Oliver Minton are delighted to offer the meticulously and lovingly restored East Wing of Furneaux Pelham Hall, a beautiful Grade ll* listed manor house that is steeped in antiquity and a landmark house set on the edge of this beautiful East Hertfordshire village.
The owners have spared no expense in bringing the East Wing up to impeccable standards throughout, with brand new décor, solid wood flooring or brand new plush carpets, contemporary bathrooms and en-suites, a bespoke kitchen complete with electric Aga, an additional cooker, two Butler sinks, white goods included and oil fired central heating to radiators.
Offering extensive and adaptable accommodation, there are two formal reception rooms on the ground floor together with a stunning kitchen/diner and a large glazed orangery/garden room, which harmonises beautifully with the house, providing a relaxing space and making the most of the morning sun.
A guest cloakroom/w.c together with a generous ground floor bedroom with en-suite facilities complete this floor.
The versatility continues to the first floor and a choice beckons for whoever resides here, as there are 3 staircases leading up to the 7 bedrooms, study, three en-suites and the family bathroom. The first-floor rooms all have the ability to interlink, as shown on the floorplan, yet remain private and accessible.
The mature grounds are mainly laid to extensive lawns, interspersed with mature trees and shrubs.
The main access is via large wrought iron, electronically operated gates. Once through, bear left and twin gates lead to an extensive gravel parking area, for the exclusive use of the East Wing residents.
A lockable storage area is also available to tenants.
A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY
Furneaux Pelham Hall has an interesting history and contains hidden staircases and hiding priest holes', places where priests could stay safe in times of Tudor persecution. Lord Monteagle lived in the main Hall at the time he was alerted to the gunpowder plot and foiled Guy Fawkes plans. The East Wing, currently offered on the rental market today, was used as the nursery wing for the Hall throughout Victorian times, but now offers a magnificent marriage of modern home comforts complete with noble traditions and history.
LOCATION
Furneux Pelham is a lovely un-spoilt East Hertfordshire village that is well placed midway between the neighbouring towns of Ware, Buntingford and Bishops Stortford. The village has a thriving community with the excellent Brewery Tap pub/restaurant, St Mary's Church and the highly rated village primary school all taking centre stage. There is an active cricket club and throughout the area are many bridleways and footpaths. Rails connections are found in Bishops Stortford and Ware. Both the A10 and M11 are within an easy drive.
