A five-bedroom detached family home in Hemel Hempstead which has been refurbished with "spectacular individual flair" has hit the market for £2.5 million.
The property on Highcroft Road, listed by Savills, is said to have been comprehensively refurbished by the current owners and is now described as an "exceptionally well-presented accommodation".
The five-bedroom, three-bathroom house, is situated on 0.6 acres of extensively landscaped gardens, located on a private, no-through road in the Hemel Hempstead neighbourhood.

It backs onto pastureland, promoting a sense of rural living, despite its close proximity to facilities and transport links.
According to the estate agent, the house features underfloor heating throughout and air conditioning in reception rooms, bedrooms, and outbuildings.
On entrance, the house features a large open reception hall which introduces a Manhattan-style living atmosphere induced by part-exposed brick walls and an industrial-style staircase.

The ground floor also includes a TV room, home office, playroom and utility room.
One of the key highlights of the house is a double-aspect kitchen/dining room/family room at the rear of the property.
The area is flooded with natural light from matching roof lanterns and completed with an abundance of storage space, a large L-shaped central island with hob and double doors leading to the gardens.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a games room with half-panelled walls, a bespoke fully fitted bar with seating, another roof lantern and doors opening onto the rear garden.
Interestingly, the property integrates indoor and outdoor living seamlessly with an undercover outdoor entertaining space which overlooks the gardens.
The area is equipped with an outdoor cooking space and a wood-burning stove.

The first floor caters to comfort and luxury with a principal bedroom described to be part vaulted and fitted with bi-folding doors which open onto a roof space above the kitchen.
Access to a 200 sq ft dressing room and a luxury ensuite bathroom are accorded from the bedroom area.
Two additional double bedrooms are housed on the same floor and are served by a family bathroom.

Externally, the property is gated and features a substantial parking area, a detached garage and a landscaped garden with mature trees and seating areas throughout the grounds.
An appealing addition to the external spaces is a sunken seating area with a firepit.
The gardens are home to two substantial outbuildings currently used as a home gym and recording studio.
Property agent, Mike Lillitou, summarised the properry, adding: "(It's) simply the finest contemporary home available in the area, just exceptional."
