The Property<br />**STUNNING ARCHITECTURE**A MUST SEE**<br />This is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautiful, architecturally designed family home. Due to a change in circumstances, the current owners are truly disappointed to be leaving their country haven, having recently rebuilt and renovated the property. The home features multiple oak-and-glass facades and a quaint, Victorian-era cottage. <br /><br />75 Park Lane is situated in the green belt but is only a 10-minute walk to Knebworth Station and another 38-minute journey to Kings Cross. The oak-and-glass structure has been built to the highest standards with magnificent French oak beams taking centre stage in the new build. The property features picturesque views throughout: the old cottage bedrooms enjoy views of open countryside and the master bedroom boasts views of a spacious, south-facing garden with several large, mature trees. ‘Light, bright and height’ were the guiding principles of the ambitious build, and the architect-led design does not disappoint. This is the perfect home for families. With spectacular indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces, it is also situated on a large, enclosed and gated plot with manicured and wild zones to enable young children to explore safely the natural world. <br /><br />Property Description<br />75 Park Lane features two reception rooms in its Victorian-era cottage. The first is currently used as a lounge and features a bespoke bookcase that spans the full width of the room. The second, which includes the stairs and cloakroom, is currently used for music and play, but is large and flexible enough to be used in whatever manner the new owners see fit. <br /><br />The home's hub is a modern, open-plan kitchen/diner/family room covering nearly 100 square metres. Chunky oak beams are prominent throughout and full-length glass windows surround the extensive space, welcoming natural light during the day and creating a fantastic sight from the private garden at night. The Italian kitchen features minimalist, modern lines and includes three Siemens studioLine wireless ovens, a sous vide, an integrated refrigerator, freezer and dishwasher, and generous amounts of hidden storage. Underfloor heating lays beneath the Spanish limestone tiles and is controlled by a Google Nest thermostat adjacent to the utility room. <br /><br />Upstairs features five bedrooms and three additional bathrooms. The master bedroom features exposed A-frames and enjoys picturesque views of the garden. The four piece en-suite bathroom includes His-and-Her sinks, a freestanding modern bath and Carrera marble tiles. Bedrooms two and three are generous doubles with multiple power points. Bedroom four and five, still well proportioned in size, are connected by a contemporary three-piece Jack & Jill bathroom in marble. <br /><br />Further benefits include ceiling-mounted internet hubs on the ground and first floors, a gated HIK audio-visual security system, and parking for numerous vehicles on the plot. The garage contains a car charging power point for electric cars. Two, fully insulated lofts provide additional storage space. Although the home is already large, the new owners have the potential to increase its size by converting the garage or the lofts, or creating a "Zoom Room" at the back of the garden, each STPP.<br /><br /><br /><h3>Disclaimer for virtual viewings</h3><p>Some or all information pertaining to this property may have been provided solely by the vendor, and although we always make every effort to verify the information provided to us, we strongly advise you to make further enquiries before continuing.</p><p>If you book a viewing or make an offer on a property that has had its valuation conducted virtually, you are doing so under the knowledge that this information may have been provided solely by the vendor, and that we may not have been able to access the premises to confirm the information or test any equipment.
