4 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

Chiltern Cottage is 400 years old and was originally a wheelwright's workshop. It is 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 spacious sitting room that has a fireplace with a wood burner adding warmth and an attractive focal point. There are oak floorboards throughout the ground floor, complementing the original exposed beams.

A separate and cosy living space is accessed from the sitting room and has a fireplace, an ideal space to use as a snug or home workspace. At the rear is a superb open-plan kitchen/dining/living space. This room has been thoughtfully reimagined, adding a contemporary feel to the house. The floors are oak with underfloor heating, and a vaulted ceiling adds a sense of space and light, with bi-fold doors opening out to the rear terrace. 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.

There is a separate utility with a selection of storage, a sink and access to a useful downstairs shower room.

The first floor's elegant, light, and spacious landing leads to four bedrooms. The principal bedroom has large built-in wardrobes. There are two more double bedrooms and a fourth large single room/small double. A contemporary family bathroom with delightful white tiles, bath and basin completes the first-floor accommodation.

The property overlooks the village green of the unspoilt village of Northend. The house has quintessential appeal, with a chocolate box frontage in brick and flint. There is parking for two cars and access to the garage.

To the rear of the property is a private and enclosed garden with a great sense of privacy, a wonderful haven of peace and tranquility. A large, landscaped shingle area with a selection mature shrubs and borders provides a lovely seating area. Beyond lies a lawn with mature trees and an area of raised planters.
