Property Description
Hoys Farmhouse enjoys an outstanding location in one of East Hertfordshire’s prettiest hamlets and in an ideal location for those that need to commute or make use of the excellent local schools. This handsome Grade II Listed house dates back to the 16th Century and has a fine timber frame with rendered and weather boarded elevations, but in relatively recent times there has been a significant extension in cavity brick under a peg tiled roof, with hard wood and double glazed casement windows.
Hoys Farmhouse is a well-equipped family home with a drawing room with fine timbers and wood burning stove, an attractive dual aspect dining room and a study/TV room. The kitchen/breakfast room runs along the back of the house and leads to the utility room. There is also a ground floor shower room. On the first floor, the master bedroom suite has a vaulted room, dressing room and en suite bathroom. There are three further bedrooms, an en suite shower room and a family bathroom. Outside there are two driveways to the property, one recently constructed which leads to outbuildings, including a red brick detached building with a utility room and stables. There are four wooden stables and also tack store, a hay barn and lockable barn/garage and a pole barn, with a useful area for garden machinery and hay. Beside the stables there are two paddocks and a flood lit all weather manege and direct access from the paddocks to an extensive network of bridleways. There is a further outbuilding at the end of the driveway which has three open bay garages and a large/modern one bedroom annexe with oak flooring, underfloor electric heating and a wet room.
The gardens are a feature and lie to the north and east of the property with extensive lawns, mature hedging and a large number of established trees and a large pond with water lilies and lighting. There is an extensive terrace along the back of the house with a backdrop of maturing trees and views over the garden. There is also a paddock of about 3.7 acres to the south east of the new driveway, which is available by separate negotiation (see plan).
The property is set in the picturesque and sought after hamlet of Upwick Green in rolling countryside and almost equidistant between the villages of Little Hadham and Albury. The market town of Bishop's Stortford (approx 4.5 miles) provides a comprehensive range of social, educational and recreational facilities including a mainline station with regular services to London's Liverpool Street (approx. 37 minutes). The M11 motorway (Junction 8 - 5 miles) is on the outskirts of Bishop's Stortford and provides road links with London, the M25 and Cambridge. The A10 lies to the west (approx 6 miles) giving access to Ware and Hertford.
