House For Sale £425,000
A detached three bedroom period cottage of much character with walled garden and private parking close to the town centre
Tenure : Freehold
Description:
A detached early Victorian cottage of much character with a facade that includes some attractive detailing and glazed brickwork. A walled south-facing garden with mature apple tree fronts the property. The cottage is set well back from the road and has a private parking bay which sits behind the garden. There is also side pedestrian access from a public footpath that runs alongside the property.
The interior is of similar character with a number of period features including exposed timber framework and an open fireplace in the spacious south-facing reception room. A sizeable kitchen room lies beyond with ample room for dining and side access to the rear of the cottage. On the first floor the principal bedroom has a south-facing aspect. Whilst the property has been well-maintained there are certainly opportunities here to improve the interior and add value.
Location:
Watlington is reputedly England’s smallest town with its origins dating from the 6th century. The town has a range of sports facilities that embrace football and cricket as well as tennis, squash and bowls. There are good local shops including a first class butcher and delicatessen and some excellent restaurants and pubs. Watlington Primary school and Rainbow Corner day nursery and pre-school have an ‘outstanding’ ofsted rating and senior education is provided by the well-regarded Icknield Community College. The Chiltern Hills rise above the town and offer some of the finest landscapes in south-east England. There is much on offer here for outdoor enthusiasts, cyclists and walkers as The Icknield Way (Ridgeway National Trail) passes close to the town. Watlington is also the heartland of the re-introduced Red Kite that now soar above the town’s roof tops.
