In the owners’ words. ‘We have absolutely loved living here for the past 8 years. We’ve had some epic parties in the pool and garden space and being only 10 minutes work from Chorleywood station it’s so easy for friends to visit and for our commute into London which takes just over half an hour.
‘Moving here with a young family having excellent schools on our doorstep was amazing - two out of the three Ofsted rated outstanding village primary schools are a walk away and the highly regarded St Clement Danes secondary school is also close-by. Inside our home is very special the room sizes are all so generous and with our children being older now these is plenty of space for the family to do ‘their own thing’. We have been very happy here and are only moving on so we can accommodate our horses at our next property. Oh and I forgot to mention Chorleywood has six pubs all within easy stumbling distance!’
