Planning Permission has been granted to demolish the existing home and replace with a new build - Please see East Herts Planning Portal for more information on planning: Ref. No: 3/21/3072/ful

The property is approached via a private road, making up a select few homes and leads to the gated driveway with parking for multiple cars as well as a front garden and detached garage.

There is a wrap around garden backing onto Hertfordshire countryside and stunning views beyond. Particularly impressive is the private lake, which is brimming with a variety of wildlife.

The internal accommodation is generous and naturally light, with many of the rooms offering a dual aspect. The first floor bedrooms offer stunning views over the fields and are served by a family bathroom.

The property requires modernisation but is a perfect blank canvas for anyone wishing to place their mark on this superb family home.
