5 bedroom house for sale

Overview

There are generous living areas, versatile spaces, five double bedrooms and two bathrooms, alongside a private garden, a driveway and a garage

I am presenting this stunning  five bedroom home in the popular commuter town of Hemel Hempstead.On an elevated plot in a quiet but central position is this detached family residence spanning sizeable proportions. There are generous living areas, versatile spaces, five double bedrooms and two bathrooms, alongside a private garden, a driveway and a garage.The PropertyOne of a pair of executive properties, The Laurels is substantially sized for a large family, and designed in a traditional layout. The accommodation combines big, open spaces that flow well into each other, yet there are areas for separation when needed.The main reception room is the lounge, which is plenty spacious enough for everyone to snuggle up on sofas, warmed on chilly nights by the feature gas fireplace, or cooled by ceiling fans on hot days. Glazed double doors open into the second reception room, currently used as a snug. Being next to the kitchen, this makes sense as a dining room for sit-down family dinners, or as a playroom for keeping watch of little ones while making meals. Natural light streams in through sliding doors across the back, and these also give access onto the patio for when summer comes around. If open plan is preferred, there's feasibility to join the dining room and kitchen together to create an expansive space.The kitchen was refitted just a couple of years ago, now with contemporary white gloss cabinetry and grey quartz surfaces, with a freestanding quartz-topped island that seats five as a peninsula, or six as a table when moved away from the wall. Integrated appliances include an oven and grill, a five-ring gas hob, a fridge/freezer and a dishwasher, and the adjacent utility has extra storage, another sink, and space for both a washing machine and a tumble dryer. The utility also houses the boiler, installed six years ago and serviced regularly, and there's a side door for bringing pups in after a muddy walk.Lastly on the ground floor, there's a cloakroom on the left, and a useful office tucked into the front corner. Again this is versatile depending on what your family needs, whether that be somewhere for homeworking, homework or hobbies. For even more privacy, one side of the double garage has been converted. With its own heating, water and power supply, there's possibility for a studio, a salon, or a serious office set-up.Upstairs are five double bedrooms, the primary bedroom benefitting from fitted furniture and an en suite shower room, and the remaining four served by the family bathroom.The PlotThe house is set high up on a good-sized elevated plot, with a driveway and a detached garage on road level. One side of the garage has been converted, and the other provides parking for another car, or simply storage. Steps with lighting take you up past a lawn to the front door.Via a gate to either side is the rear garden, facing southeast for lots of sun. The garden is particularly private among trees, with no homes in front or behind, and only the one neighbour to the side. There's a full-width patio across the back of the house, and steps lead up to the large sloping lawn interspersed with trees and shrubs. There's also a raised bed for the green-fingered to get stuck straight in. For outdoor storage, one of the side passageways is under cover, protecting garden furniture from rain.The PositionWoodhall Lane is a green oasis in the centre of town on the doorstep of greenspace and within walking distance of Ofsted-rated 'Good' schooling and the popular Gadebridge Park. Gadebridge Park has all the play equipment kids could want, and runs alongside Hemel Hempstead Old Town, which has all the coffee shops and pubs parents could need, plus independent shops, restaurants and businesses.For commuters, Hemel Hempstead train station is just 10 minutes away, with services into London and Milton Keynes taking c.30 minutes, and for those working in the industrial estate, the address is a 20-minute walk or a very swift cycle ride away. You're also within easy reach of the A41, the M1 and the M25.You won't be stuck for something to do at the weekends or during the holidays, with Berkhamsted, Harpenden and St Albans on the edge of Hemel Hempstead, each with historic landmarks and days out to discover for all ages. For keeping active, Hemel Hempstead has sports facilities, football, rugby and cricket clubs, as well as leisure centres and swimming pools.Agent's NotesCouncil Tax Band - GEPC rating - DAll viewings to be conducted by the agent Jules Middleton.Please quote JM0792 when calling from Rightmove. ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING REGULATIONS  We are required by law to conduct Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks on all parties involved in the sale or purchase of a property.
