House For Sale £725,000
Perhaps originally built as farm worker’s accommodation, this delightful cottage has been refurbished and extended by the current owners to create a deceptively spacious family home. A porch opens to the sitting room with a large inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove. There is a study area to the rear and it opens to the dining room beyond, offering an attractive vista through French doors to the terrace and gardens. The state-of-the-art kitchen is clearly the domain of a serious cook: Integrated Neff appliances and Silestone surfaces. A cloakroom and utility room complete the ground floor accommodation. Rising to the first floor, there are four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom to the rear of the house has a large window and makes the most of the south-westerly aspect with views across the garden to fields beyond.
Outside
Set back from the road, there is gravel parking for two vehicles and pedestrian access to the side of the cottage. A paved terrace is accessed from the dining room and hall and steps rise from the terrace to landscaped gardens comprising lawn, an apple tree and raised beds in the kitchen garden at the top. An outbuilding with a tiled roof and decking serves as useful storage. The gardens are largely surrounded by mature hedging.
Situation
Located in Swan Bottom, a hamlet of The Lee, many fantastic country walks may be enjoyed through open fields and woodland and there is a pub nearby, The Old Swan. The Lee is home to a thriving cricket club, a community shop and is considered one of the prettiest villages in the Chilterns, having been used as a film location for productions including Midsomer Murders and Endeavour. Great Missenden is 3.8 miles distant and offers specialised shopping and a train service to London Marylebone in approx. 42 minutes. Wendover is 3.6 miles distant. Buckinghamshire is renowned for its private and state (including grammar) schools, details of which can be obtained from the local authority.
