From here sliding doors lead to the principal living room which has a cast iron wood burning stove, French doors opening to the rear garden and a window to the front allowing natural light to flood this space.
Moving over to the opposite wing of the property the large 'L' shaped kitchen/dining/family room dominates this space.
A triple aspect room with a number of windows to the front and side and French doors opening to the rear garden.
This space is further enhanced by a dedicated utility room which also has a door to the rear garden and makes the ideal space for your wet dog to dry off!
A large triple aspect family room completes the ground floor.

There are a number of mature specimen trees along the boundaries with low level fencing providing panoramic views over the countryside directly to the rear.
Garaging & Annex - The detached double garage has two sets of double doors.
To the rear of the garage is an exceptionally flexible annex room which is equipped with a kitchenette and a shower room so could be an ideal space for an au pair, elderly relative, home office, gym space or even used as an air bnb to generate an additional income!
Property Specifications - Air source heat pumps for heating and hot water. Engineered wood floor and luxury carpets with underfloor heating to the ground floor.
Vaulted ceiling to the principal bedroom. Character elevations. The Location - Great Gaddesden is the most delightful hamlet, built around the historic 12th century church of St John the Baptist.
It is steeped in history; the medieval convent of St Margarets, now a Buddhist Monastery, stands to the north-west, while the impressive Palladian country house, Gaddesden Place, is positioned to the east and is often used for filming.
Directly adjacent to the church is the lovely Church-of-England primary school, and the hamlet is surrounded by beautiful countryside which is ideal for walkers and horse riding.
The clear waters of the River Gade can also be found nearby.
Despite the sense of being very rural, Great Gaddesden is located a short drive from both the sought after market town of Berkhamsted, with its wide range of independent boutiques and restaurants, and the larger town of Hemel Hempstead, boasting a wider selection of shops and facilities.
Both towns offer mainline train services direct to London Euston in around 30 minutes.
