Wormleybury, Church Lane, Broxbourne, Hertfordshire, EN10

Forming part of the historic Wormleybury Manor Estate, this charming two double bedroom, two bathroom bungalow offers spacious accommodation and boasts a delightful rear garden overlooking the formal grounds and lake.

Wormleybury has a rich and storied past, with a house on the site dating back to at least 1525. The current Grade I listed neo-classical manor house was built in 1767 for Abraham Hume and later enhanced by renowned architect Robert Adam in the 1770s. The forty-acre estate includes a five acre lake and is designated by English Heritage as a site of special historical interest.

Enjoying the best of both worlds, the property is nestled in a peaceful countryside setting, yet a number of towns are just a short drive away, offering a wealth of shops, international eateries, and sporting facilities. Commuters are well served, with excellent access to London and the Home Counties via both road and rail.

For purchasers seeking a characterful home in a truly exceptional setting, we strongly recommend an early viewing.
