A deceptively spacious and upgraded TWO DOUBLE BEDROOM mid-terraced Cottage situated in the picturesque Merry Hill area, with its excellent primary and secondary schools within a five-minute walk. The vibrant shops and restaurants of Bushey Heath are also easily reached on foot. Properties at this end of School Lane rarely come on to the market. This is an ideal property for first-time buyers looking to start a family; young families looking to be in the catchment area of excellent schools and those wanting to downsize.

The property has been sympathetically modernised with the removal of an interior wall, creating an exceptional 24’ through lounge and diner with attractive real hardwood floors and bespoke central staircase. The property has been extended to the rear to create a large kitchen with neutral stand-alone units and dual fuel SMEG stainless steel cooker. A lobby beyond the kitchen leads out on to a pretty patio area, ideal for entertaining in the summer months and beyond that there’s a 90’ garden.

The property offers enormous potential for further expansion with neighbouring properties having created a third bedroom and bathroom in the loft space and front drive with a dropped curb (STPP). There is also an opportunity to have an external office, or summer house, at the end of the garden without comprising the outdoor space (STPP).

Entrance: The property has a front garden which is mainly laid to lawn with shrubs in a flower bed under the front window and a mature eye-catching wisteria plant – a real talking point in the Spring. Entrance is via a hardwood front door with picturesque window feature.

Lounge diner: Upon entering the property the first thing that strikes you is the sheer size with a 24’ through lounge diner and beyond that is the kitchen extension. This creates an eye catching 37’ through space and continuous track lighting runs the whole length of both rooms to offer a visual connection. The light decor, real hard wood floors, bespoke staircase and floor to ceiling radiators are high quality and really enhance the look and feel of the space.

Kitchen: Beyond the lounge diner is a sizeable kitchen area with stand-alone units, large island feature and range of kitchen appliances: including a dual fuel SMEG stainless steel cooker. The room is bathed in natural light thanks to the large skylight. There is a small UPVC window which looks out onto the patio area.

Lobby and Bathroom: Beyond the kitchen is a lobby with combi boiler and space for storage. To the side of the lobby is the toilet and bathroom with toilet, bath and pedestal sink in porcelain white. The room is tastefully decorated in antique sage with a gold coloured towel rail.

Upstairs: The two double bedrooms off a small landing are nicely decorated with both benefitting from the original floor boards having been beautifully sanded and varnished. Bedroom one is neutrally decorated with plenty of wardrobe storage space. A fireplace provides added interest. Bedroom two has its own distinct character with wood cladding on the walls to one-third height and the walls painted in a neutral colour. There is a door leading to the loft space via a purpose-built ladder.

Garden: The garden offers ample opportunities for entertaining with the pretty patio area being the ideal spot for outdoor dining when the weather allows. A shrub archway separates the patio from the 90’ garden beyond. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with flower beds and a tool shed at the far end. There is plenty of scope for those of a green fingered nature and there’s also the potential for an outside office space (STPP).
