Approached via an entrance vestibule and deep central hall, the property enjoys three generous reception rooms, three bath/shower rooms, a bespoke recently re-fitted kitchen and a utility room.

A sweeping gravel drive allows ample parking which in turn leads to two garages and private cottage gardens to the side and rear.

Woolmer Green is a pretty village situated less than a mile from Knebworth. There is a lovely church, a primary school, a large modern village hall with football pitch and children’s play area, a pretty village duck pond and some wonderful bordering countryside. There are also two pubs, both of which serve food.

London is easily accessible either by rail - with a mainline station located in Knebworth - or by road via the A1(M).
