Set within a quiet historic hamlet, this striking barn conversion balances theatrical volume with practical family living. A double-height vaulted ceiling crowns the main sitting and dining areas, while a double-sided fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove creates a warm focal point across both rooms. The bespoke kitchen, limed oak cabinetry and breakfast bar suit everyday family use and entertaining alike.
The house offers three generous double bedrooms arranged over two distinct zones, with one bedroom occupying a private wing accessed by its own staircase. The ground-floor shower room is highly detailed—copper basin, dark mosaics and fibre-optic lighting—contrasting the otherwise restrained palette. A minstrels’ gallery and other thoughtful architectural touches reinforce the building’s character and sense of place.
Outside, a private low-maintenance courtyard garden opens from the sitting room and a double garage adds secure parking and storage. The property sits around a small shared courtyard with just three other homes, giving a tucked-away, discreet setting minutes from Berkhamsted and Hemel Hempstead.
Practical points to note: the building dates from before 1900 and external walls appear to be granite or whinstone with no assumed insulation. Broadband speeds are slow locally, council tax is described as expensive and crime levels are reported as high for the area. The plot is small, and the setting is a shared courtyard rather than a fully private estate.
