THE WILDERNESS

I am delighted to be presenting this exceptionally presented home sat behind gates in a highly sought after village, nestled within a picturesque landscape. This stunning property boasts a gated driveway that serves as the elegant introduction of 1 acre of grounds.

ACCOMMODATION SUMMARY

The Wilderness is surrounded by greenbelt countryside and is situated on Vineyards Road in Northaw, which can be considered as one of the top surrounding rural villages just outside London to visit or live in the country.

The gated driveway not only adds an element of exclusivity and security to the property but also offers a sense of serenity and seclusion. This wonderful home benefits from extensive parking for approximately twelve vehicles, with a double car garage, utility area, mature, private, and secluded gardens.

To the left of the Kitchen, you also have the all-important home office, a great space to work in peace or sit, relax and read a book. If you continue walking you then approach the family WC, and just opposite the storage room to hang any coats or leave any possessions.

One of the current owners’ favourite rooms and the main focal point of the property is the lounge.

The property is set behind electric gates which adds to an element of exclusivity and security but also offers serenity and seclusion. It also has a separate garage, an electric point porch, and tons of potential for a triple car garage.

The gardens are even more stunning. It stands on a very mature plot that is not overlooked, south facing with immaculate grounds, mature trees and hedging offering privacy and seclusion.

LOCATION

Northaw is a small historic & civil parish located in Hertfordshire surrounded by the greenbelt with access to either Cuffley or Potters Bar.

Cuffley is a larger surrounding village with multiple shops & services serving the local community. There are two primary schools in the Parish, Northaw Church of England Primary School & Cuffley School.

Location is the main advantage of the town since it is situated quite close but at the same time far enough from central London. Only 13 miles north of central London, and adjacent to the greater London boundary, but actually when you’re here you feel like you’re in the middle of the countryside.

It is 16.9 miles north-west of Kings Cross St Pancras, central London.

There are wonderful, open green spaces to enjoy in Northaw/Cuffley, including Northaw Great Wood Country Park. This extensive nature reserve is one of Hertfordshire’s largest remaining historic wood pasture commons. Just a 4 minute from the property and with over 550 acres of woodlands, heathlands, and open spaces makes this country park a unique park for the community.

Just a five minute drive away from the property is Potters Bar, which has a comprehensive range of boutique style shops along with restaurants, cafes and bars, including Tesco supermarket.

There are a number of well-established golf & tennis courses:

• Northaw & Cuffley Lawn Tennis Club

• Brookmans Park Golf Club

• Crews Hill Golf Club TRANSPORT:

The cosmopolitan feel of the town within Northaw means that you get a real sense of the local community being located on Vineyards road. In addition with Potters Bar being on the other side of Northaw, and Cuffley on the other, its excellent road and rail connections are a real draw. It is an excellent commuter town for London whilst being firmly in the heart of the suburban countryside.

Northaw is close to the M25, & M4 and A40 into London. Central London can be reached within a 45-minute – 1 hour drive of Northaw.

The town’s railway station is on the National Railway Station with regular fast services to London Kings Cross. Fast train takes 40 minutes to London Kings Cross For international travel, Luton Airport is approx. a 30-minute drive and Heathrow Airport is approx. 50 minutes.
