Superb stable conversion on the Childwickbury Estate
Description
Stable House is a fine conversion, located in in the rural hamlet of Shafford, tucked away within the historic Childwickbury Estate. The setting within the Shafford Mill Conservation Area ensures a timeless character, with period cottages, converted farm buildings and the mill building itself offering traditional architecture, preserved against a backdrop of open countryside and approached along the River Ver. Yet the bucolic tranquillity doesn't come at too high a cost, as Shafford offers a rare combination of green space and connectivity. The surrounding Childwickbury Estate land offers scenic walks, equestrian facilities, and a strong sense of heritage, while St Albans city centre is approximately 2 miles away, providing excellent shopping, schooling and fast rail links to London St Pancras.
As the name suggests, the property is a converted stable building with the majority of the accommodation laid out on a single level. The owners have recently refurbished all the bathrooms and decorated the interior.
A large entrance hall gives access to most principal rooms and has a coats cupboard next to the door and a guest cloakroom. The vaulted sitting room has exposed beams and brick open fireplace and has windows to three aspects, while a country style kitchen has an Aga range and a breakfast area. A utility/boot room has a door to rear.
There are four large bedrooms, the principal with fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom with both bath and shower cubicle. The second bedroom has fitted wardrobes and a en suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms one with wardrobes and a family bathroom.
The first floor has a mezzanine area that overlooks the sitting room and a large games room with three rooflight windows to rear. The room measures approximately 44 feet in length with extensive eaves storage and offers scope for conversion into additional bedroom space if required.
You approach Shafford along a private road flanked by the River Ver, that leads to Shafford Mill. Stable House is set in one corner of a large gravelled courtyard and at the front has vehicular parking and also a recently erected oak framed double garage with electric doors. The garden is laid to lawn and to the side of the house there is a south facing patio which affords lovely views over both the gardens and countryside beyond. Beyond the existing rear fence, there is a second section of garden that presently appears in our photographs as a section of a larger paddock, which can be fenced. The plot in total forms about 0.36 acres.
