THE PENTHOUSE AT THE REDWOODS
Quote Ref: 833720 when calling
Exceptional scale. Complete privacy. An address of distinction.
Introducing The Penthouse at The Redwoods, Maple Avenue, Bishop's Stortford - £1,000,000.
Created for the discerning buyer, this exceptional penthouse occupies the top floor of an exclusive gated development of just 5 luxury residences, offering over 2,200 sq ft of beautifully proportioned lateral living on one of Bishop's Stortford's most prestigious residential roads.
This is a home for someone who values space, privacy and discretion, but wants the freedom that comes with a professionally managed residence.
And its position on Maple Avenue is fundamental to its appeal.
With Bishop's Stortford College quite literally around the corner, The Penthouse presents a particularly compelling proposition for families choosing the area for education — including international families seeking an impressive UK base. Hockerill Anglo-European College, The Bishop's Stortford High School and Herts & Essex High School further add to the town's educational credentials.
For the discerning buyer, it offers several possibilities:
- A luxurious principal residence with the proportions of a substantial house but considerably less responsibility. - An exceptional downsizing opportunity for someone who wants to relinquish the maintenance, not the lifestyle. - A sophisticated Hertfordshire base for a London professional, with direct rail connections into Liverpool Street and connections via Tottenham Hale for central London and the West End. - A secure UK base for the international buyer, with Stansted Airport and the M11 close by. - A substantial pied-à-terre for those with another residence in London, the country or overseas, perhaps drawn to Bishop's Stortford by schooling, business or family.
And importantly, none of those buyers needs to compromise on space.
The expansive living and dining area provides an elegant setting for entertaining as well as everyday living, opening onto a west-facing balcony. The equally generous kitchen and breakfast room is complemented by a separate utility room and dedicated study.
There are three beautifully proportioned double bedroom suites, each with its own en suite, allowing family and guests genuine privacy, alongside a separate guest cloakroom. The principal suite also has its own separate doorway and access, providing an additional degree of privacy and flexibility.
Beyond the penthouse, beautifully maintained landscaped communal gardens are shared with just four other residences, offering established green space to enjoy without the responsibility of maintaining extensive private grounds.
A gated entrance, lift access and two allocated parking spaces, including one within the cart lodge, complete the proposition.
And when the owner is elsewhere, the development continues to be cared for. The communal areas and grounds are professionally managed, with regular cleaning, gardening and window cleaning - precisely the kind of lock-up-and-leave freedom that makes a residence such as this so attractive.
Bishop's Stortford itself provides that increasingly rare combination of London connectivity and Hertfordshire lifestyle. Direct rail services connect with Liverpool Street, while Tottenham Hale provides onward access via the Victoria line. Stansted Airport is close by, yet at home you have the restaurants, bars, cafés, shopping, leisure, riverside walks and countryside that make Bishop's Stortford such an appealing place to live.
The Penthouse at The Redwoods is not simply an alternative to a substantial house.
It is a different way of living altogether.
Space without the upkeep. Privacy without isolation. Luxury without complication. London when you need it. Hertfordshire when you don't.
