A stunning Grade II* listed barn conversion set within an idyllic Hertfordshire village
Tucked away in a peaceful and picturesque Hertfordshire village, close to the Ashridge Estate and surrounded by open countryside, The Cruck Barn is a truly exceptional residence. This remarkable Grade II* listed home dates back to the fifteenth century and has been thoughtfully restored to showcase its rich heritage while offering all the comforts of modern living.
The interiors are defined by character and craftsmanship a blend of vaulted ceilings, ancient oak beams, solid wood flooring and bespoke finishes throughout. The property is approached via a private road and offers generous parking for five to six vehicles.
To the left of the home, the accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance porch that opens into a dramatic dining hall, full of period charm. This leads into a beautifully designed, open-plan kitchen fitted with Neff integrated appliances, quartz worktops, and a central island ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining. A separate utility room and ground floor shower room add practicality.
A spiral staircase rises to a generous mezzanine level a flexible space currently used as a home office, which could equally serve as a fourth bedroom. From here, there are views over the spectacular main reception room, a bright and airy space with large windows and a feature log-burning stove, perfect for cosy winter evenings.
The principal bedroom suite is located on the ground floor and enjoys direct access to the garden through french doors. This luxurious retreat also features a fully fitted dressing room and en suite bathroom with both bath and separate shower.
Two further bedrooms are located on the first floor, each accessed via individual oak staircases at either end of the property, offering privacy and charm. Both benefit from en suite bathrooms and views over the surrounding countryside.
The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped for low maintenance, with an artificial lawn, patio and decked seating area ideal for relaxing or entertaining outdoors.
This exceptional home offers a rare opportunity to acquire a unique and historic property in a sought-after rural setting, with the added advantage of no onward chain.
