Description:

Thought to originally date from the 1600's, the Grade II listed property stands in well maintained, lightly wooded grounds which extend to about 2.17 acres and adjoin paddocks on the northern side of this sought after village.

LOCATION
Shillington is a thriving village with a strong community, in an outstanding rural environment, surrounded by delightful countryside. There is a shop for day to day needs, a lower School and attached Pre-School, a petrol station and various public houses in the area.

Ideal for the commuter and those travelling with business, Shillington is convenient for main transport links and is with good commuting times to Luton and Standstead airports. Hitchin, which is about 7 miles away, provides more comprehensive shopping, schooling and recreational facilities together with the train station serving London Kings Cross. The A1(M) and M1 motorways are also within easy reach.
THE ACCOMMODATION
The property has been sympathetically extended and greatly improved by the current owners, successfully blending a number of period features with more contemporary detail. A detached annexe and double garage, which can be used for a business, provides an excellent opportunity to create self contained accommodation within the grounds.
