Description

A unique home with extensive living accommodation in a prime location on the edge of Northaw village with easy access to local rail and road links into and around London and the South East. This substantial home with an exceptionally wide plot has plenty of potential to create a property of significant stature and has the benefit of outline planning for another home adjacent to the existing house. The layout and potential of this property would be ideal for multi-generational living.
The sweeping carriage driveway leads to the front entrance hallway which serves the central two storey house which includes three reception rooms, two of which have stunning views over the rear gardens. There is a double aspect kitchen breakfast room with pantry, utility and a small study and cloakroom. A doorway from the hall links to the single storey annexe. The main staircase leads to the first floor landing which leads to a principal bedroom with the best views from the house towards Cuffley across open fields, with ensuite bathroom. Three further bedrooms are served by a family bathroom. The annexe attached to the main house has a large living room with lovely outlook, a fitted kitchen similarly oriented and three generous double bedrooms with additional bathroom. Finally there is a usable cellar for the wine enthusiast or for storage.
Outside the house overlooks the four acre plot which is formal gardens surrounding the house with mature trees set into extensive lawns. The enclosed pool area with pool house and plant room is a genuine sun trap for leisure time. The formal garden gives way to a cultivation area with vegetable growing beds. Finally the stables and paddock on the lower slopes are ideally suited to small livestock or equestrian use.
The planning permission for a new detached house exists using one side of the existing gated access. Interested parties can see the permission on the local authority website under reference 6/2022/0293/OUTLINE.

Vineyards Road is a rural lane linking Northaw with The Ridgeway. Sitting in Hertfordshire countryside the village is within 5 minutes drive of Cuffley and easily accessible to Hatfield and Potters Bar all of which have good train services to London King Cross. The A1M and M25 are both within 15 minutes in normal traffic. Local shopping can be found in the surrounding towns and villages and at The Galleria in Hatfield.
