Tollgate Road, Colney Heath AL4

Enjoying a picturesque position within the highly desirable village of Colney Heath, Tollgate Farm House presents a rare opportunity to create an exceptional country residence within a beautiful semi-rural setting, all whilst remaining within easy reach of St. Albans city centre, Brookmans Park and excellent transport connections into London.

Rich in character and charm, the property currently provides three generous reception rooms and five well-proportioned bedrooms, with versatile accommodation ideally suited for modern family living once enhanced. The surrounding former farm buildings and land have now been acquired for redevelopment into an attractive collection of luxury mews-style homes, which will ultimately elevate the overall setting and create an exclusive countryside-style environment centred around the original farmhouse. Once completed, the development is expected to significantly enhance both the desirability and long-term value of the main residence, whilst carefully retaining the character and heritage feel of the original farm setting.
