Charming Grade II Listed 17th Century Cottage In Lemsford Village

Set in the picturesque and highly sought-after village of Lemsford Village, this charming Grade II Listed 17th Century cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful home offering tremendous scope for modernisation and improvement. Rich in period charm and historic character, the property provides an exciting chance for a purchaser to sympathetically update and enhance a truly unique residence in an exceptional semi-rural setting.

A beautifully established cottage garden creates an attractive first impression, with mature planting framing the historic façade and hinting at the character within. Internally, the cottage offers two welcoming reception rooms, one centred around an attractive feature fireplace, providing cosy and versatile living spaces full of original charm and potential.

The accommodation comprises two well-proportioned bedrooms arranged across the cottage’s traditional layout. A ground-floor bathroom currently serves the property, although the house would now benefit from a programme of updating and modernisation throughout, offering buyers the opportunity to create a superb family home tailored to their own tastes and requirements. Subject to the necessary consents, there is clear potential for further enhancement and reconfiguration.

Externally, the property continues to impress with a spacious garden storage shed, ideal for practical storage or possible conversion into a workshop or studio, subject to planning permission.

Enjoying a peaceful position directly opposite the tranquil River Lea, the cottage occupies a highly desirable village setting whilst remaining conveniently close to local amenities, including the popular village pub. The property is within easy reach of Welwyn Garden City, offering extensive shopping, dining, and mainline rail services into London, together with excellent access to the A1(M).

For those who enjoy the outdoors, the beautiful Brocket Hall Estate and numerous countryside walks are all within walking distance.

Offering enormous potential, historic charm, and an enviable village location, this Grade II Listed cottage represents a wonderful opportunity for buyers seeking a rewarding restoration and modernisation project in one of Hertfordshire’s most desirable settings.
