Set within a vast private plot in peaceful Hempstead Lane, this extensively refurbished five-bedroom detached country home combines character features with contemporary comfort. The main house offers generous reception rooms, a handcrafted kitchen, vaulted family space with wood-burning stove, and versatile bedroom accommodation including a principal room with private balcony. A high-standard detached annexe and a linked ground-floor annex provide flexible guest, rental or home-office options.
The grounds extend to include 2.5 acres of recreational meadow and substantial detached agricultural/storage buildings, offering clear scope for equestrian use, workshops or potential residential conversion subject to planning. Owners intend to place a development overage on the meadow areas should development proceed. Landscaped terraces, far-reaching rural views, a triple oak garage and large gravel drive complete the estate setting.
Practical details are straightforward: the property is freehold, newly renovated and benefits from double glazing, oil-fired boiler heating and fast broadband. Notable considerations are the medium flood risk for the area, higher council tax (Band G) and the owners’ overage on the adjoining meadow. The outbuildings have commercial uses now but would need planning for residential conversion.
This house will suit families seeking generous indoor and outdoor living, buyers wanting annexe income or flexible accommodation, and purchasers or developers interested in land potential. Viewing is recommended for those who value privacy, space and countryside access within reasonable reach of regional towns and rail links to London.
