The semi-rural hamlet of Felden, situated to the south-west of Hemel Hempstead, sits near to the sought-after residential area of Boxmoor which offers a range of day-to-day amenities including local shops, a Post Office, restaurants, public houses and popular primary school. Hemel Hempstead provides a wider range of shopping, leisure and recreational facilities while the nearby historic market town of Berkhamsted offers specialist independent shops, a supermarket and numerous cafés, restaurants and public houses. St. Albans and Watford both offer more extensive amenities. The area is ideal for lovers of the great outdoors with the nearby countryside of Sheethanger Common and the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty offering a myriad of water meadows, footpaths, bridleways and ancient woodland. Communications links are excellent: the property enjoys easy access over the A41 bypass to the M1 and M25, Hemel Hempstead station offers regular direct services to central London in less than half an hour and London Heathrow Airport provides a wide range of domestic and international flights.
The area offers a wide range of state primary and secondary schooling including Two Waters Primary School (rated Outstanding by Ofsted) as well as a good selection of independent schools including Westbrook Hay Prep, Lockers Park, Abbot's Hill, Berkhamsted and Chesham Prep.
Set well back from the road, the property is approached over a gravelled driveway providing private parking for multiple vehicles. Extending to about 1.8 acres, the garden is laid mainly to level lawn interspersed with specimen trees and features a garden stream with footbridge over feeding a garden pond, an orangery-style garden room overlooking a paved vegetable garden with raised beds, numerous seating areas, a large paved terrace with gazebo-covered seating areas and swimming pool with inset jacuzzi, all ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining, and a detached stable block with three loose boxes, the whole enjoying views over surrounding countryside.
