Property description

A period extended, three/four bedroom cottage with off street parking and south-westerly facing garden, close to Princes Risborough centre and train station.

Believed to date back to the late 18th century, the property, with brick and flint elevations under a slate roof, was originally two separate cottages. Extended in the 1970s and again 5 years ago with old stock bricks, it now provides over 1,780 sq. ft. of accommodation arranged over two floors. The front door opens to a porch with a storage cupboard and accesses the dining room, which, with the adjacent sitting room, is in the oldest part of the property. The over 15 ft, by nearly 11 ft. dining room has beams, an open fireplace with flanking windows and brick ledges, and the staircase. The sitting room also has beams, a brick fireplace with an inset gas stove, and a herringbone parquet floor. The kitchen/breakfast room is at the rear and has wooden farmhouse style wall and base units with a granite worktop and a pantry with a marble shelf. The utility room and play/hobby room, with French doors to the front, are accessed via a glazed porch/boot room off the kitchen.

Bedrooms

Rising from the dining room, the staircase leads to a longitudinal first floor landing at the rear of the cottage with a Velux window above and a storage cupboard. The four piece family bathroom and four bedrooms, one currently used as an office, lead off this landing. The principal bedroom overlooks the garden and has an en suite shower room, two fitted cupboards and a walkthrough to a dual aspect dressing room. There are three further bedrooms, one with a fitted cupboard, which share a family bathroom.

Outside

There is off street parking for two cars. Gated side access leads under a covered walkway to the rear garden. A brick paved patio provides a private space for outside dining from where brick steps lead up to a raised lawn which is retained by brick and flint walls. The garden is enclosed by wooden fencing and established shrub and flower borders.
