4 bed detached house for sale

Little Hampden, Great Missenden, Buckinghamshire HP16

Cherry Tree Cottage is a very pretty, Grade II listed cottage believed to date back to the 15th/16th centuries. The property is approached from the lane into the hamlet down a driveway, leading to the garaging and parking beyond, which has gated access to the gardens and pathway to the front of the house. The accommodation is as in the floor plans, arranged over two floors. The ground floor is entered via a wide entrance hall, which, in turn, gives access to either the sitting room with inglenook fireplace or dining room, again with open fire, and French doors to the gardens. Beyond the sitting room is a nice size study which could be a fourth bedroom and benefits from an en suite shower room. The kitchen, pantry and rear porch complete the ground floor.

To the first floor there is the principal bedroom, two further bedrooms, a family bathroom and night cloakroom.

Gardens and Grounds:
The gardens are laid principally to lawn with numerous specimen trees, and bordered by hedging, and post and wire fencing. There is a nice, paved terrace to the rear of the property accessed via French doors from the dining room. In total the gardens extend to approximately 0.66 acres.

Little Hampden is also classed as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
