Byways, Berkhamsted

SUMMARY
Rarely available four bedroom detached bungalow set on 0.3 acres in Byways, a highly desirable private road off Gravel Path, Berkhamsted.


DESCRIPTION
Brown and Merry are delighted to bring to market Thorn Cottage, an exceptional four-bedroomed detached bungalow. The property is located in Berkhamsted, the sought after ancient market town in the heart of the Chiltern Hills, a designated area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The town combines a bustling café and restaurant culture with all other practical and social amenities including The Rex, a reputed art deco style cinema. There are excellent schools, both independent and state.

Positioned to the North West of London, Berkhamsted is about 35 minutes by train into London Euston. The M25 and M1 motorways are within easy reach as are Luton and Heathrow airports.

Thorn Cottage is situated at the far end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Byways, a highly desirable private road located off Gravel Path. Its position gives it a sense of privacy that few properties are able to offer. The location is close to the Common and Berkhamsted Golf Club, as well as the National Trust Ashridge Estate with its 5000 acres of woodlands.

The property is surrounded on three sides by a generously sized flat-lawned garden with mature shrubs, flower beds and ancient trees, as well as a pond. Thorn Cottage looks out over stunning countryside views. Fields can be accessed directly from the garden via a private gate, which also offers an easy 15-minute walk down to the station and the town, past the ruins of the 10th century Norman Castle.

With four double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a study, Thorn Cottage offers spacious and flexible accommodation across 2137.5 square feet.

A welcoming entrance hall leads directly into a large, open and airy reception/dining room. The impressive, L-shaped, triple-aspect, light-filled sitting room is situated to the back of the house.

Sliding doors onto the delightful patio offer superb views over the garden and countryside beyond. For cosiness on cooler evenings there is a feature gas fire with a classic fireplace surround. The study to the front of the house provides an ideal quiet space for home-working or family activities.

The four spacious double bedrooms include a large master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and access to the patio via glazed doors. All the bedrooms offer ample storage with built in cupboards.

In addition to the en-suite bathroom, there is a large shower room with WC, and a separate toilet.

The fully equipped kitchen/breakfast room has two large picture windows providing more views across the garden accessed via the back door. Adjacent to the kitchen there is a spacious utility room and a door leading to an integrated double garage offering both storage and potential.

To the front of the property there is a large drive with space for four cars. A picturesque gate to the left-hand side leads directly to the garden, whilst to the right there is another gated sideway to the rear of the property. Tucked into the garden, close to the back door there is a shed with ample room for garden implements and other storage requirements.
