Country cottage to its core.
Steeped in history and character, this enchanting two bedroom Victorian Cottage is perfect for those seeking the rural idyll, and also has the added advantage of its own garage and parking too.Â
Sitting pretty with picture-postcard appeal, this former Brownlow cottage dates to around 1860.Â
Inside and out, this gorgeous cottage is stunning, approached along a stepping stone pathway, through the beautiful front garden to the cottage itself, with its original mullion lattice windows and Brownlow crest.
Throughout, there is a welcoming ambiance, enhanced by the original stripped pine latched doors and wooden floors. The living room has an attractive, exposed brick chimney, housing a multi fuel stove; this lovely room overlooks the charming front garden and breath-taking views of the fields beyond. Â
At the back of the house, the attractive, extended kitchen/dining/living area is a fabulous place to gravitate to. The kitchen boasts a decorative fireplace, attractive traditional style units including a built-in dresser, polished granite work surfaces and a stone tiled floor. Â A lovely bay window provides views of the rear garden and the delightful stable door provides access to the garden. Â A cute boot area/pantry completes the downstairs.
Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms, with the front bedroom enjoying those fabulous countryside views. Both bedrooms are served by the spacious bathroom, which features a separate shower and free-standing bath.
This charming home boasts the prettiest rear garden, consisting of a patio area, lawn, and well-stocked flower beds and a pond. To the rear of the garden, and quite unusual for a period cottage, the outbuilding which was once a pig sty, is today a storage shed and a large garage, complete with electrically-operated up and over door. Â In addition, across from the shared driveway, there is the added benefit of a separate carport too.Â
Finally, the property is most convenient for access to Berkhamsted, Tring and Hemel Hempstead, which are all located within a short drive. Prospective purchasers with children may also wish to note the property is located within the Aylesbury grammar schools catchment area.
