As dusk falls, the driveway and garden lighting create a striking setting, enhancing both security and atmosphere. Step inside and the entrance lobby delivers a real wow moment.

The ceiling rises dramatically to the first floor, with a galleried landing above, while large windows flood the space with natural light.

It is an introduction that perfectly sets the tone for the rest of the home.

The main sitting room is both elegant and inviting, with generous proportions and bi folding doors opening directly onto the rear patio.

A built in speaker system runs throughout the ground floor and extends out towards the patio areas by both the living room and kitchen, allowing music to flow effortlessly whether relaxing inside or entertaining outdoors.

The ground floor layout has been carefully considered to offer both flexibility and privacy.

A well appointed double bedroom sits just off the entrance hall, complete with fitted wardrobes, its own en suite and pleasant views to the front.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the open plan kitchen and dining space.

With striking 14 ft high ceilings and bi folding doors leading onto the garden, this is a space designed for entertaining and modern family living.

The kitchen offers extensive cupboard space and is supported by a comprehensive range of integrated appliances, including multiple fridge and freezer units, a wine cooler and a dishwasher, all thoughtfully incorporated within the kitchen and adjoining utility space.

A separate utility room and boiler room sit just off the kitchen, along with convenient side access.

From here, a further bedroom suite provides a peaceful retreat, featuring vaulted ceilings, large windows, fitted wardrobes and its own en suite.

Bi folding doors open directly onto the garden, creating a seamless connection to the outside space. Upstairs, the sense of space continues with a generous landing overlooking the entrance below.

Two further impressive bedrooms are found on this level, both substantial in size and each benefiting from their own en suite, making them ideal for family or guests.

Externally, the grounds are a real highlight. The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, complemented by a patio area perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining.

A storage unit provides practical space for garden equipment, while the overall plot offers a rare level of privacy and scale.

The garden and front drive are both well lit, further enhancing the setting.

Long Meadow was originally developed between 2012 and 2014 and has been lovingly cared for by the current owners over the past decade.

The private access serving the property is maintained by the Northchurch Common community, with residents contributing approximately £100 per year towards its upkeep.

The Location Positioned on the edge of Northchurch Common, the property enjoys a rare balance of countryside surroundings with everyday convenience.

The Common itself is one of the most sought after spots locally, offering immediate access to beautiful open countryside and thousands of acres of protected National Trust land, ideal for walking, cycling and enjoying the outdoors.

Despite its peaceful setting, Berkhamsted town centre is within reach, offering a wide range of shops, restaurants and amenities.

The area is particularly well regarded for schooling, including Berkhamsted School and Ashlyns School, both highly sought after.

For commuters, the mainline station provides fast and frequent services into London Euston in around 35 minutes, while the nearby A41 offers excellent road links to the M25 at Kings Langley and onward to the wider motorway network and airports.

Offered to the market with no onward chain, this is a rare opportunity to secure a home of real presence, quality and setting, ready for its next owners to enjoy.
