    Description

    A converted 16th Century Grade II* Listed three bedroom country residence tucked away within expansive private grounds and situated in the desirable location of Cheverells Green with no onward chain.

    Dating back to 1705, Cheverells House is a distinguished 16th-century Grade II* Listed Queen Anne residence, carefully converted in 2002 into just ten exclusive country homes. Each retains unique period character while benefitting from modern finishes and beautifully maintained private grounds. Set across three floors, this elegant home offers the ideal countryside retreat, combining historic charm with contemporary comfort. It is perfectly suited for those looking to escape to the country, or for buyers seeking a convenient “lock up and leave” residence while spending part of the year overseas. Nestled in the highly regarded hamlet of Cheverells Green, the property enjoys a tranquil rural setting, yet sits on the edge of the Hertfordshire village of Markyate. Local amenities are close at hand, while excellent transport links provide easy access to nearby towns, London, and international destinations — making this a charming rural retreat with convenience and practicality in mind.

    Upon entering through the communal lobby, a private door opens into a welcoming entrance hall, leading into a bright and airy formal sitting/dining room. This elegant space enjoys views across the front communal grounds and features an original open fireplace — ideal for cosy evenings or for hosting formal gatherings with family and friends. Adjoining the sitting/dining room, the separate country-style kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, an integrated oven with gas hob, and space for additional appliances. From the sitting/dining room, a door opens onto the courtyard, which offers a tranquil outlook across the private communal gardens at the front of the estate.

    Ascending from the entrance hall, stairs lead to the first-floor landing, providing access to the master suite, a third double bedroom, and a recently refitted ‘Jack & Jill’ four-piece en suite bathroom. The master bedroom is a delightful dual-aspect double, complemented by the en suite, which features a low-level W.C., pedestal wash hand basin, elegant walk-in shower, and a panelled bath — perfect for relaxation and rejuvenation. The third bedroom is another generous double, offering versatile space that can serve as a bedroom or a home office, ideal for working from the comfort of home. From the first-floor landing, a further staircase leads to the second-floor landing, which provides access to the second double bedroom and a bathroom. Bedroom two is a spacious double featuring an open fireplace, while the adjacent bathroom adds convenience for family members or visiting guests.

    Approached via Pickford Road, a gravel driveway leads to private parking and a single garage allocated exclusively to the residence. From here, a pathway provides access to the rear communal lobby, whilst a second path from the parking area leads a private communal front garden, and gated access to the homes courtyard- a delightful spot overlooking the grounds, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee. Beyond the residence, a private track meanders through to the extensive communal grounds: a wide expanse of beautifully kept lawns, bordered by mature hedging and original feature walls. This serene setting provides the perfect backdrop to relax, entertain, or simply unwind while admiring the far-reaching countryside views.

    Privately tucked away in the picturesque hamlet of Cheverells Green, this charming country residence enjoys a prime location just a short distance from Markyate’s historic High Street. The village offers a wide range of everyday amenities, including local shops, a Post Office, pubs, restaurants, a gym, a doctors’ surgery, and a pharmacy — creating a vibrant, well-connected community atmosphere. Families will also benefit from excellent local schooling, including the highly regarded Beechwood Park School, as well as outstanding school catchments in nearby Harpenden.

    For commuters, Markyate provides superb transport links. The M1 (Junction 9) is just two miles away, offering swift access to London, Luton Airport, and the wider motorway network. Rail commuters are equally well served, with Harpenden station a short drive away and fast services to London St Pancras in under 30 minutes. Perfectly combining village charm with modern accessibility, this elegant country residence offers a lifestyle of convenience, comfort, and tranquillity.

    N.B. The Management charge for 2025 is 1,394.22.
