Railway Street, Hertford

Greenhill Estates present this beautifully appointed four-storey end-of-terrace home, built in 2019 to evoke the elegance of period architecture while delivering all the benefits of modern construction. Tucked away within a secure gated development in the heart of Hertford, the property offers over 1,800 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space arranged across four well-balanced levels.

Behind its red-brick façade lies a warm and welcoming interior, featuring generous proportions, high-quality finishes, and versatile accommodation suited to modern family life or professional living. With two private entrances, a raised decked terrace, a lower ground floor outside space and off-street parking for two vehicles, this home pairs architectural charm with everyday practicality — all just a short stroll from Hertford East station and the vibrant town centre.

Step Inside: - The ground floor opens into a wide entrance hall that sets the tone for the space to follow — high ceilings, a warm palette, and natural flow between rooms. To the rear, a bright open-plan living and dining area spans the width of the home, finished with wood-effect flooring, recessed lighting, and French doors opening onto a raised terrace. Just off this space is a contemporary kitchen featuring soft grey shaker-style cabinetry, quartz worktops, integrated Siemens appliances, a five-burner gas hob, and plentiful storage — all arranged with clean, symmetrical lines and a calm, understated finish.

Stairs lead both up and down from the central hallway. The basement level provides excellent versatility and independence, accessed both internally and via its own private entrance. Here, a generous reception room with glazed doors to the rear offers a space perfect for use as a snug, home office or gym. A stylish utility room sits opposite, fitted with complementary cabinetry, marble-effect worktops, and undercounter space for appliances. There's also a modern shower room finished in calming tones, and clever built-in storage along the hallway and beneath the stairs.

The first floor features three double bedrooms, all light-filled and well-proportioned. The front-facing room includes a built-in wardrobe and sash-style windows overlooking Railway Street, while the two rear bedrooms enjoy a quieter outlook. A family bathroom, finished in warm tiling, includes a full-sized bath with overhead shower, modern vanity unit, WC, and a chrome heated towel rail positioned behind the door.

The top floor is home to a spacious principal suite, with a generous footprint and a well-considered layout. On entry, a naturally lit alcove to the right provides the ideal spot for a dressing table or desk. The main sleeping area has ample room for wardrobes, with two additional alcoves offering further flexibility for storage or furniture. The en suite shower room features neutral tiling, a large walk-in shower, WC, towel rail and a washbasin (not visible in photos), all neatly arranged beneath the sloped ceilings

Step Outside: - French doors from the living area lead out onto a generous, elevated terrace — a beautifully finished space designed for both relaxing and entertaining. Laid with timber decking and enclosed by wrought iron railings and brick boundary walls, it offers a private, sun-soaked setting ideal for morning coffee, weekend dining, or evening drinks. A gate at the end of the terrace provides direct pedestrian access onto Railway Street, making it as practical as it is inviting.

Steps lead down to a lower paved and astro-turfed courtyard area, which also serves as a private parking bay if desired. This sits alongside a second allocated space, located just outside the gated entrance. Beneath the staircase, a discreet shed offers external storage, and further visitor parking is available within the development. For added flexibility, a private entrance at this level leads directly into the home, a route frequently used by the current owners for daily access.

Location: - Set within a secure gated development off Railway Street, this home enjoys a rare blend of privacy and town-centre accessibility. Just a short stroll away, Hertford offers a vibrant mix of boutique shops, independent businesses, restaurants and bars. With a strong local identity and a focus on supporting small enterprises, the town also provides easy access to supermarkets, pharmacies, banks, and cafés.

Hertford East station is only minutes away on foot, with direct services to London Liverpool Street in approximately 40–45 minutes. Hertford North is also nearby, offering regular connections to Moorgate. Road connections are excellent, with the A10 and A414 close at hand, linking easily to the M25, M11 and A1(M).

Schooling in the area is a particular highlight. Simon Balle All-Through School, offering both primary and secondary education, is widely regarded as one of the most sought-after in the area. Abel Smith Primary School, known for its strong academic standards and nurturing environment, is also a top choice among local families.
