Last Home Remaining in Hertfordshire Hotspot

Just one four-bedroom home remains at Midsummer Vale, Catalyst’s exclusive development of 55 two- to five-bedroom houses in the countryside village of Walkern, Hertfordshire. As buyers increasingly look to the Home Counties for their dream home, the development answers the demand for properties in the more rural parts of the Southeast.

Ideal for a family searching for their forever home, the final house, Plot 74 ‘The Thornberry’, features four bedrooms, and is arranged across two storeys. From serving up dinner at mealtimes in the spacious open plan kitchen/dining area, to creating a playroom or entertaining space in the separate living room, the floorplan of the house caters to modern family living. Further highlights include four bathrooms, of which two are ensuites, a dedicated utility room and a rare double garage.

Now available, buyers of this plot can reduce their mortgage by using the deposit incentive, where they will receive up to £15,000 towards their deposit when reserving The Thornberry before the end of December.

Steve Pickering, Head of Sales and Marketing (Counties) at Catalyst, comments: “Our family homes at Midsummer Vale have been extremely popular with those searching for their forever home in the countryside – accommodating the search for a spacious, stylish home and a garden, without compromising on location or amenities. Located in the historic village of Walkern, home to eye-catching green space, an impressive gallery, and a village school, the homes are in perfect proximity to both the village and rolling countryside, whilst also boasting excellent transport links into the capital. We’re delighted to be marketing our final remaining home at this popular development.”

Midsummer Vale’s high-quality homes have been designed with modern family living in mind. Spacious interiors feature premium touches including designer kitchen units, chrome finishing, and underfloor heating. Outside, landscaped front gardens and a dedicated patio area to the rear garden are included as standard.

The village of Walkern dates back to the Saxon period and is characterised by its rich history. Combining historic buildings, which include the 11th century St Mary’s Church and medieval Bridgefoot Farm, with modern amenities such as the Walkern Sports and Community Centre, beauty salon, and a range of beloved pubs and restaurants, Walkern offers the desirable lifestyle often associated with village living. 

The local area offers school options for a range of ages – Walkern Primary school is just a five minute walk from the development, while for older children, secondary schools the Nobel School and Marriotts School are both less than a 10 minute drive away. 

For residents needing to commute, Stevenage train station is a short 10-minute drive away – with train journeys to London Kings Cross taking 24 minutes and London Bridge taking 42 minutes. For easy road journeys, the nearby A602 and A10 connect to the M1. 

The final four-bedroom home at Midsummer Vale is priced at £690,000.
