Summary - Long Marston Road, Marsworth, Tring HP23 4NF
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious secluded home with huge gardens and excellent commuter links.
Canal and wide countryside views across the Grand Union Canal
A secluded canal-side family home set in roughly 1.25 acres of cottage gardens, paddock and woodland. The detached four-bedroom cottage delivers generous living space across about 2,361 sq ft, with three reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, utility and a principal bedroom with en-suite. Panoramic views over the Grand Union Canal, surrounding farmland and the carefully planted garden rooms make this a rare rural retreat for those seeking space and privacy.
The long, private drive leads to a large parking area, detached double garage and outbuildings, providing practical storage and hobby space. The gardens and paddock offer immediate outdoor enjoyment — orcharding, small-scale keeping of animals or garden expansion are all realistic options. Local schools and Tring’s amenities are close by, and Tring station offers a fast link to London, making this appealing for commuting families who prioritise countryside living.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: the house is oil‑fired with a boiler and radiators, broadband speeds are very slow, and the solid brick walls are assumed to have no insulation. The property dates from before 1900 and has been in the same ownership for decades, presenting scope for updating, energy improvements and general modernisation. Services and appliances have not been tested and a buyer survey is recommended.
Overall this is a substantial, characterful home in an affluent, low‑crime village setting. It will suit owners who value mature gardens, canal and countryside views and are prepared to invest in energy upgrades and targeted refurbishment to unlock the property’s full potential.
