The Barn,Braughing Friars,WARE,SG11 2NR
SG11 2NR
5 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Large plot with stables, pool and annex near Braughing village.
Chain free freehold with almost 1.7 acres of grounds
Set just under 1.7 acres in a quiet Hertfordshire hamlet, The Barn is a substantial five-bedroom semi-detached family home with outbuildings, paddocks and far-reaching countryside views. The main house provides about 2,029 sq ft of accommodation with an additional pool room, garages, stables and a two-bedroom annex bringing the total built area to roughly 4,835 sq ft. The property is offered chain free on freehold tenure.
Practical highlights include a covered heated pool, five stables, a four-bay garage block and a two-bedroom annex—appealing for families with horses, home business use or multi‑generational living. A pre-application for development potential has been submitted and is currently being considered by the local authority, which may interest purchasers seeking future uplift (any scheme would require formal planning consent).
Buyers should note a number of material points: the property uses oil-fired central heating, has an EPC rating of E, and the onsite sewage treatment plant is shared with the neighbour with ongoing 50/50 emptying costs. Internally, some areas (including a rooftop terrace and partitioned rooms) will benefit from refurbishment to realise full potential; a lift currently links ground to first-floor principal bedroom and can be removed if not required.
This home suits families wanting space and countryside living within commuting distance of Hertfordshire towns and rail links, as well as investors or developers prepared to pursue planning for further use. Its sizeable plot, outbuildings and equestrian facilities are distinct strengths, balanced by the running costs and upgrade work required.
