WHAT THE OWNER SAYS

I have had the privilege of living in this lovely house for over 3 years. It’s a safe, quiet cul de sac with a strong community feel. The house itself is quaint, cosy and warm, with nice natural light throughout the day. Some of my favourite moments have been sitting at the back of the property eating dinner and drinking a glass of wine as the summer sun is setting. I have had the addition of neighbours joining me for a drink at times, as we chat the night away. It has been lovely to be surrounded by such kind people.Codicote village has always been a wonderful for me, and the house is extremely central to everything. It is mere seconds from the high street, with access to all the shops, pubs and restaurant. But if like me, you like stunning views and enjoy the outdoors, then there are beautiful walks just on your door step.

I think this will be a perfect home for someone to love and cherish. I hope it provides many years of enjoyment to the new owner, as it has done to me.

THE HISTORY OF CODICOTE

Codicote is a large village, and civil parish about seven miles south of Hitchin in Hertfordshire, England. It has timber-framed and chequered brick houses, of special interest being the 18th-century Pond House and the half-timbered Taverners Place. Codicote Lodge is 18th-century and Codicote Bury 17th-century.

The pretty Hertfordshire village of Codicote has a history going back at least 1500 years but the earliest written reference to the village comes from the year 1002 when King Aethelred (Ethelred the Unready) sold the manor of 'Cuthingcoton' to one of his advisors, a man named Aelfelm.

Codicote is a delightful village, with over 70 listed buildings to explore. Many of the older buildings have blue plaques outlining the property's history. There is a Butcher, Bakery and convenience stores.
