6 bed detached house for sale

Barwick, High Cross, Ware, Hertfordshire SG11

A flexible and spacious residence, perfectly suited for large families or those in need of multi-generational living. Ideally positioned with ample off-road parking, the property also features an expansive rear garden, offering excellent space for outdoor relaxation and entertaining.

Steeped in local history, the building was originally constructed to serve munition workers in the area, reflecting Barwick’s industrial past. It first opened as The Factory Arms before being renamed The Duke of Wellington around 1904. For decades, it stood as a well-known community hub, providing a social focal point for local residents. The pub continued trading until the late 1990s, after which it was sensitively converted into the private residence seen today, with remnants of its heritage still adding charm and character throughout.

Rich in character, the home presents exciting potential for further enhancement, including the option to extend (subject to the necessary planning permissions). The current layout is cleverly arranged, with the main residence comprising four bedrooms, alongside a self-contained two-bedroom annex. This adaptable configuration provides the option to retain separate living quarters or seamlessly integrate both sections into one substantial family home.

Inside, the property is well maintained, offering a bright and inviting atmosphere throughout. Generous room sizes and abundant natural light create a comfortable and practical living environment. Whether utilised as a single residence or dual accommodation, this versatile home can easily be tailored to suit a variety of lifestyles and needs.

High Cross is situated to the north of Ware and Hertford (approximately three and four miles respectively) both providing a wide range of social, recreational and educational facilities and train stations with regular services for commuters to London. There is access to the A10 by-pass which provides a link to the north, London and the M25.
