OUTSIDE, Nimney House is well set back from the High Street in a private location inside a set of remote-controlled gates on brick piers. The driveway leads to a sizeable parking and turning area in front of the house as well as to the garage. The gardens are very much a feature; they are well established and partly wooded. These gardens are a mixture of shrub borders, maturing coniferous and deciduous trees, terraces, and an unusually shaped garden pod for evening entertainment. Beside the house there is a brick-built boiler room with two modern gas fire boilers which provide the heating and the hot water.
Towards the rear of the garden there is a hard tennis court. There are further storage buildings for garden machinery. The grounds to the rear of the house enjoy a southerly aspect and of particular note is the unusual privacy afforded by this extensive village garden and the well-established trees and shrubs.
PLANNING - Considerable work has been undertaken to establish the likelihood of gaining planning consent for residential re-development of the garden. It seems likely that an appropriate planning application would be successful, but the family have decided not to apply for planning and to sell the property freehold without any restrictions, uplifts or covenants.
Much Hadham is a very popular and well known East Hertfordshire village with local store, health centre, garage, fire station, recreation ground, public house and primary school. The area is convenient for the commuter, as it is situated almost equidistant between the A10 and M11. The towns of Bishop’s Stortford and Ware lie approximately 6 miles and 8 miles distant respectively, and provide a more comprehensive range of facilities, and both have mainline stations to London Liverpool Street. There are two golf courses within 2 miles of the village.
