Gossoms End Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire, HP4
Guide Price £445,000
Cottage charm, close to the town.
This pretty two bedroom Victorian cottage lies within easy reach of Berkhamsted's town centre, and comes with the unusual benefit of its own parking too.
The property is most charming, benefitting from recently redecorated rooms, including newly laid carpets, stripped pine internal doors and a sitting room which features a bow window and log burning stove.
There are two separate reception rooms, while the kitchen is located to the rear of the house, fitted with cream shaker style units including a traditional Butler's sink and a solid wood work top.
The rear hallway, ideal for hanging coats and storing shoes, leads through to the downstairs bathroom.
Upstairs, there are two good size bedrooms, with the master bedroom boasting fitted wardrobes to one wall.
Outside, the pretty cottage style rear garden extends some 80ft in length; most delightful with mature, well stocked borders and a little winding path leading down to the rear where you will find a shed and parking.
The property is offered for sale with no upper chain.
Berkhamsted itself is a busy market town, located to the West of Hertfordshire and just 30 minutes from London by train. Perhaps the town`s most prominent role in National affairs came in 1066 when William the Conqueror was handed the English Crown. Berkhamsted Castle was built following the granting of the crown, and famous names associated with it include Geoffrey Chaucer who was Clerk of Works, and Thomas Becket who was Constable of the Castle in the 12th Century. Substantial ruins of the Castle still remain today.
Today, the town is highly desirable for commuters, with excellent transport links by road and rail. The mainline train station provides a regular and direct link to London Euston in a little over 30 minutes. Major road connections nearby include the M25 (J20) and the M1 (J8 and J9). The A41 dual carriageway runs to the South of the town, providing an excellent connection to Hemel Hempstead, Watford, Tring and Aylesbury.
There is a good range of leisure facilities in the area. There is walking and riding just minutes away in the surrounding countryside and on the National Trust`s 5,000 acre Ashridge Estate, while nearby golf courses include Ashridge, Berkhamsted and The Grove. The area offers excellent schooling, including Berkhamsted School, founded in 1541, and Tring Park School for the Performing Arts.
Berkhamsted offers a wide range of shopping, from independent boutiques to national names such as Waitrose and M&S Simply Food. Milton Keynes and London are both easily accessible too.
