Property Description
Hassobury Mansion is quietly located at the end of a long private driveway in the middle of gently rolling and remarkably unspoilt countryside. The original stone house was built by the Gosling family in the Victorian era and was formerly a private school which was converted about twenty five years ago into five exceptional homes. The building is Grade II Listed, considered to be of architectural and historical merit.
The Hobart has been carefully looked after by the present owners and some modernisation and improvement has been undertaken with great care and sympathy for the original building. This is a grand house of exceptional proportions with a T shaped hall with an elegant cantilevered staircase leading to the first and second floor and to the main reception rooms, which have a ceiling height of over 16ft and working shutters. The accommodation includes a ground floor cloakroom with attractive tiling, drawing room with a working fireplace and three quarter height windows, a dining room with a marble fireplace and overlooks the front driveway. The kitchen is well-equipped with many integrated appliances, the lower ground floor is used as a utility room and store and has an attractive barrel shaped ceiling. On the first floor the master bedroom has an en suite bathroom, there are four further bedrooms and two well-equipped shower rooms.
Outside, the property is approached from the main driveway which leads to a gated area where there is a central lawn and allocated parking for two cars. A drive leads around the parkland to a double garage with a parking area in front. There is a private terrace immediately to the back of the house about 20ft deep which is well-planted and provides an excellent entertaining area, then steps lead down to the original croquet lawn. The Hobart owns the section of lawn behind the house which leads down to the ha ha. There are exceptional views to the front and back. Away from road noise, railway lines or planes, this is an outstanding and tranquil setting yet close to schools, Bishops Stortford and road and rail links.
Agents note: There is a maintenance charge for the communal areas which is currently £235 per month.
