Wigginton, Near Tring, Hertfordshire, HP23 6DU

Set within a desirable village on the edge of Tring, this individual mid-century home occupies a wonderfully established plot, with open farmland stretching away immediately beyond its rear boundary.

Detached and arranged over two floors, the house has an appealing simplicity to its architecture and offers generous, flexible accommodation together with considerable potential to remodel or extend, subject to the necessary planning consents.

Its position is particularly attractive: village life and countryside are quite literally on the doorstep, yet Tring lies less than 1.5 miles away and Berkhamsted approximately 3.5 miles.

Inside, a broad reception hall immediately reveals one of the house’s original mid-century details: an open-tread sapele staircase rising to the first floor.

From here, doors lead naturally to the principal living spaces. The sitting room is generously proportioned, centred around a fireplace and with direct access to the garden.

Glazed double doors connect it to the adjoining dining room, a bright dual-aspect space positioned at the rear of the house, with the open farmland beyond forming a wonderfully rural backdrop.

The kitchen is fitted with modern cabinetry, while an adjoining boot room provides a practical place for coats and muddy boots after walks through the surrounding countryside, with a door opening directly onto the garden.

One of the four bedrooms is positioned on the ground floor.

Complete with a fitted wardrobe and an outlook towards the fields beyond, its location alongside the ground-floor bathroom also provides useful flexibility for guests or those seeking predominantly single-storey living.

Three further bedrooms occupy the first floor, together with a shower room. The existing arrangement is characterful and somewhat individual, while also offering clear potential for reconfiguration.

Outside, the gardens wrap around the property and provide a wonderfully green setting.

Predominantly laid to lawn, they are softened by established borders planted with roses and a variety of mature shrubs, while paved terraces provide space for outdoor dining and entertaining.

A summer house sits within the garden, and the open fields immediately beyond the rear boundary reinforce the property’s strong connection to its rural surroundings.

To the front, a gate opens onto a broad driveway providing ample parking and access to a detached garage with adjoining store. There is an appealing honesty to this house.

Individual rather than imposing, it has been shaped by the practical optimism of its mid-century origins and occupies the sort of plot that is increasingly difficult to find.

With countryside behind, mature gardens around it and considerable scope to evolve the accommodation over time, it offers an opportunity to create a highly individual home in one of the area’s most desirable village settings.
