Location
Ringshall End is set in an idyllic location surrounded by the National Trust Ashridge Estate. The nearby village of Little Gaddesden is particularly sought after and just over 5 miles from the centre of the historic market town of Berkhamsted. Village amenities include a village shop with post office, the Bridgewater Arms dining pub with popular restaurant, and a farm shop. There is a primary school within the village along with a tennis club and cricket pitch.
Senior education can be found at Berkhamsted and slightly further afield in Harpenden, Markyate, St Albans and Hemel Hempstead depending on whether state or private is one’s preference.
Major shopping amenities can be found in Berkhamsted as well as a main line station offering a fast and frequent service to London Euston.
Just over a mile distant is the renowned championship Ashridge Golf Course, whilst a vigorous community life exists in the area with at least 30 different clubs and societies to join.
Description
Ringshall End has a superb location close to Little Gaddesden within the Chilterns AONB. The house sits well back from the road, within a plot which extends to about 12.4 acres and offers a superb choice for those who enjoy an outdoor lifestyle and even offers a pond for "wild" swimming. It borders the Ashridge Estate, which extends to over 5000 acres and includes the largest area of woodland managed by the National Trust and has over 30 miles of trails and paths available for walking. The estate also includes the Bridgewater Monument, a 108 ft tower built in 1832 which offer fine far reaching views.
The property consists of two separate dwellings, a large period house and a smaller cottage. There is great scope for improvement and extension and the house has previously had planning consent granted for a side story extension which would have linked the two buildings and for a stable block with vehicular access.

A large central hallway gives access to a dual aspect sitting room with fireplace, there is a further family room, dining room and kitchen with Aga. There is also a scullery, boot room and guest cloakroom. The first floor has a larger main bedroom with en suite bathroom, four further bedroom and two bath/shower rooms.
