Retaining its box-fresh feel, furnished with flexible open plan family zones, pockets of privacy and a tropical garden to whisk you away on holiday each summer, discover No. 15, Lamb Street, a sought-after Henley-style Redrow home within walking distance of all Hartford’s most desirable amenities.

With river walks, woodland trails, pubs, cafes and two train stations just a short walk from the door, discover the essence of escape in the everyday at No. 15, Lamb Street, whose sun-soaked garden provides a real sense of retreat, replete with a bespoke outdoor bar.

Completed in August 2022, No. 15 – the last available Henley-style build, renowned for their spacious design and flow – has been completed to an enhanced specification, particularly within the kitchen where upgraded bifolding doors draw the outdoors in, and luxury quartz worktops and a range of Siemens appliances abound.

Park up on the driveway, where there is space for two cars, and where a neatly paved path edges the front lawn before reaching the front door.

Welcome home

Step inside, into the warmth and welcome of the spacious and accommodating entrance hall, where contemporary Farrow & Ball shades set the tone for a home dressed in earthy, hospitable hues.

To the right, the garage currently serves as a fantastic home gym, with space to house a multi-station weights machine, cardio equipment and free weights; also currently accommodating a sauna, ideal for those with busy schedules looking to stay fit and healthy. A versatile space it could be reinstated as a garage for a car and storage or other purposes.

Making the most of the space beneath the stairs, freshen up in the convenient cloakroom, with wash basin and WC, again finished in muted shades of greige.

Family moments

A soothing, reflective space, to the left of the entrance hall lies the lounge. Spacious and serene, the cosily carpeted lounge currently functions as a whole family space by day, returning to a calm, relaxing space by night. Dressed in subdued, grounded shades of Card Room Green, the lounge has a heritage feel, warm and in tune with the outdoors. Facing east, morning sun streams in through the window, before moving to the family kitchen at the rear, where it simmers away throughout the afternoon.

Ahead from the entrance hall, the kitchen stretches out over the width of the home, flooded with light from a run of bifolding doors, which open to create a seamless connection with the garden. Wood effect tiling runs underfoot, with a rug currently softening the seating area to the left, where a window captures glorious garden views and a television point to the wall is handy for game nights or the after-school children’s programming.

Indoor-outdoor living

Set before the bifolds, a dining table nestles beneath a trio of pendant lights, creating a sociable heart to the room, perfect for evening meals, Sunday brunch and al fresco summer dining.

To the right, grab breakfast on the go at the central island, with its white-and-grey veined quartz worktop. Ample storage awaits within the dove-grey cabinetry while a host of integrated Siemens appliances includes a 1.5 oven setup and induction hob, alongside an AEG dishwasher and a full-height double fridge freezer, with a generous walk-in larder positioned neatly to one side – ideal for every day family life and entertaining.

Tucked off the kitchen, the utility room provides space for both washing machine and dryer, with a door opening directly out to the garden and rear gate for everyday access and the laundry run in summer.

And so to bed…

Back in the entrance hallway, stairs lead up to the lengthy landing, where, directly ahead, the family bathroom offers refreshment, fully tiled underfoot and furnished with a bath featuring overhead shower, vanity unit wash basin and WC.

Off the landing, four spacious and relaxing double bedrooms await, each with their own distinct character.

A versatile double bedroom to the right, bedroom four is dressed in soft shades of powder blue and could serve for guests, as a nursery, or home office.

To the right, bedroom three is neutral in its décor, and carpeted underfoot with plenty of wardrobe storage available.

Turning right from the top of the stairs, the guest bedroom is a serene and elegant space, with fitted mirrored wardrobes and an elegant shower room en suite – perfect for teenagers or guests.

Seek sanctuary in the master bedroom, tucked away at the end of the landing. Evoking the night skies in its navy blue and gold palette, the bay window draws in light, with ample space for a chair, while in the large en suite, begin the day with a refreshing spritz in the double walk-in shower with rainfall head and handheld attachment.

OWNER QUOTE: “We’ve made the home cosy in terms of its décor. It’s so important to have a warm, inviting home.”

Entertain and unwind

Arranged over gentle levels, the rear garden offers space for both play and relaxation. A lower area of high quality, artificial lawn provides younger children room to play within sight, while the upper terrace – bathed in sunlight throughout the afternoon - has been shaped for summer living, with seating, a bar area and a growing privacy thanks to its elevated position and maturing laurel planting. With minimal maintenance, stretch out and enjoying the garden’s ‘abroad at home’ ambience, softened by colourful seasonal planting and the fronds of palms, served up beside the terrace – the perfect accompaniment to summer cocktail hour.

OWNER QUOTE: ““In the summer months, the garden really does feel like being abroad.We’ve spent countless evenings out here barbecuing, entertaining friends and simply enjoying being in one another’s company.”

Out and about

Step out and discover all that the popular village of Hartford - from its renowned schools, rural walks to its welcoming community – has to offer.

Highly regarded local primaries and secondaries are within easy walking distance, alongside The Grange independent school, making it so popular with families.

Perfect for those with younger children, from the door, follow a recently opened footpath to reach the river in just four or five minutes, connecting to Marshall’s Arm and surrounding woodland - a favourite walking route, particularly in the spring and summer months. A riverside play park sits close by too, overlooking the water and easily reached on foot.

Walk five to ten minutes to Hartford Hall for relaxed meals and its famed family-friendly, cosy pub atmosphere in winter, or continue on to Hartford village in around 15 minutes, where cafés, bistros and independent spots create Hartford’s lively buzz.

With a strong sense of community, there are scouts groups, seasonal events and the annual Christmas lights switch-on to look forward to.
