For Sale6 Bedroom House in The Street, Chipperfield, Kings Langley, Hertfordshire, WD4 9BH£2,250,000

Grade II* listed farmhouse with annexe and timber framed barn set in about 0.5 acre Reputed to be the oldest house in the much sought after village of Chipperfield, dating back in part to the 16th Century and is offered for sale with no upper chain. The Pale Farm is a lovely example of an early Tudor timber framed house and would have originally been the farmhouse for one of the larger farms in the area. Descendants of US President Jimmy Carter also once owned The Palm Farm and extensively farmed the local area. It was one hoped that President Crater would visit the house but sadly this never happened. The property is Grade II* listed and retains many period features including the impressive square chimney above the inglenook, oak internal doors and exposed timbers throughout. The property was also once owned by the Blackwell family (Crosse & Blackwell) and a large 'B' can still be seen on the weathervane over the barn. The extensive and flexible accommodation in the main house extends to around 4,000 sq ft is as shown in the floor plans but of note are the impressive drawing and dining room and magnificent, vaulted kitchen/family room with underfloor heating, tiled floors and double gas fired Aga. On the ground floor is the self contained, two bedroom annex, adding to the versatility of this wonderful home. There is also a large timber framed barn of about 1,300 sq that would make the perfect home for a car collection or possibly a home office set up. The barn also houses a garage and workshop and there is a gravelled driveway with additional parking space. The delightful gardens and grounds extend to around 0.5 acre with gated access from the The Street. In front of The Pale Farm are raised floral beds and a very useful kitchen garden. To the rear the gardens have been thoughtfully designed with areas of lawn and hidden walkways and secret garden rooms. View payable Stamp Duty for this property
