime location, opposite Pound Meadow and within a short walk of the High Street, sports clubs and local schools, the enviable position of this gorgeous home helps make it one of the town’s best addresses.
