A magnificent detached gem of a property in a stunning riverside location, tucked away on a private estate, at the very heart of this thriving town. No chain. GUIDE PRICE: £700,000-£750,000.

Overall Description - This unique detached riverside property was built by Sarbir homes in 1997 and is a complete one-off, situated right in the heart of Ware, so ideally placed to take advantage of everything that this thriving town has to offer. It sits in a tucked away private location, with pretty gardens running along the banks of the river Lea, which it overlooks. The property is modern, yet built in a period Georgian style, so it does have character, especially with it's arched bay to the front and French doors out to a riverside balcony from both bedrooms. Those two bedrooms share an upstairs shower room which has recently been modernised. Downstairs there is a kitchen as well as a spacious sitting/dining room with an open-fireplace and French doors out from an arched bay window to a pleasant riverside patio. The property has a good-sized riveside garden with mature trees and shrubs and there is a parking space to the front as well as additional shared visitor spaces. This delightful property is coming to the market for the first time in over 25 years and has no onward chain, so early viewing is strongly advised. GUIDE PRICE: £700,000-£750,000.
