About this property
Occupying a prime position within The Ridings, an exclusive Heronslea development completed in 2019, this impressive detached residence extends to approximately 3,437 sq ft. Flooded with natural light throughout, every aspect of the home has been thoughtfully designed around the way families live today, balancing generous entertaining spaces with quieter areas to relax, work and unwind. Set on the former Patchetts Equestrian Centre and surrounded by Green Belt countryside, the development has become highly regarded for its strong sense of community whilst remaining within easy reach of some of Hertfordshire's finest schools.
The ground floor is centred around a magnificent kitchen, dining and family room extending to almost 40 feet, where quartz worktops, bespoke cabinetry and a substantial peninsular breakfast bar create the natural heart of the home. Beautifully equipped with a range of integrated Miele and Siemens appliances, together with a Quooker boiling water tap and Insinkerator waste disposal system, the kitchen has been thoughtfully designed for both practicality and entertaining. Wide bi-folding doors flood the room with natural light and open directly onto the south-facing garden, effortlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor living spaces during the warmer months.
A separate utility room, complete with additional storage, water softener and internal access to the integral double garage, ensures the practicalities of everyday family life are equally well considered.
The principal reception room provides an elegant setting in which to relax, whilst an additional family room offers exceptional flexibility as a snug, children's playroom, home office or television room. Underfloor heating extends throughout both the ground and first floors, complemented by an integrated speaker system serving the principal living areas together with the main bedroom suite. CAT6 network cabling throughout provides excellent connectivity for modern family life, whilst solar panels contribute towards the property's impressive EPC A rating. An electric vehicle charging point further reflects the home's forward-thinking design.
The first floor centres around a beautifully proportioned principal bedroom suite featuring a walk-in wardrobe and contemporary en-suite shower room. Three further double bedrooms provide excellent family accommodation, one also benefiting from its own en-suite shower room, whilst a stylish family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. Every bedroom benefits from bespoke fitted wardrobes, ensuring excellent storage throughout.
Occupying the entire second floor is a remarkably versatile suite, currently arranged as a generous guest bedroom with dressing area and en-suite shower room, alongside a dedicated cinema room. Subject to individual requirements, the cinema room could equally serve as a sixth bedroom, games room, large home office or independent living space, offering the flexibility to adapt as family life evolves.
Outside, the rear garden enjoys a desirable due south aspect and extends to approximately 75 feet. A generous paved terrace provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, whilst the expansive lawn offers ample space for children to play. The current owners have particularly enjoyed the garden as a place where children can play freely during the day before friends and family gather on the terrace for long summer evenings.
To the front, a substantial driveway provides parking for numerous vehicles in addition to the integral double garage. For added peace of mind, the property also benefits from a Verisure alarm system and CCTV to both the front and rear.
The Ridings enjoys an attractive semi-rural setting whilst remaining exceptionally well connected. Aldenham School, Haberdashers' Boys' School, Haberdashers' Girls' School and Edge Grove are all within easy reach, whilst nearby Aldenham Country Park offers acres of open countryside. The popular Three Compasses public house is just moments away, with Radlett and Elstree providing excellent rail connections into London together with Elstree Aerodrome for private aviation. The A41 and M1 are also readily accessible, making the property ideally positioned for both local and national travel.
Beautifully maintained by its current owners, the property still retains the feel of a much newer home. Combining exceptional proportions, an outstanding specification and one of the area's most desirable family settings, this is a home designed to be enjoyed for many years to come.
