5 bedroom detached house for sale

A Grade II listed Tudor five-bedroom detached house with separate annexe and a party barn set in mature grounds of approximately 0.33 acres in the Hertfordshire village of Lilley. The Old Forge has its origins in the late 15th century and its Tudor heritage is evident throughout with four fireplaces, beams and a cellar, said to have hidden John Bunyan during the Reformation. The present owners have
undertaken significant work, dealing with the planning permission and building works, to create a home with history but adapted and modernised for 21st century life. They added a significant kitchen extension and an over 15
ft. boot room to the house, renovated the historic barn into impressive party space and created an annexe perfect for older children, extended family or guests. The house now has over 3,000 square feet of accommodation. The kitchen/ breakfast/ snug area is over 37 ft long and nearly 28 ft. wide and has a handmade kitchen from Harpenden designer Daniel Ramsay, with a bespoke five door electric Aga and two sets of French doors to patio areas in the garden. The property has gas central heating throughout and new windows to the rear.
