This exceptional Grade II listed family home is rich in character and period features, the property showcases exposed beams, open fireplaces, original flooring, and traditional doors, each adding to the charm and heritage of the home.
Lovingly maintained by the current owners for the past 33 years, the property thoughtfully balances its historic character with tasteful contemporary additions. The accommodation begins with a generous entrance hall, featuring quarry tiles and a stunning exposed brick fireplace with a wood-burning stove. The size of this space allows it to function as an additional reception room and flows naturally into a formal dining room, which also features a character fireplace.
Off the dining room, a bespoke open-plan kitchen/dining area has been beautifully fitted with a range of wall and floor-mounted units and for comfort, benefits from underfloor heating. Bathed in natural light, this space benefits from French doors opening onto the rear patio, ideal for entertaining and family life. In addition, the home enjoys a spacious formal sitting room with high ceilings, double aspect windows, and a further fireplace with wood-burning stove, creating a light and airy atmosphere.
A separate reception room is currently used as a home office and includes an en-suite W.C., offering excellent versatility and the potential to serve as a ground-floor bedroom if desired.
Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms served by a modern family bathroom. The principal bedroom also includes fitted wardrobes, as does bedroom three.
Outside, the front garden is beautifully landscaped with a variety of established plants, shrubs, and trees, all enclosed by a charming picket fence with a path leading to the front door. A block-paved driveway offers off-street parking for one vehicle and includes an electric car charging point.
To the rear, the low-maintenance garden features mature planting and two characterful outbuildings, both part of the property's listed status, with power and lighting, ideal for storage or further use. A further open barn-style structure provides a sheltered seating area to the garden. Subject to the relevant planning and listed building consents, there is potential to enclose or adapt this space into a home office or studio.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a remarkable and historic home, rich in character and romance, set in the heart of a much-loved village.

Nestled at the eastern edge of the Chiltern Hills, it lies just three miles west of the historic market town of Hitchin and around eight miles from the A1(M), offering convenient links south to London and north to major cities.
