Characterful two-bedroom village cottage with courtyard garden and driveway parking.
Tudor-style two-bedroom charter cottage with authentic period features
This charming two-bedroom charter cottage blends period character with a compact, modern layout ideal for first-time buyers or couples. The open-plan kitchen, living and dining space features a farmhouse-style kitchen, integrated appliances and a wood burner that adds real warmth and atmosphere. French doors open onto a private courtyard garden — a sheltered spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation.
Externally the property benefits from driveway parking for two cars, a rare convenience in village locations, and double glazing fitted since 2002. Built before 1900 with solid brick walls and internal insulation, the house has authentic charm but is modest in scale at around 593 sq ft, making it manageable to maintain.
Practical points to note: heating is via electric storage heaters and the main fuel is electricity, so running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. Broadband speeds are average and services/appliances have not been tested — a buyer survey is recommended. The plot is very small, so this is not suitable if you need extensive outdoor space.
Set in the desirable village of Aspley Guise, the cottage is close to local amenities, a primary school rated Good, nearby secondary schools and easy road links to Milton Keynes and the M1. This is a characterful, compact home that offers immediate move-in potential with scope for sensible improvements.
