Set along the prestigious Barnet Lane in Elstree, Hither Cottage is an exceptional contemporary residence offering an impressive blend of scale, design and technology, extending to approximately 4576 sq ft including outbuildings. The house is thoughtfully arranged to suit both everyday family living and high-end entertaining.
The ground floor is centred around generous, light-filled living spaces that flow effortlessly from one to another. A substantial kitchen and family area opens onto the terrace and landscaped garden, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out, while a formal dining room provides an elegant setting for entertaining. Additional accommodation on this level includes a private study, utility room and a spectacular cinema room, thoughtfully designed with tiered seating and smart surround sound technology. Throughout the house, poured resin flooring with underfloor heating provides both comfort and a sleek modern aesthetic.
The property benefits from a sophisticated Lutron lighting system alongside a Crestron home automation setup, allowing seamless control of lighting, audio and environmental settings, while partial air conditioning enhances comfort in key areas of the home.
Upstairs, the first floor offers a superb collection of bedrooms arranged around a central landing, with several benefitting from en suite facilities. The second floor is dedicated to an impressive principal suite, featuring a large bedroom, walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious en suite bathroom, creating a private retreat within the house.
Outside, the rear garden is a standout feature, offering a large terrace, a beautifully proportioned garden and a swimming pool, ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. Two outbuildings provide additional flexible space, perfect for storage, a gym, studio or home office.
Situated in one of Elstree’s most sought-after locations, Barnet Lane offers excellent access to local amenities, transport links and well-regarded schools. It should be noted that the house now requires a degree of refurbishment and ongoing maintenance, presenting an opportunity for a purchaser to restore Hither Cottage to its former glory and tailor it to their own requirements.
