Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
The village of Great Amwell is often referred to as one of the best and most sought after in the area, and within the village, hidden away in beautiful mature secluded grounds, is this wonderful character home that has been rebuilt by the present owners to an exacting standard and specification. The present owners moved into Flint Cottage over 25 years ago and always felt that it was a 'once in a lifetime' privilege to be able to buy a home in such a setting. They immediately set about rebuilding and enlarging the house to what we find today, a wonderful virtually new home that is full of character and that has been completed and improved since that time to an exceptional standard and specification. This is not a large sprawling house but 'just works' and they have raised their family here whilst enjoying the fabulous garden, large swimming pool and terrace, complete privacy and security, yet are in the heart of the village and only a mile of St Margaret's station (Liverpool Street) with the towns of Ware, Hertford and Hoddesdon just a few minutes drive away. "The accommodation has really suited our lifestyle throughout the different phases of life. We've loved and enjoyed the house having raised the children here and now they've fled the nest, we find it is still the perfect size for us and that we can travel and enjoy ourselves in the knowledge that the house is safe and secure and always wonderful to come home to". Clearly the house has been a labour of love and recently the en suite shower room has been refitted and the whole house is beautifully cared for and presented.

Garden
Flint Cottage is hidden away behind high hedges and electric gates that lead up the long driveway to the house. As soon as one approaches you cannot help but be impressed. the meticulously cared for lawns and hedges stretch in front of you. There are mature shrubs, well stocked borders and trees throughout the garden catching ones eye. Adjoining the house is a terrace that is great for entertaining but the real treat lies to the far side of the house where one comes across the swimming pool terrace. This is a family's dream and has been enjoyed on so many occasions by the owners. The large heated pool is the draw and the whole terrace benefits from such privacy. Adjoining the pool area is a summerhouse/changing room. In all the plot extends to approximately three quarters of an acre
