Hertfordshire's historic and charming county town has long been a desirable place to live. Founded by the Romans, captured by the Danes, developed by the Normans (whose castle still stands in the centre of town), and expanded by the Elizabethans, Hertford today retains much of its charm as an unspoiled, picturesque town with a weekly Saturday market. Hertford has a population of around 24,000 and lies protected by Green Belt amidst the district's rolling countryside. The types of property for sale in Hertford range from modern houses to Victorian cottages. Estate agents in Hertford offer a two bedroom Victorian terraced cottage close to the centre of town at £249k+. There is also a good selection of luxury apartments for sale in brand new purpose built developments.
The heart of the town, centred around Salisbury Square offers a wide range of shops, bars and restaurants, many of which are housed in the town's beautifully preserved historic buildings. Hertford has three major supermarkets - a Tesco, Marks & Spencer, as well as a Waitrose in the town's Bircherley Green modern shopping centre. The town has several well-known High Street stores, alongside a number of independent traders and specialist shops. There are approximately eight estate agents in Hertford, as well as four of the major banks. Fitness fans are well catered for with the Springs fitness centre on Railway Street, and the Hartham recreation ground just across the river to the north west, which boasts a swimming pool, tennis courts, bowling green and its own fitness complex. Families with children who are searching for houses for sale in Hertford will discover there is a good selection of schools for children of all ages. The River Lee (or Lea) runs through Hertford, and the Lee Navigation canal runs south from Hertford, both of which provide good walks along the rivers and canals in and around Hertford.
The residents of Hertford benefit from having two railway stations. Hertford East provides commuter services into London's Liverpool Street station, and Hertford North, into King's Cross or Moorgate. The fastest journey time is approximately 48 minutes into Liverpool Street.
