Hidden in a picturesque Hertfordshire hamlet, The Cruck Barn is a rare Grade II listed conversion dating from the 1500s. Vaulted ceilings, exposed cruck beams and large period windows create dramatic open-plan living that balances historic character with contemporary fittings, including a quartz kitchen and fitted Neff appliances.
The ground-floor principal suite is especially practical for family life, with French doors to the private garden, a fitted dressing room and a luxurious four-piece en-suite. Two further first-floor bedrooms each have en-suites, while a large mezzanine (currently used as a home office) offers flexible space for a fourth bedroom or study. A log-burning stove and solid oak floors add warmth and rustic charm.
Outside is low-maintenance landscaping with artificial lawn, patio and decking plus generous off-street parking for five to six cars off a private road. The home sits close to the Ashridge Estate and village amenities, with good schools nearby and rail links to London from Berkhamsted and Hemel Hempstead.
Important practical notes: the property is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and could complicate planning or major works. Council Tax is Band G (approx. £3,664.71 for 2024/25), and while the setting is rural and peaceful, the listing means ongoing maintenance and specialist repair considerations.
