Set in the quintessential village of Aldbury within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this Grade II listed 17th‑Century detached cottage blends period charm with sizeable living space. The heart of the home is a country kitchen with reclaimed Victorian tiles, Falcon range cooker and garden room with French doors leading to a large, attractively landscaped garden that frames views towards Ashridge forest.
Interiors retain strong character: inglenook fireplace with log burner, exposed beams, reclaimed wooden floors and wrought‑iron balustrades. Accommodation spans three levels with a principal suite overlooking the garden, two further double bedrooms on the first floor and an additional double in the roof space. A cellar houses a tucked‑away home office and useful storage.
The garden offers three distinct areas — flagged patio, pergola and circular landscaped lawn — ideal for morning sun, entertaining and evening firepit gatherings. Practical features include a separate utility, downstairs shower room accessible from the garden room, and good broadband speeds for home working.
Important practical points: historic Grade II listing will impose repair and alteration constraints and may complicate works. Council tax is above average. While the property is largely habitable and well maintained, its age and listing mean ongoing conservation maintenance should be expected. Commuter links, village amenities and strong local schools make this appealing for families seeking rural character within reach of London.
