Description:

A large family house with superb covered swimming pool in a gloriously peaceful rural location and set within two acres of mature gardens and woodland.

Overall Description
This is the first time that this large family house has come on the market for the last forty years and during that time the current owners have extended and much improved the property including the addition of a large heated indoor swimming pool in the garden. The property has been extended to create a spacious family home with five reception rooms, plus a study, kitchen, utility and cloakroom on the ground floor while upstairs there are four bedrooms a bathroom, shower room and loft room. The gardens are a real feature of this property extending to around two acres with large area of lawn, many mature trees and a pleasant shaded area of woodland. The location is very rural and peaceful, yet is very close to transport links (road and rail) and other amenities, so is not isolated. If you are looking for somewhere for the long term, a wonderful location to bring up children, then come and look around this house.
Location
The property is located just outside the village of Newgate Street, so in a quiet and rural corner of Hertfordshire, surrounded by open countryside and yet close to excellent transport links to London with trains from either Bayford or Cuffley stations and the A1 and M25 being around a 10 to 15 minutes' drive away. Newgate Street has a couple of pubs, a restaurant, primary school, church, village green with tennis courts and hotel with 9 hole golf course and there is a village shop in the next village, Little Berkhamstead. Cuffley is around three miles away and Potters Bar and Hertford are both around five miles away, each with further local shops, good schools and other amenities, Potters Bar also having fast trains to London. There are very good private and state schools in the local area including Lochinver and Richard Hale (both boys) and Queenswood (girls). There are footpaths leading across open farmland close by making the house perfect for walking the dogs - or children!
