The Pines lies at the edge of the Conservation Area on the westerly slope of the Berkhamsted vale. This part of the Conservation Area is characterised by Edwardian houses with brick and pebble-dashed walls, white-painted woodwork and plain-tiled roofs.

The site was purchased for development in 2006 and following a very lengthy planning process, a scheme for 6 dwellings was agreed in 2013. The design by local Architectural Practice, The Project Design Studio, evolved throughout this period, to ensure the completed buildings paid homage to the existing Property and the surrounding area.

The Pines itself was designed in a late Arts & Crafts style but not built until c.1947, the design is reflective of the earlier William Burr designed Edwardian houses to the south end of North Road. The form of the new development reflects its position within the Conservation Area as a whole, whilst the design references of the buildings relate to those of the neighbouring properties 17-24 North Road, giving the impression of the North Road image extending seamlessly into the site. Whilst retaining the contrast of style between the buildings flanking the road and the style of The Pines.

The purchasers of these wonderful properties will be buying into one of the only architect designed, newly built developments in this area. Built by E J Waterhouse, a local builder established over 100 years ago, with an unrivalled local reputation for quality construction. This development offers a unique opportunity to purchase within the Charles Street Conservation area, but crucially with a newly constructed, quality built, individually designed, modern property.
