Description
Now competitively priced following a £250,000 reduction, solely because the vendors have found their dream home. The Paddocks presents 2,900 sqft of luxurious and flexible living space, set within nearly 2.5 acres, with beautifully landscaped grounds. Combining high-end family comfort with fully appointed equestrian facilities, this is a rare opportunity to secure a premium Hertfordshire equine facility, offering both rural tranquillity and easy access to London.
Elegant Family Living
Inside, the home blends elegance and practicality in perfect harmony. A serene lounge provides the ideal place to relax, while a generous boot room enhances the practicality of daily life. The grand open-plan kitchen, family and dining area is a striking focal point of the home, designed for both entertaining and modern family living. A second reception room provides exceptional versatility and could easily be used as a 5th bedroom or self-contained annexe, ideal for multi-generational living or visiting guests. Underfloor heating throughout and an air-source heat pump ensure year-round comfort with sustainable, eco-friendly efficiency.
First Floor Retreats
Upstairs, the principal suite is a true retreat, offering panoramic views across Waterford Common, a dressing room, and a spa-inspired en suite. Three further double bedrooms, one with its own en suite, provide exceptional family accommodation. Each has fitted feature wardrobes, and the wardrobes in bedrooms three and four can be removed to create additional space. Even the landing has been designed with lifestyle in mind, offering a bright corner perfect for a reading nook or home study.
Equestrian and Outdoor Lifestyle
The property’s outdoor lifestyle is as impressive as the interior. The grounds are both versatile and private, featuring secure paddocks and a 40 m × 20 m area that can be used as a manège or transformed into a private football pitch, providing year round leisure and recreation for families and sports enthusiasts alike. The premium Longcross stable block provides three spacious stables with rubber matting and ventilation, while an additional stable block/ outbuilding offers huge potential for conversion into an annexe, studio, or independent rental (STPP). Landscaped gardens, open views, and a sweeping driveway create a wonderful sense of arrival and exclusivity.
The Best of Both Worlds
Waterford itself offers the best of both worlds: a charming village bordered by rolling countryside and riverside walks, yet just minutes from Hertford’s boutiques, restaurants and commuter links. London can be reached in around 40 minutes, making The Paddocks ideal for buyers seeking rural tranquillity without compromise.
Families are exceptionally well served with an outstanding choice of schools, both state and independent. State options include Richard Hale, Presdales, Simon Balle, Bengeo Primary and St Joseph’s RC Primary, while nearby independent schools include Haileybury, St Edmund’s College, Heathmount, Duncombe School and St Joseph’s in the Park.
A Lifestyle, an Investment, a Statement
This exceptional home combines space, style and equestrian excellence. With 2,900sqft of luxury living, eco-friendly features, and potential to extend, The Paddocks represents a rare blend of countryside living and modern convenience. The substantial £250,000 price reduction reflects a genuine opportunity, the vendors have already found their next home and are ready to move. This is more than a house; it is a lifestyle, an investment, and a statement. Private viewings are highly recommended for serious equestrian and lifestyle buyers ready to experience everything The Paddocks has to offer.
