House For Sale £525,000
Pretty period cottage, and with parking too.
Description
Old Forge Cottage is a charming detached cottage believed to date back to the 16th Century, situated in the heart of this sought after village. Somewhat unusual for a property of its age, it also includes a garage and parking.
The property is understood to have originally been three cottages, before later being converted into one beautiful home.
Downstairs there is a dual aspect, well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room, three good sized reception rooms and a shower room. The character on show is evident from the outset with exposed beams throughout. The three reception rooms are currently arranged as a study/snug, a dining room and a 17ft sitting room. The sitting room is particularly impressive with a stunning open fireplace housing a log burner.
Upstairs the character continues and there are two large double bedrooms, both dual aspect and with fitted wardrobes, plus a family bathroom.
Externally and to the rear is large private garden. It is mainly laid to lawn with a variety of mature trees and hedging as well as a pleasant seating area, perfect for al fresco dining. The property also boasts driveway parking and a detached garage, the latter conveniently featuring a remote controlled door. To the rear of the garage is also a useful store.
Location
The pretty village of Long Marston is located around 3 miles north of Tring, and is surrounded by beautiful countryside, ideal for walking, and including miles of tucked-away footpaths, the Grand Union Canal, and the Tring reservoirs.
Village facilities include a church, tennis club, pub, and village hall, while Mead’s farm shop and café can be found close by in the village of Wilstone.
Nearby towns offer a more comprehensive range of facilities, from the boutiques and coffee shops in picturesque Tring and Berkhamsted, to the shopping centres and department stores of Hemel Hempstead and Aylesbury, both of which also boast multiplex cinemas and extensive leisure facilities.
Nearby communication links are excellent, including the A41 at Tring, which provides a dual carriageway link direct to the M25 (J20). Tring also has its own mainline train station, with regular and direct service to London Euston in approx. 35 mins.
Educational facilities are excellent for all ages, including the highly regarded Tring School.
