**Description**
Idyllically positioned adjacent to some of the most breath - taking countryside
in Buckinghamshire, this pretty cottage with large gardens and gated driveway
is a hidden gem just waiting to be restored to its former glory. There is
plenty of scope to extend the cottage (subject to planning etc) to create a
sizeable family home in the future; currently, the accommodation comprises
entrance hall with flag - stone floor and stairs to the first floor. Doors open
to the living/dining room and office/snug which could be used as a third
bedroom. The spacious living/dining room enjoys the wonderful countryside view
with the Chiltern Hills and Church backdrop. A gas fire with back boiler sits
in the chimney where there once was a fireplace. A kitchen/breakfast room runs
across the rear and looks onto the pretty garden. The adjoining boot room has
a cleaner's sink and pantry and, being a convenient place to kick off muddy
boots, has become the natural entrance to the cottage. Upstairs drop - latch
doors open to the two bedrooms and a bathroom. The principal bedroom is
ideally positioned to make the most of the view of the church, while the back
bedroom has a lovely view of its own.
Outside there is a long driveway with a five - bar gate off Vicarage Road. A
pathway leads to the front door while the glorious gardens open up and wrap
around the side and rear providing a wonderful space to enjoy; perfect for the
green - fingered gardener as productive vegetable plots have been the pride and
joy in by - gone times, or children and dogs could run free enjoying the
wonderful space.
**Locatation**
Vicarage Road is regarded as one of the most desirable roads in the area,
having spectacular countryside running along one side and views of Pitstone
Windmill. This sought - after Buckinghamshire village, close to the borders of
Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire, is situated on the edge of the Chilterns,
surrounded by countryside, but with excellent road and rail links close by.
The village lies close to some 5, 000 acres of National Trust land, where
Pitstone Windmill and Ivinghoe Beacon can be found. Village facilities include
a recreation ground, general store, village hall and church and primary
school. Nearby towns offer a more comprehensive range of facilities, from the
boutiques and coffee shops in picturesque Tring and Berkhamsted, to the
shopping centres and department stores of Hemel Hempstead and Aylesbury, both
of which also boast multiplex cinemas and extensive leisure facilities. Tring
train station is a couple of miles away, providing a frequent service to
London Euston (approx 40 mins).
