This attractive 1920s cottage blends original character with a contemporary open-plan layout, creating a comfortable, low-maintenance home for downsizers seeking village life. The ground floor’s natural slate flooring, exposed beams and a bespoke kitchen with integrated appliances give the house a high-quality finish while retaining period charm.
Upstairs offers two double bedrooms, including a generous 19' master with built-in wardrobes, served by a stylish bathroom with separate shower. The compact footprint is well arranged for everyday living and benefits from a secluded south-facing courtyard that provides a sunny, private outdoor space with a stone terrace and planted borders.
Practical points are clear and factual: the property is solid-brick construction typical of its era (insulation status assumed absent), tenure is unknown, and council tax is above average for the area. Broadband is average; mobile signal is excellent. The house has been recently renovated to a high standard but remains small-to-average in size, best suited to one- or two-person households or as a lock-up-and-leave village home.
Located in the heart of Long Crendon, the cottage sits in an affluent, low-crime village environment with local amenities and primary schools nearby, and Haddenham & Thame Parkway providing London Marylebone access in under 40 minutes. The property represents a characterful, move-in-ready option for buyers prioritising village living and a south-facing courtyard rather than extensive garden or large family accommodation.
