Description


Welcome to Tall Trees, an exquisite example of mid-century architecture. A beautiful FOUR BEDROOM, detached single storey dwelling set within approx. half an acre of grounds, a MUST SEE for any buyer. Upon arriving at the property, you drive up a long private tree lined driveway, down to a large block paved parking area and a beautifully Scandi-style carport. Entering the property a large reception hallway, which is bright and airy, with doors into all of the principal rooms. Across the back on the left hand side is a stunning kitchen/family room with large windows in keeping with the design, polished concrete floor to give an industrial feel and a modern shaker style kitchen and island and built in Miele appliances. Across the front of the property, the most striking room is the sitting room with a large Scandi-style window to the front and a beautiful original 1950s fireplace gives a feel of homeliness. A large study room which could comfortably be used for a multitude of things, with a door to the front of the property. Through the kitchen/family room there is also a generous utility fitted with Miele appliances. Four extremely well proportioned double bedrooms, with bedrooms one-three all featuring built in wardrobes and an ensuite off of the master with his and hers sinks, shower and low level WC. A beautifully presented family bathroom with freestanding bath, walk in shower, low level WC and wash hand basin. To the side of the property there is a larger than average double garage. At the rear of the property is a large garden, mainly laid to lawn with mature borders, and a garden room currently being used as a gym, which is fully insulated with power and could be used for a multitude of things. The front and rear gardens are very private and can create a peaceful, tranquil space for anyone to enjoy along with the scope to extend, if a buyer required, subject to planning permission. Studham is a wonderful village with buses to St Albans and Berkamsted schools just a short walk away and Beechwood Park School is a short drive away. Please note the current owners commute to London each day using Luton Airport Parkway (19 minutes away) to catch the fast train into London or and occasionally use Harpenden/St Albans train stations, each 18-20 minutes away. Client Comments: I first heard about Tall Trees via Instagram as I had heard it was a finalist in the St Albans House of the Year (a television programme that celebrated architectural design). When it came on the market, I couldn't believe our luck. It is a mid-century treasure with the large central windows its most striking feature. Surrounded by stunning trees, you don't need art on the walls here, when you have ever-changing shades of greens and yellows outside. On a winter's night or a stormy one, it is a wonderful experience to have the 1950s fire blazing whilst watching the storm from the Scandi warmth of the main living room. As you fall asleep at night, it is only ever to the sound of a single owl outside. On a summer's day, it is the ultimate party house that can host many people in the large garden or you can simply lie under the cherry blossom tree in a hammock and soak up the silence. A versatile house that can be enjoyed alone or when in the company of many visitors. A family home and an architectural gem right in the heart of the one of the loveliest villages in Britain.
