The Property
This striking four-storey dwelling offers in excess of 2,275 sq ft of beautifully crafted accommodation. From the moment you step through the entrance hall you appreciate the quality of the restoration - every detail has been considered and executed by master craftsmen and exceptional tradespeople to bring this important building back to life.
Entrance hall with stairs rising to the upper floors, and doors into the ground-floor cloakroom/WC and the flowing reception rooms.
Living room: set on the ground floor, this is truly the "wow" space. High ceilings, triple-aspect sash windows, an original solid timber beam, and a feature open-brick fireplace give real drama, character and volume - a setting for both relaxed living and entertaining.
Kitchen/dining room: the heart of the home, beautifully fitted with high-spec integrated appliances, a breakfast-bar area, dual-aspect windows, and stairs descending to the basement. This room brings contemporary living into historic surroundings in perfect harmony.
Basement level: the plant room for heating and hot-water systems sits here, along with a generous ancillary space which offers storage or potential conversion into a utility room.
First floor: a large landing leads to the principal accommodation. The master suite is indulgent, with a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite shower room area. Two further double bedrooms on this floor share a stylish Jack-and-Jill style shower room.
Top (second) floor: a magnificent guest bedroom - double in size - with its own en-suite shower room. This space could also be used as a home cinema or 'studio' room, offering flexibility.
Outside: the property is set behind a brick wall topped with wrought-iron railings and matching gate. An electric-car charging point is fitted - modern convenience within heritage surrounds.
Heritage & Character
As mentioned, the building is Grade II listed (List Entry Number 1268920). The central portion hails from the 15th century, with 17th- and 18th-century extensions. The listing details note the jettied gable facing Cowbridge, the timber-frame construction with later brick and render, and internal patterns of historic stud-work and original roof purlins. In short, this is a home of genuine historic provenance, sympathetically transformed for the most discerning purchaser.
Location & Lifestyle
Situated right in the town centre of Hertford, 7 Cowbridge enjoys an enviable lifestyle position. It is almost opposite the wonderful open green space of Hartham Common/Hartham Park, offering riverside walks, wide lawns and a calm environment yet literally moments from the vibrant cafés, boutiques and eateries of the town. Commuting is highly convenient: both Hertford East station and Hertford North station are within easy reach, giving excellent connections to London and beyond.
Hertford itself is a historic county town with architecture spanning many centuries, lively independent shopping, and a strong sense of community.
