"Situated in an enviable location in this desirable hamlet close to Amersham and overlooking the village green and cricket pitch, this charming cottage is presented in fine decorative order, having been updated and extended in recent years to provide versatile and flexible accommodation. Approached through a picket gate, a storm porch shelters the front door, which leads into the entrance hall. To the left, the sitting room has an open fireplace with the original pretty Edwardian surround and a bay window. The kitchen, with an engineered hardwood floor, was custom built by John Lewis of Hungerford in 2015. It comprises painted solid wood units with granite surfaces, including an island unit with gas hob, an integrated oven, dishwasher, fridge freezer, washing machine and wine cooler. The brick fireplace has been transformed into a most attractive glass fronted cabinet with shelving. From the kitchen, the house has been extended to the rear to provide a family room with glazed double doors out to the terrace and garden. There is a cloakroom with wc and hand basin under the stairs. On the first floor, the master bedroom has views over the garden and an en suite shower room. A further double bedroom to the front of the house has an original open fireplace. There is a single bedroom and a further room suitable as a nursery or a study.
