"This delightful architect designed home was built in the 1960 s on the instruction of the current owner, taking influences from both European chalet style homes, as well as traditional British construction crafts and the use of local materials. It is set in south facing landscaped gardens overlooking the four acre paddock and rolling Hertfordshire countryside on the edge of the Chilterns in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty . This unique home benefits from gas fired ducted warm air central heating, as well as efficient solar power and double glazing.

The covered porch opens to a welcoming entrance hall with a study to one side, a visitor s cloakroom and a wide easy going spiral staircase. A glazed screen leads through to the living room which has stunning views. A raised fireplace is a particular feature. Beyond, a breakfast area and conservatory both look out onto a large terrace, the garden and paddock. Further on is the formal dining room which shares a similar impressive outlook. The traditional fully fitted kitchen includes a breakfast bar and a large walk in larder. The large double garage, accessed from the entrance hall, leads to a spacious fitted utility room, a workshop and a gardener s cloakroom. A paddle stair ascends to the extensive storage area over the garage complex.

On the first floor are five bedrooms, four of which enjoy southerly views. There are three bathrooms, two of which are en suite. The principal bedroom suite includes a dressing room with closet area and a sunny balcony to sit enjoying the landscape with a morning coffee!

Glorious gardens surround the house, with exceptionally well stocked borders, water feature, shrubs, mature trees and hedges. A substantial wooden pavilion with tiled roof is situated to the rear and offers space for a home office, studio or games room. The driveway, with ample car parking, leads to a gated access to the paddock. The mainly hedged paddock extends to over 4 acres and slopes gently towards the valley below.
