Merlins is a very substantial 1960's style detached house situated in a prestigious location in the exclusive Loudwater and Croxley Green borders. Merlins is set within a mature landscaped plot which has the benefit of additional lightly wooded paddock space. The name originated from a former owner fighter pilot who flew Merlin fighter planes in WW2. The extensive grounds were originally a Rose Nursery. The current accommodation is homely and versatile, the property offers enormous potential to create a stunning family home in a peaceful location but just minutes from local shops, the Green and easy access to stations and motorway network. This lovely house offers 3363 sq ft of living space with three reception rooms, a conservatory and four very well proportioned bedrooms, the master with en-suite bathroom. Additional benefits include swimming pool, dedicated wine cellar, two acre garden plus a two acre paddock, extensive greenhouses and workshop. A winding driveway with gated entrance leads from Sarratt Road along the north eastern boundary into a driveway. This driveway serves a double garage and a workshop as well as access to the paddocks. The main front entrance opens into a spacious welcoming hallway and affords easy access to all main living accommodation and a farmhouse style kitchen. Most of these rooms have lovely views over the south west facing gardens and grounds. The house sits just off Sarratt Road and just beyond The Green and it affords easy access to London via Rickmansworth and Croxley Stations with the Metropolitan line into Baker Street and Chiltern line into Marylebone.
