Chapel Croft, Chipperfield, Kings Langley, Hertfordshire, WD4

An exceptional contemporary detached family home with beautifully appointed accommodation, landscaped gardens and a versatile garden room.

Description

Tucked away off Chapel Croft, this contemporary family home was completed in 2019 and designed to provide well-appointed accommodation with high-quality finishes. Underfloor heating runs throughout the ground floor, while generous reception spaces and attractive landscaped gardens make the house equally suited to family life and entertaining.

There is a spacious entrance hall with attractive flooring extending through the principal living spaces and an elegant oak staircase rising to the first floor. To the front are a sitting room and snug, both with dual aspects and oak flooring. At the heart of the house is an impressive 36ft kitchen/dining/family room, overlooking the gardens with a twin set of sliding doors creating a seamless connection with the terrace. The kitchen features smart cabinetry by Amethyst Kitchens, quartz worktops and a comprehensive range of Neff appliances, including a microwave, oven and induction hob. A Blanco boiling-water tap provides added convenience. Completing the ground floor are a dual-aspect playroom with French doors opening onto the garden, a fully equipped utility room and a cloakroom.

Upstairs, four generous double bedrooms are arranged around a spacious galleried landing, all benefiting from en suite facilities with WCs. The principal bedroom suite features generous built-in storage and expansive glazing, with doors opening onto a Juliet balcony overlooking the gardens. Its elegant en suite features a walk-in shower and freestanding bath. The remaining bedrooms each have contemporary shower rooms. The loft area has Velux Cabrio windows installed which have been a recent addition and there is the potential, subject to planning, to create additional bedroom and cloakroom.

Outside
To the front, the house is approached via a generous gravel driveway, bordered by landscaped beds planted with shrubs and trees adding a focal point. There is ample parking for several cars. The double-fronted brick façade sits beneath a tiled roof and features attractive sash windows, while side gates lead through to the rear garden.

The generous rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped, with a large, paved terrace providing plenty of space for al fresco dining and relaxed seating, together with a feature pond. Steps descend to lawn, bordered by established shrubs providing colour and interest throughout the year, while a further wildlife pond sits towards the rear. The garden is family friendly, being fully enclosed, with mature trees beyond adding privacy. A substantial garden room provides versatile additional space, with bi-fold doors opening directly onto the garden.

Location

Keymers is situated off a private lane accessed from Chapel Croft in Chipperfield, one of Hertfordshire’s most sought-after and picturesque villages, on the edge of the Chilterns. At the heart of the village is Chipperfield Common, extending to more than 100 acres of woodland and open space, with footpaths, bridleways and a village cricket ground adding to its traditional character.

The village has a strong community feel, centred around the Grade II listed St Paul’s Church, with well-regarded pubs including The Two Brewers and The Windmill, together with a range of local amenities including a village store and Post Office, deli, cafés and restaurants.

Despite its rural setting, Chipperfield is well placed for access to the wider region, with the M1, M25 and M40 all within easy reach. Chorleywood, with its Metropolitan and Chiltern Line services, is 15 minutes away, while Kings Langley station, with services to London Euston, is around 10 minutes by car.

There is an excellent choice of sporting and leisure facilities nearby, including golf at The Grove, Moor Park and the Ashridge Estate, while the surrounding countryside provides lovely opportunities for walking and riding.

The area is particularly well served by schools, with nearby options including St Clement Danes School, York House School and Royal Masonic School for Girls, alongside several other highly regarded state and independent schools.
