Hidden among the trees of the Ashridge Estate, at the end of a picturesque woodland track, this individual mid-century home occupies a beautifully secluded setting. One of just three similar houses tucked into a clearing within the forest, it is surrounded by mature woodland, with a generous garden extending the plot to approximately a quarter of an acre.
The house has an appealing simplicity to its architecture, with white weatherboarding beneath a steeply pitched roof and broad windows framing the surrounding greenery. Inside, the accommodation is generously arranged across two floors, with a relaxed, informal character that feels particularly suited to its woodland setting.
The entrance hall leads into a spacious sitting room, where a brick fireplace provides a natural focal point and large windows enjoys garden views. A separate family room offers useful flexibility and could equally serve as a third bedroom or home office.
The kitchen is fitted with contemporary cabinetry and includes a cooker, dishwasher, washing machine and fridge/freezer. The adjoining dining area overlooks the garden and forest beyond. A bathroom, separate WC and two useful integral storage rooms complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, two double bedrooms are arranged on either side of a broad landing, both enjoying views towards the surrounding trees.
Outside, the garden wraps around the house and is predominantly laid to lawn, with mature woodland providing a beautiful backdrop. The plot extends to approximately a quarter of an acre, while off-road parking for two to three cars is provided to the front.
Despite its secluded position, Berkhamsted and Tring are both approximately five miles away, with their shops, restaurants and mainline railway stations providing convenient connections to London Euston. Beyond the garden, the woodland paths and open countryside of Ashridge are immediately accessible.
There is something wonderfully unassuming about this house. Its straightforward mid-century architecture and generous windows feel entirely at home among the trees, while the surrounding woodland lends it a character quite unlike an ordinary suburban home. A rare opportunity to live in a clearing within one of the county’s most beautiful landscapes.
The property is available to rent on an unfurnished basis.
