This substantial 19th‑century detached cottage offers about 2,200 sqft of flexible living arranged over traditional layouts, ideal for growing families seeking village life within easy commuting distance. Period features — exposed stonework, oak joinery, two wood‑burning stoves and a pair of feature fireplaces — are combined with a recently refurbished bespoke kitchen and useful modern upgrades such as double glazing installed after 2002.
The accommodation includes a generous master bedroom with an en‑suite, three further double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, plus a versatile fifth room currently used as a study. Living space is varied: an L‑shaped family room opening to a lower sun terrace, a cosy sitting room with low ceiling and exposed beam, and a separate snug/dining room with additional stove and substantial built‑in storage including a safe.
Outside, the mature rear plot is a standout: three sun terraces, large lawned areas and a powered summerhouse suitable as a studio, office or gym. The property sits in a highly desirable Buckinghamshire village with local shops, pubs and good schools; the mainline station is approximately 4 miles away for commuters.
A few practical points to note: the house’s cob walls are charming but can require specialist maintenance and attention over time. Council tax is described as quite expensive. Overall, this is a well‑presented period home that balances character with contemporary comforts and strong outdoor space potential.
