Chapel Street, Berkhamsted

VIEWINGS FROM SATURDAY 12TH JULY! Situated in the heart of Berkhamsted’s conservation area, in a prime residential location in Chapel Street is a lovely, period semi detached cottage with gardens backing onto the babbling brook of the River Bulbourne.

The layout offers: L-shaped lounge/dining room, inner hallway, fitted, ‘Shaker’ style kitchen, utility room and a store room. On the first floor, there are two double bedrooms, an en-suite shower room and a family bathroom. The cottage retains many of its original period features. Potential exists to enlarge the accommodation (STP).

Berkhamsted itself is a busy market town, located to the West of Hertfordshire and just 30 minutes from London by train. Perhaps the town`s most prominent role in National affairs came in 1066 when William the Conqueror was handed the English Crown. Berkhamsted Castle was built following the granting of the crown, and famous names associated with it include Geoffrey Chaucer who was Clerk of Works, and Thomas Becket who was Constable of the Castle in the 12th Century. Substantial ruins of the Castle still remain today.

Today, the town is highly desirable for commuters, with excellent transport links by road and rail. The mainline train station provides a regular and direct link to London Euston in a little over 30 minutes.

There are numerous leisure facilities in the surrounding countryside and the National Trust’s 5,000 acre Ashridge Estate is also close by.
