Nestled within the peaceful rural hamlet of Chandlers Cross, Potten Farm House is a truly captivating period residence brimming with character and charm. Set on a generous 1.138-acre plot, this remarkable four-bedroom home offers a rare blend of historical elegance and modern country living – all within easy reach of central Watford and excellent commuter links to London.
A large reception hall warmly welcomes you into the home, setting the tone for the impressive accommodation within. The sitting room is a real showstopper – boasting a magnificent Inglenook fireplace, parts of which date back over 500 years, it’s a room steeped in history and character. From here, a door leads to the formal dining room, which opens seamlessly to the gardens through double doors – perfect for entertaining or enjoying tranquil views of the grounds.
The home continues to delight with a beautifully appointed fitted kitchen, accessed via an inner hallway, which leads on to a utility room and a downstairs shower room. A light-filled family room with a vaulted ceiling enjoys a dual aspect outlook over both the front and rear gardens, adding a touch of contemporary flair to this historic home.
Upstairs, the generous landing leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms. Bedrooms one and two benefit from integrated storage, while a stylish family bathroom serves the floor.
Outside, the grounds are simply stunning. Expanses of lush lawn, mature trees, and flowered and shrubbed borders create a private and picturesque setting. A charming well adds to the home's unique character, while two kennel buildings (previously used as part of a boarding business) offer exciting potential for alternative use or further development (subject to planning permission).
A deep gravel driveway provides ample parking for five to six vehicles, ensuring practicality matches the property’s grandeur.
Situated moments from the A411 and within easy reach of junctions 19 & 20 of the M25, this is an ideal location for those seeking the peace of countryside living with superb access to Croxley Metropolitan Line, Watford Junction overground, and the wider London commuter network.
Potten Farm House is a rare gem that offers a slice of history, a sense of space, and the opportunity to create a truly special family home.
