Sherwoods Road, Watford, WD19

Positioned with confidence on one of WD19's most prestigious and architecturally varied roads, this remarkable four-bedroom, self-built detached home is the definition of design-led living. With crisp, contemporary lines and smart home tech at your fingertips, it’s a statement property with rare edge - sleek, stylish, and built for those who appreciate form as much as function. Behind its immaculate white render, anthracite-framed windows and striking front door, the house unfolds over 1,841 sq.ft across three impeccably finished floors. Every inch has been carefully curated for modern living at its most refined, and it's offered chain-free; an increasingly rare opportunity for a home of this calibre. The driveway offers off-street parking for two vehicles and discreet side access leads to a stunning, easterly-facing rear garden that stretches over 100ft.

Inside, a wide, welcoming hallway sets the tone: clean lines, premium materials and a strong sense of cohesion. Polished concrete floors flow seamlessly across much of the ground floor, complete with underfloor heating - durable, beautiful, and effortlessly low-maintenance. To the front, a generous living room (15’9” x 12’7”) blends elegance with comfort, featuring herringbone floors, bespoke wooden shutters and a statement box bay window. At the rear, the space opens up into the home’s defining feature: a spectacular open-plan kitchen, living and dining space that invites entertaining and elevates everyday living. Spanning nearly 20ft in width, the space is flooded with natural light thanks to vaulted ceilings, skylights and full-width bi-folding doors. Layered LED perimeter lighting adds ambience and depth, day or night. The kitchen itself is a masterclass in modern design. Satin cabinetry, twin ovens, flush induction hob, integrated boiling water tap, and a wine fridge embedded in the central island - every detail speaks to precision and style. A dedicated utility room keeps everything behind the scenes running smoothly, while the ground floor WC continues the home’s elevated aesthetic.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a sanctuary of sophistication - deep tones and easterly light that floods the space each morning. The en-suite is, of course, finished to the same high standard. Three further bedrooms follow the same design language: bold, yet balanced. The fourth bedroom, found on the top floor, is an ideal guest suite or retreat, complete with its own en-suite wet room. The family bathroom is another highlight: a freestanding tub, matt black fixtures, and clean, crisp lines.

Outside, the landscaped rear garden feels like a natural extension of the home’s interior. A perfectly level stone patio connects directly with the living space, making alfresco entertaining or laid-back lounging effortless. Raised beds bring seasonal colour and structure, while the generous lawn offers space to enjoy throughout the seasons.
