Gurneys Farm House,Watery Lane,Marsworth,TRING,HP23 4LZ
HP23 4LZ
4 bed 1 bath Detached
Character farmhouse with large gardens and strong extension potential.
Approximately 0.5-acre plot with canal frontage and moorings
Set on about half an acre beside the Grand Union Canal, Gurneys Farm House is a detached Rothschild cottage with generous gardens, outbuildings and excellent scope to extend (subject to planning). The property offers substantial character — fireplaces, period proportions and a versatile layout across approximately 1,842 sq ft — making it well suited to a family seeking a long-term country home or an investor wanting refurbishment potential.
The cottage is offered chain free but does require renovation throughout; services have not been tested and the house is presented as a project. It has a single family bathroom, limited-headroom eaves room, and a large calor gas tank with private well for water. These features are practical but will influence running costs and the nature of any refurbishment work.
Externally there is a detached garage, three-room outbuilding, extensive driveway parking and mature, wraparound gardens with canal frontage and moorings. The rural village location is peaceful, with a short walk to the Red Lion pub, canal-side tea rooms and basic amenities in nearby Tring; fast train links to London make commuting possible.
Buyers should budget for renovation, professional surveys and any planning costs for extensions. For those prepared to invest time and money, the plot, location and character present a rare opportunity to create a distinctive country home with leisure and small-scale equestrian potential.
