Welcome to this magnificent six-bedroom detached family home, a paragon of bespoke luxury and architectural finesse, extending over 6,700 square feet across four impeccably crafted floors, including a versatile basement level. Nestled in a serene residential setting, this property harmoniously combines timeless elegance with cutting-edge design, and technology, featuring high-specification finishes, intelligent lighting, and an array of leisure facilities tailored for contemporary living and grand entertaining.
The exterior presents a striking brick façade with classic proportions, topped by a slate roof and accented with white-framed sash windows and a central dormer. Approached via a secure gated entrance, the expansive block-paved driveway offers ample parking for multiple vehicles, flanked by manicured hedges and low brick walls for privacy and curb appeal. To the rear, the landscaped garden unfolds in tiers, accessible via stone steps from a spacious patio, leading to lush lawns meticulously striped for a pristine finish. A central circular paved feature encircles an ornate stone fountain, surrounded by mature trees, conifers, and border plantings, creating a tranquil oasis complete with a garden shed and subtle lighting for evening ambiance.
Entering through the imposing front door, the grand entrance hall captivates with its marble flooring and a dramatic curved staircase boasting intricate black wrought-iron balustrades with gold accents, ascending under a multi-tiered chandelier that cascades like golden orbs. This focal point, viewed from below or above, emphasizes the home's vertical grandeur and floods the space with natural light from above, enhanced by tasteful décor such as abstract wall art, pampas grass arrangements, and plush velvet seating nooks.
The ground floor is dedicated to open-plan living and hospitality, flowing seamlessly from the hall. The family room invites relaxation with plush carpeting, a modern fireplace set against textured palm-leaf wallpaper, and bespoke joinery displaying decorative accents. Adjacent, the formal room exudes sophistication, featuring a grand piano, gas fireplace with marble surround, and layered coffee tables on soft neutral rugs. The dining area accommodates elegant gatherings around a long table with velvet seating under a contemporary chandelier. At the heart is the gourmet kitchen, outfitted with premium appliances including integrated ovens and refrigeration, abundant textured bronze cabinetry, a large marble-effect island with breakfast bar seating on sleek grey stools, and pendant lighting for a modern industrial touch, adjoining a spice kitchen for specialized prep. A convenient W/C and discreet stores enhance practicality.
On the first floor, four luxurious bedrooms await, accessed via the sweeping staircase and a spacious hall. Bedroom 1 and Bedroom 2 offer serene escapes with en-suites showcasing double vanities, rainfall showers, and heated towel rails amid chevron-tiled walls in nautical blues and woods. Bedroom 3 includes a generous en-suite, while Bedroom 4 provides additional comfort. A wardrobe/storage space and utility room add convenience.
The second floor features two opulent principal suites under vaulted ceilings with Velux skylights that bathe the spaces in daylight. Bedroom 5 is a haven of calm with textured walls, a king-size bed, and built-in storage, leading to an en-suite with marble veined tiles, a freestanding oval bathtub, walk-in glass shower, and illuminated mirror. Bedroom 6 impresses with curved padded headboard walls, a crystal chandelier, blue velvet ottoman, and dark cabinetry, complemented by an en-suite featuring dual vessel sinks on floating vanities, a glass-enclosed shower, and rich marble-effect cladding in earthy tones. A central hall and store complete this level.
The basement transforms into a private entertainment sanctuary. The cinema room offers tiered leather seating, a vast screen, and ambient LED lighting for immersive viewing. The games room boasts herringbone wood flooring, a sleek pool table, bar area with backlit shelving, and lounge seating. The entertainment space doubles as a fully equipped gym with mirrored walls, wooden slat ceiling, and professional apparatus including weights, benches, and cardio machines. Supporting amenities include a stylish bathroom with freestanding tub and shower, utility, plant room, and hall.
Throughout, the home integrates smart features like recessed LED cove lighting, underfloor heating, and compliance with Part L thermal standards for efficiency. This exceptional residence redefines luxury, blending aesthetic splendour with functional excellence for discerning tenants.
Location
Rickmansworth is a charming and affluent town situated in south-west Hertfordshire, England, approximately 17 miles northwest of central London and about 5 miles southwest of Watford, positioned just inside the M25 motorway for convenient access to the capital and beyond. It serves as a desirable commuter hub, blending suburban tranquillity with easy connectivity, while being enveloped by the picturesque Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to the north and west, offering a semi-rural feel on its outskirts despite its proximity to urban centers. The town lies at the confluence of the rivers Colne, Chess, and Gade, with the Grand Union Canal running through it, contributing to its scenic waterways and greenbelt countryside that includes nature reserves and wooded areas. Surrounding areas include quaint villages such as Chorleywood, Sarratt, Chipperfield, Chenies, Croxley Green, Moor Park, Batchworth, Mill End, and West Hyde, forming part of the Three Rivers District, which features a mix of historic settlements, rolling hills, and protected green spaces ideal for outdoor pursuits.
The location boasts excellent transport links, including Rickmansworth station on the Metropolitan line of the London Underground for direct services to central London, as well as Chiltern Railways connecting to London Marylebone and Aylesbury. Local buses, primarily operated by Arriva Shires & Essex, provide regional connectivity, while M25 junctions 17 and 18 offer quick road access to Heathrow Airport and the national motorway network. Amenities are plentiful and cater to a high quality of life, with a bustling town center featuring diverse shops, supermarkets (including a potential Lidl development), independent boutiques, cafes, and restaurants along tree-lined avenues. Education is a strong draw, with highly regarded state and private schools in the area, contributing to its family-friendly appeal.
Leisure and recreational facilities abound, including the William Penn Leisure Centre with an indoor swimming pool and sports amenities, and the expansive Rickmansworth Aquadrome-a 41-hectare local nature reserve offering lakes for fishing, water skiing, and sailing, open grassland, woodland trails, a cafe, and children's play areas. Cultural highlights include the 515-seat Watersmeet theatre for performances and events, while sports enthusiasts can enjoy clubs for cricket (dating back to 1787), rugby, tennis, and more. Annual community events like Ricky Week in May, the Rickmansworth Festival, Ricky Road Run, and the festive Starlight Evening in November add vibrancy to the social calendar. Nearby attractions extend to historic sites such as Moor Park Mansion (now a golf club with gardens designed by Capability Brown), canalside walks, and proximity to larger draws like the Chiltern Hills for hiking or Watford for additional shopping and entertainment. Overall, Rickmansworth offers a balanced lifestyle with ample green spaces, strong community ties, and convenient access to both rural escapes and urban conveniences.
