A stunning brick and flint home given a contemporary makeover and offering 2000 sq ft of beautifully presented accommodation. Overlooking the village green, and with a tandem double garage and gorgeous private garden, viewing is a must!

Chiltern Cottage is 400 years old and originally a wheelwright’s workshop. It is a home that really tugs at the heartstrings; a beautiful brick and flint property with pretty gable windows overlooking the open village green, set high in the Chilterns. A tile above the fireplace shows the date it was built, and the wheel in the garden is an original from the workshop, uncovered by the builders when the property was extended 8 years ago.

An enclosed porch with a stable door opens into the fabulous sitting room, measuring a generous 24'9 x 22'2. Oak floorboards complement the original exposed beams, and a fireplace with a wood burner adds warmth and an attractive focal point to the room.

The house has a particularly serene and uplifting atmosphere, with natural light and open views. Leading off is another separate and cosy living space with a fireplace and two windows - ideal as a peaceful snug or home workspace. At the rear is the hub of this very special home, a superb open-plan kitchen/dining/living space. This room has been thoughtfully reimagined, adding a contemporary twist to the existing charm of the building. The floors are oak with underfloor heating, and a vaulted ceiling adds volume and light, and bi-fold doors link the inside to the outside. The kitchen unit is from Bulthaup and is crafted from one single piece of steel, containing a Gaggenau hob, Miele dishwasher, sink, bins and storage.

A separate utility offers a practical space for busy family life, and a useful, modern shower room has been added.

On the first floor, an elegant, light, and spacious landing leads to four gorgeous bedrooms. There are three good-sized doubles, with the principal room featuring a large built-in wardrobe, and a fourth large single room/small double completes the sleeping accommodation. There is also a contemporary family bathroom, with a modern white suite and finished with white metro-style tiles.

The property overlooks the village green of the gorgeous, unspoiled village of Northend. Open skies create a great feeling of spaciousness, and the house has quintessential appeal, with a chocolate box frontage in brick and flint.

At the rear, the garden is a private and enclosed sanctuary, with a large, landscaped shingle seating area interspersed with mature shrubs and borders. Beyond lies a well-kept lawn with mature trees and an area of raised planters.

The property also benefits from a double-length garage/workshop with excellent storage and parking for at least two cars in front. In additional there is access to a large loft providing substantial storage.
