Tucked away on a peaceful cobbled lane in central Berkhamsted, this two-bedroom period house combines preserved historic detail with practical town-centre living. The ground floor offers two well-zoned reception rooms with exposed beams and excellent natural light, while French doors open onto a secluded courtyard garden ideal for alfresco dining and quiet relaxation. A traditional kitchen fitted with bespoke cabinetry and a Rayburn provides both character and warmth.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes, and a centrally placed bathroom. The property includes a useful outbuilding currently arranged as a home office or studio, adding flexible space for remote working or creative use. A rare private driveway in this central location is a significant convenience for car owners.
Buyers should note some practical considerations: the house is older solid-brick construction (c.1900–1929) and external walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation, so energy-efficiency improvements may be beneficial. The plot is small and the courtyard is compact rather than a full rear garden. Broadband speeds are average and there is a single bathroom for two bedrooms. The area records higher-than-average local crime levels — something to consider for prospective buyers.
This home will suit those seeking a characterful, centrally located residence with flexible additional workspace and private parking. It works well for families wanting close access to Berkhamsted’s shops, schools and transport links, or professionals seeking a period property with contemporary comforts and renovation potential.
