A simply delightful period cottage beautifully set in a third of an acre in this charming Buckinghamshire village.

This beautiful Grade II Listed cottage dates in origin from the 18th Century and was formerly The Bear Inn before becoming this quite exquisite home. The property offers immense charm throughout and has unusually good ceiling heights for its era with exceptionally light accommodation, as the ground floor rooms all enjoy a dual aspect.

The original main entrance is as the front of the cottage but the door to the rear is used on a day to day basis; this opens into a reception hall with a cloakroom and a generous utility room. The vaulted garden room with full height contemporary glazed doors opening onto the garden is a wonderful place to sit and get very little done! The kitchen/breakfast room is well proportioned and enjoys a dual aspect, comprehensively fitted with shaker style units and granite work surfaces, together with integrated appliances. There is a separate dining room with Inglenook fireplace and a very pretty original stained glass window. The main hallway has the staircase to the first floor and access down to the cellar. The comfortable sitting room has a smaller inglenook fireplace and a propane gas burning stove.

Upstairs there is a main bedroom with a lovely vaulted ceiling and an en suite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms and a large contemporary family shower room.

OUTSIDE
The property is approached by a driveway providing ample parking and access to a large double garage which has a staircase to a first floor for storage or hobbies room.

The Gardens are an absolute delight with a generous paved terrace to the rear of the cottage, bordered by and adjoining a wide expanse of lawn, with well stocked beds and borders. There is a small copse of Birch trees, garden shed and vegetable plot. The whole setting is quite sublime and capped by the exceptional views
