Property description

A Grade II listed 18th century three bedroom detached cottage with a detached garage with a studio/workshop above and wraparound landscaped gardens.

The property was built in the 1700s and was originally two workers’ cottages until a renovation in 1980. Character features include exposed beams, quarry tiled and oak flooring, latch and brace doors and an inglenook fireplace. There is a brick and hardwood conservatory which has double doors to the garden and overlooks the garden and paddock land beyond. The ground floor also has two reception rooms and a dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room which has a range of base and wall units with wooden worksurfaces incorporating a ceramic sink and drainer. There are three bedrooms, a dressing room and a four piece bathroom on the first floor. The garage has a studio/workshop above which has the potential for conversion to an annexe subject to the necessary consents. The cottage gardens measure approximately 90 ft. x 90 ft., back onto paddock land and are surrounded by timber post and rail fencing and screened by mature hedging.

Principal Reception Rooms

The triple aspect sitting room has glazed bi-fold doors to the conservatory and views of the gardens. There are solid wood floorboards and a brick inglenook fireplace with a tiled hearth, an inset beam and a wood burning stove. The dining room also has garden and paddock views, wood panelling to dado height, and a brick fireplace.

Outside

The property is approached via a timber gate and a path to the front door. A further five bar gate opens to a gravelled drive with parking for up to four cars. The garden is principally lawned with flower and shrub beds and borders and a paved seating area. A brick archway and a gate lead to a private paved patio, surrounded by flower borders and a box hedge. There is also a rockery with a pond and waterfall feature, and a timber shed.

Situation and Schooling

Cublington has a church, a public house and a nursery school. Local shops are available in Wing, Whitchurch and Wingrave, all within 4 miles, the two former both having GP surgeries. A wider range of amenities are available in Leighton Buzzard (5.8 miles) and Aylesbury (7.1 miles). The property is in catchment for Aylesbury Grammar Schools.
