House For Sale £489,995
This rarely available and highly unique three bedroom detached cottage occupies a delightful semi-rural position and benefits from well apportioned internal accommodation and impressive external space.
Approach to the property is via a wooden five bar gate onto an ample shingled driveway providing off road parking for several vehicles, in addition to a twin car port. A solid front door opens directly into the entrance hall which has stairs leading to the first-floor accommodation. To the right-hand side is the principal reception room, the living room, which has generous dimensions, over 18ft by 12ft with a beautiful inset wood burning stove with Oak surround and raised hearth. It also benefits from superb, exposed floorboards and an abundance of natural daylight which floods the room from windows to both the front and side elevations. From here access is provided into the kitchen which has been fitted with a comprehensive range of floor and wall mounted units with black granite work surfaces over. Carefully integrated into this space is a leisure dual fuel cooker with matching extractor hood over, whilst additional space has been created for a free-standing washing machine. A useful inset pantry provides further storage. Again, two windows grace this space giving superb views down the garden. Beyond here and nestled to the front aspect is a more formal dining room which continues with the exposed floorboard theme and has a box bay window overlooking the front. Completing this level, and accessed separately from the rear of the home, is a potential study, allowing the ideal work from home area. A window overlooks the rear garden. From the inner lobby a staircase leads to a bedroom which is of double proportions and offers a dual aspect orientation with built in wardrobe space.
Back in the main house itself the staircase in the entrance hall leads to the first floor and gives way to all accommodation on this level. The main bedroom is sizeable, in this case measuring over 18ft in length with a beautiful cast iron fireplace, stripped floorboards and range of built in shelved and railed wardrobes. It also has an attractive curved ceiling. The second bedroom is equally well proportioned, this time more than 11ft by 11ft and has been decorated in various contemporary tones and hues. It also has cupboard storage. Both are serviced by way of a family bathroom which comprises of a panelled bath with shower unit positioned over, low level wc and wash hand basin set onto a vanity unit. Stylish travertine tiling adorns the walls, and an obscure window allows light to stream through.
Externally the west facing rear garden is impressive, measuring approximately 145ft in length by 68ft wide and being laid principally to lawn. A large, block paved patio area is the ideal entertaining/relaxing space and has several mature bushes and shrubs dotted across the plot. To one side is an attractive pond, whilst the boundary is enclosed by timber fencing. An additional benefit is a separate detached outhouse which extends to over 39ft and which would make a perfect annexe for a dependant relative or to run a business from. It has wc facilities to the far side.
Westoning itself benefits from wide ranging amenities including a convenience store with useful Post Office within, two thriving pubs, a butcher, tennis club and Church. Children of school age will attend the village Lower School before progressing through the Arnold Academy in nearby Barton-le-Clay and then Harlington Upper School. Commuter wise Junction 12 of the M1 is approximately two and half miles away, and rail travel is covered from Flitwick and Harlington. Both have stations with a Thameslink service to London St Pancras International in 45 minutes and beyond this onto the City, Gatwick Airport and Brighton.
