3 The Property Avenue Farm is a striking Grade II* Country House with a particularly fine Queen Anne façade at the end of an avenue of Limes standing in its own formal Gardens and Grounds of around 20 acres. Avenue Farm dates from Medieval times, and in 1700 the owner, Richard Rayner, added the Queen Anne frontage, which forms the principal elevation fronting the carriage driveway. The house is mentioned in Pevsner s The Buildings of England, referring to the especially good façade of five bays with modillioned eaves cornice. The gardens include features designed by Julie Toll, a Gold Medal winner at Chelsea, together with a walled garden, swimming pool and tennis court. The property also benefits from a separate Grade II barn with beamed roof and triple garage. Situation Gosmore is a quintessential village in Hertfordshire. There is a Parish Church and modern village hall, two village pubs, convenience shop and a garden nursery. There is a lot of open space surrounding the village, enjoying the benefit of a village green, playing fields, bowling green and other equestrian facilities. There are a number of well renowned golf courses within the area including Brocket Hall, Knebworth (both private) and Chesfield Downs (public). Three well renowned Equestrian Centres, namely Patchetts, The College and Addington Manor are approximately 27 miles, 32 miles, 37 miles respectively. Whilst surrounded by its own parkland, Avenue Farm is only one mile from the beautiful historic market town of Hitchin with all its amenities, local schools (including Kingshott, Princess Helena College, St.Christopher s Letchworth and Hitchin Girls School) and fast rail access to London (fastest trains 23 minutes from London King s Cross). Services All mains services are connected.
