Grade II listed 17th-century thatched cottage with authentic period features
A rare Grade II listed thatched cottage dating from the 17th century, Hermits Cottage combines authentic period character with generous living space. Set on nearly an acre of established gardens that overlook open fields, the property offers privacy and a quintessential Buckinghamshire outlook, with five reception rooms and a principal bedroom with separate dressing area. The site includes driveway parking and an integrated double garage with a circular wine cellar.
Internally the house retains many original features: exposed timber framing, an inglenook fireplace, mullioned windows and ledge-and-brace doors. Room heights are unusually generous for a cottage of this age, though many rooms are traditional in scale with lower ceilings in places—consistent with its historic construction. The layout includes a kitchen/breakfast room, utility and multiple reception spaces that suit family living or flexible use.
Because the house is Grade II listed, alterations will be restricted and repairs must respect historic detail; any refurbishment or maintenance requires listed-building consent. Broadband speeds are slow and the property sits in a very affluent, low-crime rural village where council tax is described as quite expensive. Overall this is a character-rich home for buyers who value heritage, large gardens and countryside views, and who are comfortable with listed-building responsibilities.
