A Victorian five-bedroom detached family home of great charm and character in a beautiful setting on the edge of a nature reserve. Bright, spacious and well cared for accommodation extends to some 2237 sq’ with many character features to enjoy and providing great scope for the next owners. Of particular note are the delightful mature gardens that together with being in one of the best positions in the village, makes this such a great home for those looking for the long term.  The Roundings is a small country lane that leads into a private road where some of the most exclusive homes in the area are found. There is a lovely mix of character cottages and houses nearby, some of which are owned by Haileybury College and lived in by their staff, all of which enjoy the beautiful Heath and historic woodland where one can walk for hours enjoying the peace and quiet of the countryside. Hertford Heath is a joy to live in with a thriving community served by a local shop/convenience store, three pubs, a church and village hall. The highly respected Haileybury College, one of the country’s leading independent schools, is found on the edge of the village and also provides a variety of sports facilities available to hire.  STEP INSIDE The hallway is a lovely welcoming room with stairs up to the first floor, a brick fireplace and large sash window to the front.  Also found at the front of the house is a wonderful light and large reception room, presently used as the dining room but could also be a living room. Being double aspect, this is a bright room, full of character with Victorian fireplace with cast iron and tiled surrounds and a square bay window to the front aspect. The living room is a really good size and benefits from two large windows to the side aspect and a feature fireplace. Adjoining the living room is the garden room, a lovely addition to the house with windows to three aspects and French doors opening onto the gardens. From here one can sit at anytime of the year and enjoy the garden, the adjoining Heath and the wildlife that ventures in. The hub of the home is the kitchen/breakfast room that has been refitted in recent years and includes granite work surfaces, fitted units and cupboards, sky light window and built-in appliances. The breakfast area enjoys a feature fireplace and there are views to the side and over the garden at the rear. A door leads to the utility room with access to the garden and ground floor cloakroom/WC. Upstairs one finds a spacious landing and five lovely sized bedrooms, all but one with built in wardrobe/cupboards. The principal bedroom is a beautiful double aspect room with outlook to the front and over the adjoining nature reserve.  Off the landing one also finds a separate WC together with the family bathroom that is well fitted and large with bath, wc, basin and a separate shower cubicle.  White Cottage is approached at the front by its own driveway and is set behind a picket fence. A wide sideway and gate leads to the rear garden which is a delight and a really good size. At the rear of the house is a large, paved patio area ideal for entertaining family and friends. Beyond this patio the lawn extends to the foot of the garden. The garden enjoys a high degree of privacy and is well fenced. There are well stocked flower beds, mature shrubs and trees and of course the adjoining nature reserve just adds to the appeal.  An added benefit of this home is the large timber outbuilding with a workshop and covered area that is ideal for storage or for extending a summer evening. Both light and power are connected. Hertford Heath is a charming village and offers so much to its residents and visitors alike. There is a convenience store and three public houses.
