Property for sale in Aylesbury HP17, 3 Bedroom

A charming cottage set in grounds of 1.6 acres including a paddock. The original cottage dates back some 350 years and has been sympathetically extended retaining many of the original features.

Set in this stunning location with views over the surrounding countryside and out towards Coombe Hill. The cottage has been in the same family ownership for many years and the original building dates back approx. 350 years, was extended in the 1930’s and again in 2000. Many of the original features have been retained from the oak beamed ceilings to the inglenook fireplace with bread oven in the sitting room. The kitchen offers a variety of storage units with triple aspect windows with an outlook over to the stream and a rear door to paved terrace which in our opinion would also make an ideal area for a herb and vegetable garden. The original kitchen now makes the ideal breakfast room, which leads onto the main hallway. A convenient guest cloakroom which could be made larger to accommodate a shower, and latch wood door to the double aspect 2nd reception room with views out to the garden, the sitting/dining room is again full of natural light from the double aspect windows. Another latch wood door leads off the sitting room to the 1st floor where three good sized bedrooms are to be found. The principle bedroom is again double aspect and has a high vaulted ceiling. Leading from the 2nd bedroom is an enclosed staircase to the loft room ideal as a den/home office or playroom. There is also a good sized family bathroom.
