One of the finest houses in Bishop's Stortford - offering sumptuous entertaining space in an exclusive setting. Within a mile of the town centre on a prestigious road.
Set well back from the road behind a private, electronically gated frontage, Berkeley House was built in 2011 to exacting standards by a well known local developer for his own occupation.
The house was specced to a high standard from new with air conditioning, under floor heating and high end kitchen appliances. Whole house is bright and airy with lots of light through the large atrium hallway and panoramic views across the parkland style garden towards woodland to the rear.
The spacious entrance hallway provides access to the principal reception rooms and a guest cloakroom. Across the back of the house is a fabulous open plan living space incorporating the kitchen, dining and living areas, with sliding doors opening onto the south facing terrace to the rear. In addition, there are three further rooms, currently used as a formal sitting room, study and playroom.
Continuing further along the hall you will find the gym, shower room and utility room, through which you can access the guest annex, garaging and cart lodge.
Upstairs, on the first floor, there are three bedroom suites and a useful laundry room. The principal bedroom has his and hers dressing rooms and access onto a private balcony.
On the second floor there are two further bedrooms, both of which are en suite.
The guest annex has a large open plan living / bedroom area with en suite shower room.
The mature, carefully landscaped grounds extend to 1.3 acres and have been designed with ease of maintenance in mind - with large lawn areas flanked by a variety of specimen trees and shrubs. An expansive south facing terrace wraps across the back of the house incorporating the swimming pool and hot tub.
To the front of the house there is plenty of parking in front of the double garage and cart lodge.

For someone looking for the grandeur of mansion style living, with a great specification, offering fantastic reception spaces yet within a leisurely stroll of the bustling town centre and train station, then this house really does have it all! I love the fact that the house is hidden behind gates - a subtle and secure setting to come home to each night.
