Hatfield Heath, Bishop's Stortford, CM22

Set within one of Hatfield Heath’s most desirable private roads, this substantial five bedroom detached residence occupies a prominent corner plot, enjoying exceptional privacy and views across a charming communal duckpond maintained by the residents of Chestnut Drive. With over 3,500 sq ft of accommodation, four bathrooms, and a double garage, this is an outstanding family home that has been beautifully cared for since new.

Approached via a mature front garden with generous driveway parking, the home opens into a grand and welcoming entrance hallway. From here, the layout flows naturally into the principal living spaces. The main living room is an elegant, double aspect space, complete with bay window to the front, feature fireplace, and patio doors opening to the south-facing garden. Adjacent, the formal dining room enjoys the same sunny orientation, with French doors leading onto the garden patio.

To the rear, the kitchen is extensively fitted with ample storage and high-quality appliances including a Bosch full-height fridge, integrated freezer, drinks fridges, double oven, gas hob, and Miele dishwasher. A central island creates a natural hub, flowing through to a spacious day room where south-facing light floods in through patio doors. A separate utility room with side access, a newly fitted water softener, and access to the garage further enhance practicality.

The ground floor also offers exceptional flexibility with two large offices. One has been used as a laundry and study, while the other is expansive enough for multiple desks, complete with fireplace and pond views, making it ideal for home working or conversion to further reception space.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress. The principal suite is a truly generous bedroom with extensive wardrobes, and an en-suite featuring walk-in shower, bath, and twin storage. Two further large double bedrooms each have their own en-suite shower rooms, while two additional doubles share the main family bathroom. Every bedroom has fitted wardrobes and excellent proportions, while a vast, fully boarded loft with ladder access offers scope for conversion, subject to planning.

The south-facing garden is thoughtfully designed, with a large patio incorporating a water feature, an expansive lawn bordered by mature trees for privacy, and a further section with shed and access to the rear of the garage.

Notable upgrades include a brand-new gas boiler and hot water cylinder, new water softener, extensive built-in storage throughout, and immaculate presentation from long-term owners who have cared for the home since new.
