Long Marston, Tring, Hertfordshire, HP23

This handsome detached home combines history, character, and modern comfort. Arranged across two well-planned floors and offering close to 4,000 sq ft of adaptable space, the layout has been cleverly designed with a split-level arrangement that naturally defines the more open-plan areas.

The house is divided into two wings. From the traditional entrance hall—with cloakroom and storage—you step into a generous formal sitting room with a feature brick fireplace and wood-burning stove. A wide square arch opens into a triple-aspect family room, flooded with natural light and enjoying wonderful views over the gardens.

A separate internal hallway leads to a further TV/family room and a dedicated home office, while a secondary stone staircase provides access to the original cellar—an ideal wine store.

The heart of the home is a spectacular open-plan kitchen, breakfast, and dining room. With its vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, and picture window, this is a space designed for both family life and entertaining. The kitchen has been reimagined with a contemporary farmhouse style and features extensive cabinetry, a central island, and a charming bay window seat. A large utility/boot room sits alongside, with bespoke storage. From here, a ground-floor guest bedroom with en-suite shower room completes the accommodation in this wing.

On the first floor, four double bedrooms enjoy views across the gardens and surrounding countryside, served by three well-appointed bathrooms.

Grounds & Setting

Approached along a tree-lined gravel driveway that passes the property’s own paddocks, Broadmead Farm sits privately within its landscaped gardens. The driveway opens into a gravel courtyard with a feature turning circle, twin barn-style garages, and a garden store.

The grounds are a true highlight. Formal lawns are framed by well-stocked beds, seating areas, and a natural pond set behind wrought-iron fencing. Beyond, a parkland-style garden blends into open countryside, complemented by a Japanese-inspired Zen garden and extensive raised vegetable beds—perfect for those seeking a taste of rural living.

A further highlight of Broadmead Farm is the outdoor swimming pool, set within its own private landscaped area of the garden. Surrounded by paved terraces and mature planting, it provides a wonderful space for both relaxation and entertaining through the warmer months. The setting feels tranquil and secluded, with plenty of room for loungers and seating, making it a true extension of the home’s lifestyle appeal.
