Description

Lawford Close offers a rare opportunity to create a bespoke contemporary home within one of Hertfordshire's most sought-after villages. Positioned on an elevated plot in a quiet residential cul-de-sac, the development benefits from detailed planning permission for an architect-designed detached home that has been carefully designed to complement the natural topography of the site while maximising light, space and surrounding views.

Arranged across three levels and extending to approximately 1,701 sq ft (158m²), the approved design provides four bedrooms, generous open-plan living accommodation, flexible lower-ground family space, home office accommodation and private parking with EV charging provision.

Unlike purchasing a completed new-build, this opportunity allows buyers to create a home that reflects their own lifestyle. Internal layouts can be adapted where appropriate, while kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, lighting, finishes and colour palettes can all be selected to create a truly individual home.

With planning consent already secured, buyers can avoid the uncertainty of obtaining permission while enjoying the freedom to personalise many aspects of the finished property.

Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate both the location and the potential this exceptional site offers.
