Property description

The spacious, detached house on Peregrine Way, Hatfield, has provided peace, privacy and the opportunity to relax and entertain in style

Every time the owner of the property on Peregrine Way returns home, she reflects on the exceptional tranquillity of the cul-de-sac setting. “I was looking for somewhere close to London but quiet when I moved here 12 years ago – and this place is like an oasis,” she reflects. “It is very peaceful and private, because it is not overlooked, and is a lovely place to return home to after a busy day. In fact, when many people who know Hatfield visit, they say they did not even know Peregrine Way was here.” She adds: “At the same time, we can walk to the train station in 20 minutes to travel into London, and we are well placed for shops, buses and everything else we need. It is also well located for schools. It really is an ideal location to live in.”

The beautifully presented house on Peregrine Way was bought off-plan after both its position and its design caught the owner’s eye. “I loved the sheer size of it,” she recalls. “As it hadn’t been completed, I was able to have input into one or two of the finishing touches. The build went well and, when it was completed, the house was even better than I’d thought it would be, with much larger rooms than I’d ever imagined.” The interior was initially decorated in a magnolia, but after a few years, this was updated to reflect the owners’ personal preferences. “Other than in the cinema room, we kept to pale colours as we loved the sense of light and space throughout the house,” she explains. “The whole place has quite a minimal, contemporary style.”

The well-proportioned house is entered from the front via a central reception hall, which has access to the ground-floor cloakroom, sitting room, kitchen dining room and cinema room. “There are multiple doors, which give it a nice flow and make it very sequential,” she observes. “It is easy to entertain here because people can spread out.” The large sitting room has a bay window to the front and ample space for comfortable seating and even dining furniture, should that meet the needs of the new owners. Double doors open into the kitchen dining room, enhancing the sense of easy living, while also providing the option of separating spaces for privacy.

The kitchen dining room spans the entire width of the house and benefits from two sets of French windows onto the garden. It is bright, modern and airy, with a well-designed kitchen space and generous room for a dining table and chairs or a family relaxation area. “You can step straight out onto the terrace on summer days, making it ideal for anyone who enjoys hosting barbecues and summer parties. The design of the space also means you can see right across the enclosed garden, which is perfect for anyone with small children or pets.”

The kitchen gives onto a utility room, which has a door to the garden. Also downstairs is the cinema room – a superb addition to the house. “We had the garage converted to create the cinema room,” she explains. “But it could have all sorts of other uses, from a workspace or playroom to a sixth bedroom. We chose to have the big screen installed and to use it as a cinema, which has been great fun. We don’t use it all the time, so it seems special – we make popcorn and it feels like we are actually going out to the cinema.” She adds: “My dad and husband like to watch football in there and we have even used it for dancing when we have had people here for a barbecue!”

All five bedrooms are on the first floor of the house, together with the family bathroom. Two of the bedrooms have en suite shower rooms, making it easy to accommodate overnight guests comfortably, and the smallest room is currently set up as a study. There is also a separate studio out in the garden. This is currently used for storage but could easily become a superb office or leisure space. Subject to the relevant planning permissions, it might even hold potential to become an annexe. “I think I will miss everything about this place when I leave,” she admits. “It is a beautiful house and the area is so green and quiet. Living here really has been blissful.”

The house is set back from the road by a small front garden. There is off-road parking for two cars and access to the rear. The good-sized back garden is enclosed, with a terrace and artificial lawn. There is an outbuilding that could have a range of uses.
