Description
Occupying a generous plot in an idyllic setting in the heart of the village, this delightful Grade II listed cottage is now in need of modernisation but offers great scope and provides an exciting project for the new owner. Thought to date back to the 16th century with later additions, the cottage benefits from a large garden wrapping around the property incorporating an ample driveway for off street parking.
The accommodation is full of character, original beams and other period features. The front door opens into a charming sitting room with a stunning inglenook fireplace and bread oven with the addition of a wood burning stove. The adjacent dining room leads through to a bedroom with a utility area and en suite wet room, and in addition is a kitchen, bathroom and conservatory.
On the first floor are three characterful bedrooms, all of good size.
The rear garden is a real oasis, well-enclosed with fencing, mature shrubs and trees to the sides and rear. The planting creates a tranquil backdrop to the house with areas of lawn alongside lush and overflowing flowerbeds and meandering pathways. An outbuilding nestles in the far corner and two additional sheds provide further storage.
Location
The property is situated in a Conservation Area being within a few hundred yards of the village centre and pond, The Common, the local pubs, schools and churches within Penn.
Conveniently located for the countryside of The Chilterns, the property is well placed for commuting to central London from Beaconsfield and High Wycombe train stations, both a few miles distant.
