4 bed cottage for sale

Great Kingshill, Buckinghamshire HP15

A quite exquisite Grade II Listed cottage set in six acres of beautiful private gardens and grounds.

This enchanting cottage dates in origin from the late 17th and early 18th Century, having been sympathetically added to over the years, now creating very versatile accommodation. This really is a simply wonderful and much-loved family home, which is just the perfect environment for a growing family.

The front door opens into a generous reception hall where you are immediately struck by the beauty of the exposed timbers and uncharacteristically good ceiling heights. The kitchen is well appointed and equipped, leading through to a lovely double aspect family room with doors opening out to the garden. The well-proportioned dining room has a lovely inglenook fireplace with a wood burning stove. The comfortable sitting room leads through to the study and a ground floor bedroom with adjoining shower room.

There are two staircases to the first floor, where the principal bedroom suite has a dressing area and ensuite bathroom. There are two further bedrooms on this floor, together with a dressing room and family bathroom.

The studio is a wonderfully light space, making a marvelous home office or art studio, it does however have all the required services to create a completely self-contained annexe with its own private paved garden.
