Built in 1861 and sympathetically updated in the 2000s, this two-bedroom semi-detached cottage blends mid-19th-century character with modern comforts. The living room centres on a working open fireplace with a log burner, creating a warm, inviting focal point for cosy evenings. The house is small (approximately 522 sq ft) but well laid out for couples or first-time buyers seeking a character property close to green space.
Outside, a south-facing courtyard garden offers sun and privacy for entertaining, while an outhouse to the rear provides useful storage or utility space. A dedicated off-street parking space is a notable convenience in this location, and far-reaching countryside views add a tranquil, scenic backdrop. The property is freehold and being sold chain free, which can speed up a sale.
Practical details to note: the property has solid brick walls (no known wall insulation), double glazing of unknown installation date, and a single bathroom. While the 2000s renovations brought many improvements, the cottage’s age means buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance and consider modernisation where desired. Council tax band is moderate.
Set on the edge of Chorleywood Common within a historic cluster of cottages, the home benefits from excellent local schools, very low crime, fast broadband and strong mobile signal. This is a compact, characterful home suited to first-time buyers or those downsizing who value period charm, countryside views and convenient parking in a highly affluent area.
