Description
Dating back to 1780, this beautifully presented Grade II listed cottage seamlessly combines period charm with modern comforts. Having been thoughtfully extended in the 1960s and again during the mid-1980s, the property offers generous and versatile accommodation while retaining an abundance of original character features throughout.
A welcoming entrance porch leads into the impressive living room, where exposed beams, attractive wood flooring and a feature wood-burning stove with timber beam mantel and built-in log store create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Dual-aspect cottage-style windows fill the room with natural light, enhancing the home's timeless appeal. Stairs rise to the first floor, while a doorway leads through to the refitted kitchen.
The kitchen has been tastefully updated with a range of wall and base units, incorporating a built-in electric oven and gas hob. A door opens into a useful inner lobby, which in turn leads to the dining room. Enjoying windows to both the side and rear, together with a door providing access to the side, further leading to the rear garden, the dining room is another charming space enhanced by exposed beams that complement the original character of the home.
The first floor comprises a spacious double bedroom and a beautifully remodelled family bathroom. The luxurious bathroom features a walk-in shower, freestanding bath, concealed vanity unit with WC and wash hand basin, useful storage cupboards, fully tiled walls and a rear-facing window. Stairs from the landing continue to the second floor, where the impressive principal bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and dual-aspect windows, creating a bright and airy retreat.
Externally, the property continues to impress. A gated driveway provides off-street parking for two vehicles, while gated side access leads to an attractive paved seating area, ideal for outdoor entertaining and relaxation. Beyond this is a substantial brick-built outbuilding that has been comprehensively remodelled to create a highly versatile space incorporating a home gym, utility area, shower room and office. Offering excellent flexibility, it also has the potential to be used as temporary guest accommodation or as an annexe offering their own personal living space.
Ideally situated within walking distance of local restaurants, traditional pubs and everyday amenities, the property also enjoys convenient access to both Amersham and Chalfont & Latimer stations, offering excellent transport links into London. Families are particularly well served by the area's highly regarded grammar schools. Dr Challoner’s High School for Girls is conveniently located within easy walking distance.
This exceptional period home offers a rare opportunity to acquire a character-filled property with versatile living space in a highly desirable location. An internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate everything this unique home has to offer.
