Description
Bourneside sits at the edge of Much Hadham, one of Hertfordshire's most coveted villages, behind electric gates and a sweeping circular driveway that sets the tone before you've reached the front door. The house was comprehensively renovated in 2014: extended, rewired, replumbed, and finished to a standard that still holds up today.
The reception hall announces the scale of the place. A curved marble staircase rises from its centre, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling curved window draws natural light through the full height of the space. Four reception rooms lead off: a sitting room with marble fireplace and French doors to the terrace, a formal dining room, a study opening onto the gardens, and a comfortable TV snug, with french doors to the garden. The kitchen is fitted with Miele appliances, a hot water tap, integrated dishwasher, and drinks fridge, with French doors connecting directly to the terrace & gardens. A utility room and boot room sit alongside, both with their own access to outside.
The elliptical cantilevered marble staircase, with its hand-carved wooden banister, rises to the first floor. The principal suite occupies a commanding position: triple-aspect views over the grounds, a private balcony, a luxurious en suite, and a bespoke dressing room. Four further bedrooms sit alongside, two with en suites and two served by the family bathroom. The second floor offers further flexible accommodation.
Outside is where Bourneside earns its reputation. The grounds extend to approximately 1.74 acres of parkland-style gardens, beautifully landscaped and entirely private. A heated swimming pool sits within its own York stone terrace. Adjacent is a summer house fitted with a kitchenette, shower room, and WC, a self-contained space for guests or poolside entertaining. A double garage with EV charging point and a separate workshop sit beyond.
Much Hadham has a village shop, Post Office, pub, church, and St Andrew's Primary. Bishop's Stortford station offers direct services to London Liverpool Street, and Harlow Town is just 32 minutes from the city. Schools in the area include Bishop's Stortford College, Haileybury, Heathmount, and St Edmund's.
