Description

A beautifully presented and spacious family home, that has been extended and fully modernised throughout, situated in a quiet cul-de-sac location, in this sought-after village.

Overall Description - This tunnel-linked terrace house has been extended and completely modernised by its current owners to create a spacious, light and contemporary family home that is beautifully appointed throughout. No stone has been left in the improvements which include a brand new bathroom (2024), new double-glazed windows and doors (2019), new boiler, all new flooring downstairs with under-floor heating in three zones, new carpets upstairs, fully landscaped back garden with garden studio/annexe, new driveway and new electrics with chrome points with USB ports. However the biggest transformation is with the addition of a large rear extension to create a superb open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with French doors out into the garden, undoubtedly now the heart of this magnificent home. Upstairs there are three bedrooms, two good-sized doubles, as well as that brand new bathroom. Downstairs there is the entrance hallway with fitted under-stairs utility cupboard, cloakroom, sitting room with open-fireplace and then the open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with feature flame-effect electric fireplace and French doors to the low-maintenance garden. There is ample parking on the brick-paved driveway and a gate leads to a tunnel giving access to the back garden which contains the fully insulated and double-glazed garden studio/annexe, perfect for use as a spill-over bedroom or perhaps a home office..

The Beautifully simple new way to sell your home

Introducing BigBlackHen.com

We are a new kind of estate agency and we would like to offer you something different – a beautifully simple new way to sell your home.

BigBlackHen.com started with an idea. Why not avoid the unnecessary expense of High Street offices, invest in the very latest technology to keep overheads low, and put more of our client’s money where it counts - marketing and advertising their homes to potential buyers?

From that idea grew a successful business which in just five years was voted one of the top 20 estate agencies in the country (at the 2010 ESTAs, one of the biggest awards in the business).

Now our beautifully simple approach is available to the home owners of Hertforshire.

Simple, client-friendly contracts

We don’t like complex and restrictive contracts with long tie-in clauses, so have written ours in plain English with no tie-in or notice periods, as we are old fashioned enough to think that your loyalty should be earned, not signed for.

Simple, transparent, low fees

We believe that the commission system is too opaque and often far too expensive which is why we introduced our very popular and transparent fixed-fees. For more details on our fees, please call the number below.

Uniquely beautiful presentation

As a former Director of one of London’s top advertising agencies I know the importance of beautiful presentation to successful selling, hence our stylish glossy brochures and leading edge web site. We use all of this expertise to get you seen in all the right places - the UK’s most visited property websites, Rightmove included, and the very best newspapers and magazines.

Why not call us on 01992-878580 to find out more, or to book a free valuation? We would welcome the chance to make your house sale as beautifully simple as we know it can be.
