Dairy Way, Abbots Langley WD5

Nestled in a private and secluded setting, just a short walk from Abbots Langley High Street, lies the charming Antoinette Court. Originally part of the historic Ovaltine dairy farm, dating back to the 1930s, this unique development was thoughtfully converted and restored in the 1980s, retaining its rich character and heritage.
This delightful two-bedroom house is accessed via an inviting internal courtyard, leading into a spacious entrance hall with a convenient guest W/C and storage cupboard. The bright and airy reception room enjoys direct access to a private patio, offering picturesque views of the beautifully maintained communal gardens. The well-appointed kitchen/dining room seamlessly connects to the lounge, creating a sociable and functional living space.
Upstairs, the first floor boasts two generous double bedrooms, with the master bedroom featuring fitted wardrobes. The stylish family bathroom is finished in a contemporary design.
Externally, the private patio overlooks the stunning communal gardens, which are impeccably maintained. The property also includes a share of a charming paddock, currently used for horse grazing. Residents benefit from ample parking, as well as a garage situated within a secure block.
Antoinette Court is a truly unique development, built by the Ovaltine Company in the 1930s and inspired by Marie-Antoinette's idyllic dairy farm in Versailles. Converted in 1984, this distinctive circular enclave features Tudor-style facades, exposed beams, and a central courtyard with a serene water feature. The development consists of just nine properties, with individual owners jointly holding the freehold, ensuring a strong sense of community and shared stewardship of this remarkable setting.
