Studies have shown that the overall health benefit of living in and around green space is evident and its advantages are well documented. Escaping to a more rural setting is often linked to lower levels of anxiety, depression and stress, as it creates healthier cortisol levels, allowing people to live a calmer life in this busy world.
That is exactly what you can get at The Ridings, a collection of 50 luxurious family houses situated in the heart of the pretty, secluded hamlet, Patchetts Green in Aldenham, Hertsmere. Formerly Patchetts Equestrian Centre, Heronslea Group’s latest flagship site offers idyllic country living with ten acres surrounded by countryside and woodland, while remaining close to local amenities, transport links and excellent schools.
“The health benefits of living near green space have been known for years,” says Jason Rishover, CEO of the Heronslea Group. “The landscaping includes existing mature trees and new trees and masses of planting, so that all homes enjoy lovely views. Once complete it will be a wonderful, peaceful place to live and bring up a family.”
Buyers can choose from a range of different house types and sizes, with interiors finished with a contemporary and stylish decor. Many homes feature open plan kitchen/dining areas opening onto the rear garden, while generously sized lounges provide entertaining space.
The contemporary designer kitchens feature soft-closing doors and draws, composite stone worktops, contemporary glass splashbacks, chrome hot tap system for instant boiling water, stainless steel sink with chrome pull out spray tap and come complete with Siemens built-in appliances.
Some homes also benefit from a third floor with extra bedrooms and flexible spaces for games rooms or studies and every property offers the highest specification throughout, from the premium hardwood flooring with underfloor heating to the walnut doors, LED lighting and hallway cornicing.
The elegant bathrooms and en-suites have been designed to offer a sanctuary within the homes and feature designer wall hung sanitary ware and brassware from Hansgrohe, with luxurious bathing and showering options.
The homes are situated in Aldenham, one of Hertsmere’s 14 conservation areas, benefitting from a number of leading schools including the prestigious Haberdashers’ Aske’s and Aldenham School. There is also the nearby Aldenham Golf Club with its two courses as well as the Aldenham Country Park.
As well as excellent rail connections the development is close to both the M1 and M25 and just 23 minutes to Luton International Airport. Prices start from £899,950 for a four-bedroom home.
