Property description

A Victorian three double bedroom detached cottage with three reception rooms, a garden home office, off street parking and an enclosed rear garden, in a village location.

This double fronted and extended brick under slated roof property has a combined nearly 1,240 sq. ft. of accommodation arranged over two floors. On the ground floor there is an entrance porch, a kitchen/breakfast room with an adjacent utility room and a cloakroom, as well as three reception rooms: a dining room with a fireplace, a sitting room with a wood burner and a triple aspect garden room with a vaulted ceiling. On the first floor, bedrooms one and two have fitted cupboards, feature fireplaces and overlook the front aspect; bedroom three overlooks the rear garden. There is a partially tiled, refitted four piece family bathroom with a separate shower and bath. The front garden is lawned with flower and shrub beds and is enclosed by a low brick wall with gated access leading to the front porch. The enclosed rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with mature shrub borders providing good privacy. There are solar/thermal panels which use the sun to heat the hot water.

Ground Floor

The kitchen has been refitted with a range of modern base level units with under counter LED lighting. There is a range oven and grill with a five ring gas burner and an extractor. The over 11ft. by nearly 8 ft. utility room has a further range of base level units and space for appliances. The sitting room overlooks the rear garden and has a brick fireplace with an inset wood burner. The dining room, also with a feature brick fireplace, overlooks the front and there is a triple aspect garden room with a vaulted ceiling, apex glazing, and a door leading to the rear garden.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms

All the bedrooms are doubles, the principal and bedroom two have fitted wardrobes and the principal has an original feature cast iron fireplace. The bathroom has a separate walk-in shower with a rainforest showerhead and a heated towel rail. The solar/thermal panels use the sun to heat the hot water, not to generate electricity. There is no annual cost or service contract. They work all year round supplementing the hot water system, especially during the summer, reducing gas bills.

Situation and Schooling

The property is within walking distance of amenities in the village of Adstock, which include a playground, a sports area, and The Old Thatched Inn. The village is in catchment for the Royal Latin School in Buckingham, which is less than 10 minutesu2019 drive away. The market town of Buckingham also has a range of shopping and leisure facilities, a library, and dental and GP surgeries.
