5 bed detached house for sale

Shothanger Way, Bovingdon, Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire HP3

Tucked away in one of Bovingdon’s most exclusive and peaceful roads, Berrymoor is a substantial five-bedroom detached home that combines timeless design with exceptional space and tranquillity. Set on an elevated plot at the top of Shothanger Way, this handsome residence enjoys beautiful, far-reaching southerly views over open countryside with fields to the front and rear of the property, and a sun-drenched south-facing garden—offering a rare blend of privacy, outlook, and prime village living.

From the moment you arrive, there is a sense of calm and quality. The carriage driveway opens to a generous frontage and a garage, with mature planting adding privacy and charm. Step inside and you are welcomed by a spacious hallway that leads into a collection of beautifully proportioned living spaces. The layout flows effortlessly, offering a large formal living room with garden views, a second reception room, a versatile study—ideal for working from home, and a guest bedroom with en-suite. At the heart of the home is the large open plan kitchen and orangery, flooded with light from the roof lantern with doors opening onto the garden patio.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress. The principal bedroom is a true retreat, complete with a private dressing area and en-suite bathroom. Three further bedrooms provide ample room for family, guests, or hobbies, all served by a large family bathroom. The ‘Tower’ bedroom accommodation would make an excellent living space for a teenager, accessed by a feature spiral staircase.

But the standout feature is the garden. Facing directly south, with a narrow belt of ancient woodland crossing the top of the garden, it’s a wonderfully private and beautifully maintained space with lush lawns, mature borders, and open skies. Whether you’re relaxing on the terrace, entertaining friends, or simply enjoying the view, this is a garden that captures sunlight all day and invites you to slow down and breathe.

Berrymoor’s location is just as appealing as its accommodation. Shothanger Way is a quiet cul-de-sac just a short stroll from Bovingdon village centre, with its popular cafés, independent shops, and friendly community. Outstanding schools, green open spaces, and excellent transport links to London - the Mainline Station being 1.2 miles away, with journey times into London of less than 30 minutes - are all within easy reach.
