A Timeless 1930s Arts and Crafts Home in the Heart of Felden on one of West Hertfordshire’s Premier roads, Sheethanger Lane, a wonderful tree lined private road.
Set within the tranquil and private hamlet, this striking seven-bedroom detached house from the 1930s offers a wonderful blend of classic Arts and Crafts architecture and modern family living. With over 6,300 sq. ft. of accommodation primarily across two floors and nestled within 0.64 acres of meticulously landscaped gardens, this property provides both space and privacy, making it an exceptional family home. Felden House is perhaps the most secluded and private homes on Sheethanger Lane with mature beech hedging shielding the house from view.
From the moment you enter, the house exudes character. Original high ceilings, exquisite ceiling roses, a charming original oak staircase whilst the original servants bells remind us of a time now forgotten, all of these character features create a welcoming atmosphere, while large, versatile rooms provide ample space for both entertaining and everyday living. The formal drawing room and dining room offer perfect spaces for hosting offering views over the South facing garden, while the sitting room, snug, and conservatory provide intimate areas for relaxation. The kitchen, complete with a breakfast room, original pantry, and utility room, ensures practicality without sacrificing style.
The property also includes a one-bedroom annexe, ideal for guests, staff, or multi-generational living. This self-contained wing offers a sitting room, bedroom, and a shower room, plus a kitchen that could easily be reinstated to its original function. The flexibility of this space makes it ideal for a variety of uses.
The wraparound gardens are a true standout, offering both seclusion and beauty. The property is accessed via electric gates onto a block-paved driveway, leading to a triple garage and offering ample parking for several vehicles.
The south-facing rear garden is beautifully landscaped with a series of paved terraces, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. A secluded courtyard and kitchen garden complete the outdoor space, offering a blend of formal and relaxed areas to enjoy the outdoors. The rear garden is surprisingly private with mature hedging and trees to the boundary, creating a wonderful sea of changing colours, through-out the seasons.
