For only the second time in its long history, Thomas Childs & Company are delighted to have been invited to present \"Old Forge House\" to the open market. Comprising two dwellings until the middle of the last century, one of which served as the village post office, this unique Grade II listed home is well located on an unusually large plot in the centre of the ever popular village of Hertingfordbury. Within, the ground floor provides three receptions which include a spacious and inviting entrance hall, a generous living room complete with grand fireplace and a further reception room currently used for dining. Extended outwards from the main house in a modern conservatory style, the large kitchen is gloriously bright with all-round views into the garden. Further benefits include a downstairs bathroom and a half cellar.Upstairs the first floor offers four generously proportioned bedrooms, a large family bathroom and a good-sized airing cupboard. On a second floor there is a sizeable attic room providing an ideal children's playroom, study or hobbyist's hideaway, with storage space off.The floor areas within the house total approximately 2,285 sq ft and the plot size is around 0.2 of an acre. Outside, the spectacular garden is completely enclosed by a handsome brick wall and solid timber gates making it safe and secure for children and pets. And, for those who like to grow their own produce, there is a well laid out kitchen garden area. A large summer house, with storage sheds at the rear, sits boldly in the garden and would serve well as a studio, home office or simply as elaborate storage. Accessed off the highway via a shared private thoroughfare, there is generous hardstanding for vehicles plus a double garage with two inspection pits (perfect for classic car enthusiasts!).A designated Conservation Area, Hertingfordbury lies on the western edge of Hertford, the county town of Hertfordshire. A short distance away, with safe pedestrian access from the property, lies the recently opened Grade II listed Panshanger Park and Garden. Hertford has two railway stations servicing London Liverpool Street and Moorgate/Kings Cross. Good schools, public, private and state, are within reasonable distance, as is the University of Hertfordshire which is served by one of two bus routes which pass through the village.We highly recommend this fascinating house. It is full of history and we think you will be surprised with the overall size and position. No upward chain.Viewings strictly by appointment only.
