About this property
A fabulously located 1920’s built detached family home with scope for enlargement (subject to the usual consents), set within glorious one acre, grounds and surrounded by exquisite open countryside.
Dolphins is ideally located, just off Northchurch common, and along a private road which is conveniently located for access onto the most amazing open countryside, whilst still within a healthy walk from the town centre of Berkhamsted.
On entry to Dolphins, via a solid oak door into the entrance hall, the considerable charm of the property becomes immediately apparent. The property has bright and airy rooms throughout, which includes a number of multi aspect rooms, all of which enjoy fortunate views over the gardens.
The principle rooms include a sitting room which has a feature fireplace as its main focal point and there are two further reception rooms, which include a dining room, ideal for formal entertaining and a further family room directly adjacent to the kitchen breakfast room.
The kitchen breakfast room has views over the front garden and to the side, as well as a generous range of eye and base level units with integrated appliances. The utility room is directly adjacent to the kitchen and serves as a rear lobby with direct access leading to the rear garden.
