Flat for sale with 2 bedrooms, Highfield Lane, Tyttenhanger

Occupying a particularly peaceful position within approximately six acres of mature, landscaped grounds, this beautifully appointed two-bedroom apartment forms part of the distinguished Highfield Hall, a characterful former country residence dating back to the 19th century. The property also benefits from two allocated parking bays, providing excellent convenience for residents and their guests. Steeped in local heritage and once associated with prominent local landowner and philanthropist Charles Morris, Highfield Hall has since been sympathetically transformed into an exclusive collection of individual residences. Much of the character and presence of the original building remains, creating an unusually atmospheric setting in which period architecture and contemporary living sit effortlessly together. The apartment itself enjoys a rare combination of space, light and tranquillity. Set amongst established countryside to the east of St Albans, it feels wonderfully removed from the everyday, while the city centre and its extensive range of amenities remain within easy reach. At the heart of the home is the truly impressive former billiard room, now an exceptional lounge and dining space. Its generous proportions are enhanced by a striking atrium ceiling, creating a wonderful sense of volume and an abundance of natural light. The scale and character of this remarkable room make it an ideal setting for both relaxed everyday living and entertaining. French doors open onto a private west-facing sun terrace, providing a delightful extension of the living space and an ideal setting for outdoor dining or simply enjoying the afternoon and evening sunshine. The fully fitted kitchen is thoughtfully arranged and well equipped for modern life, complementing the elegant proportions and character of the adjoining reception space. The principal bedroom is generously proportioned and benefits from a private en suite shower room, while the large second bedroom provides excellent flexibility for guests, family or home working. A stylish refitted bathroom completes the accommodation. Residents also benefit from the use of a communal tennis court, providing a wonderful recreational amenity within the grounds and further enhancing the lifestyle on offer at Highfield Hall. It is, however, the combination of the apartment and its exceptional setting that makes this such a compelling home. The mature grounds, historic character and sense of privacy create an atmosphere rarely found so close to St Albans, offering a wonderful balance between country living and city convenience. A home of genuine character and distinction, Highfield Hall offers the opportunity to enjoy contemporary living within a property with an established sense of history, surrounded by beautifully maintained grounds and open countryside.
