'Avenel' Old Nazeing Road, Broxbourne, Hertfordshire, EN10

Enjoying an enchanting 175ft south-facing rear garden, this truly unique three-bedroom bungalow has been cherished by the same family for over thirty years. Although it is a single-storey dwelling, the accommodation is thoughtfully arranged over various levels, creating a charming cottage-style feel, and still offers the potential to further extend the current footprint, subject to the necessary consents.

'Avenel' is ideally situated within the catchment area of highly regarded schools and close to all the amenities Broxbourne has to offer, including a bustling high street shopping parade. The Lea Valley Nature Reserve is quite literally on your doorstep, along with boating lakes and a rowing club. Broxbourne British Rail Station is within a short walk and provides a direct service to London's Liverpool Street in under half an hour. Additionally, the local Crown Public House offers a perfect spot to unwind after a pleasant walk along the River Lea

EXTERIOR

The front of the property is approached via a block paved carriage driveway with wide borders stocked with a section of mature shrubs, flowering plants and perennials. The courtyard is accessible from the garage/laundry room and is an ideal spot from where to store the wheelie bins there is a water connection and access to the triple tandem workshop via a pair of wooden garage doors. A wrought iron gate provides access to the rear garden.

The garden enjoys a southerly aspect and is laid to lawn extending to 175ft and is a fine feature of the property with pathways discovering something different at every turn. There is a triple pond divided by a stone bridge (two of the ponds can be easily reinstated together with the waterfall) located to one side of the garden and is shaded by a large conifer tree. Panelled fencing and mature shrubs provide an excellent degree of seclusion. The bespoke gothic style stone-built summer room has a peg tiled roof and has been standing proudly for many years and is a central feature of the garden. The trellis and bower provide support for flowering climbers and leads to another terrace with a greenhouse. Bordering the square lawned area are tree lined paths with productive fruit trees including rich Victoria plum, varieties of apple, and pear. To one side of the garden is a wide border and accommodates a large strawberry patch, during the summer months lends itself to a stunning display of poppies. Directly behind the property is a wide paved terrace offering a sunny aspect from where to sit and admire the garden. At night the property and gardens are enhanced by the external lighting.
