Property description
A three double bedroom character cottage, with front and rear gardens and parking located in the conservation area of Princes Risborough town centre.
The property has recently undergone a programme of renovation including new plastering, re-roofing and new windows and doors. It is believed to be an old farm from the 17th century, and is a collection of small agricultural units which were amalgamated over many years to create the house as it stands today. As the name suggests, more recently it was a Garden Centre. Character features include exposed beams and brickwork, original stone and oak flooring, bay windows and a feature fireplace. The accommodation - in excess of 1,600 sq. ft. - includes a reception hall, a ground floor bedroom with a built-in wardrobe and an en suite wet room, a hallway with a bespoke oak staircase, a 20 ft. long sitting room, a kitchen/dining room and a utility room. There is also a separate garden room/studio. On the first floor there is a spacious landing which could be used as a home office. The master bedroom has an en suite shower room, there is a further bedroom and a three piece bathroom.
Reception Rooms
The reception hall has stone flooring and exposed beams and timbers. The dual aspect sitting room has a fireplace with an inset gas fire, original oak beams, a solid oak floor and a bay window to the rear. The dining area is open plan to the kitchen with terracotta flooring throughout. There is space for a table to seat six to eight people, and a door to the side.
Outside
There is a private, paved courtyard garden at the front with various trees and shrubs. There are wraparound gardens to the rear and side with a lawned area, a paved area, raised vegetable bed and mature trees and roses. There is also an outbuilding, with power connected, which is currently used as an artist’s studio and storage area.
Situation and Schooling
The property is 2 minutes’ walk from Princes Risborough high street and 15 minutes’ walk from Princes Risborough train station. The market town of Princes Risborough is situated at the foot of the Chiltern Hills and has a variety of shops, boutiques, restaurants and public houses.
