3 bed semi-detached house for sale

The Green, Sarratt, Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire WD3

Delightful brick and flint cottage fronting The Green.

Description
The Woodyard is a most delightful brick and flint semi detached cottage, its frontage looking directly upon The Green. The original portion of the house, dating from 1860, has, in later years, been sympathetically extended to one side. Throughout, the property retains a wealth of character features: Oak flooring, original fireplaces and staircase and period-style radiators.

A pretty tiled path approaches the enclosed porch, which in turn opens to the snug – a cosy room with oak flooring and a fireplace housing a wood-burner. Bespoke cupboards are neatly set into the alcoves on either side. Glazed double doors draw one through to the dual-aspect sitting room, charming in its outlook across The Green, where a brick fireplace with a wooden mantel and a second wood-burner adds warmth. From here, French doors open on to the terrace.

The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a comprehensive array of Shaker-style wall and base units, finished with granite worktops. Integrated appliances include a Neff microwave and dishwasher, complemented by a Stoves electric range cooker, InSinkErator, and hot tap. Bespoke cabinetry frames the space for a fridge-freezer and there is a generous pantry. The original staircase, its risers tiled, ascends from here to the first floor. A utility room lies just off the kitchen, with space for both washing machine and tumble-dryer, and a door to the garden. A guest cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom to the front enjoys an original fireplace with tiled hearth and a run of fitted wardrobes. There are two further well-proportioned bedrooms, along with a spacious family bathroom, appointed with a free-standing claw-foot bath, suspended sink with cupboards beneath, WC and a separate shower. On the landing, a sizeable airing cupboard offers practical storage and drying space.

Outside
Set behind cast-iron railings, a cobbled path leads to the front door. There is off-street parking for two cars, together with gated side access to the rear garden.

To the rear, a broad, south-facing paved terrace extends the full width of the house – the perfect spot for al fresco dining – with steps descending to a level lawn. Borders with shrubs and flowering plants frame the space, bringing seasonal colour and seclusion.
