Grand 18th Century home in Cheshunt

Marvel at the grandeur of this remarkable Grade II listed home as you pass through the ornate iron gates, parking your car on the hexagonal-paved driveway.

The original section of this property dates back to 1781, with additions from c.1860. Inside, you will find original features, plasterwork, sash windows, and the warm, welcoming feeling of coming home. This impressive property has a wealth of history and a sense of permanence. 

This beautiful home has two excellent reception rooms. To the front of the property is a sitting room with pillars and plasterwork that create a feeling of grandeur, and the ornate fireplace takes centre stage with dental block pattern woodwork.

The living room sits at the property's rear. Sun spills through the window throughout the afternoon and the door leads out into the garden.

Morning sunlight pours through the window as you enjoy the day's first cup of coffee. There is a large range-style oven, ready for you to cook your family's favourite dishes, with a wide array of units and workspace for chopping and preparing, with plenty of space for all your pots and pans. 

A utility room ensures the washing machines are in a separate space so that the full spin cycle does not disturb your family time. 

This incredible property has a whopping seven potential bedrooms. On the first floor, you will find five beautiful bedrooms, with the master bedroom sitting at the rear of the property, overlooking the garden. Dual-aspect windows allow the light to change and move throughout the day. There are fitted wardrobes along two walls, providing plenty of storage. Four further bedrooms offer space for the whole family.

On the second floor, two rooms are hidden up in the eaves. With full head height and windows that look out over the rooftops, these rooms have made perfect offices or workrooms for the current owners but would also be more than suited to additional bedrooms.

Beautiful Bathrooms

On the ground floor, next to the utility room, there is an ever-so-useful shower room with a large walk-in shower cubicle, wash hand basin and a separate WC. 

The family bathroom is on the first floor, with a beautiful claw-foot bathtub in front of the window to bathe you in light and bubbles. There is a separate walk-in shower cubicle for a more convenient cleanse and a wash hand basin. Close the door and enjoy a peaceful soak after a long day. The WC is separate, a little way along the landing, so your bubble bath won't be interrupted.

The front of the property is given over predominantly to paving to allow for parking your cars, with a raised flowerbed and lawned area, which is well stocked with established shrubs to increase the privacy at the front. The rear is devoted to peace and enjoyment with a lawned garden that spans the width of the property, flanked by established fig trees which provide an abundance of fruit in the Summer months. 

Out and about

Within just a few minutes' walk, you can be on College Road, where you will find restaurants, coffee shops, fast food outlets and the usual large chain stores peppered with boutique and independent shops that create a lovely sense of community.

A 10-minute drive takes you to the Brookfield Shopping Centre, where you can find many large chain shops and supermarkets.

Transport links are fantastic, with the A10 just a few minutes away and the train station a little less than a mile away that gives direct access into London.

Its central position also opens up wider possibilities; the house could lend itself to a professional use such as a doctor’s surgery, dental practice or nursery, subject to planning
