Quainton, BUCKINGHAMSHIRE

A delightful cottage tucked away in fabulous private grounds of 1.65 acres in this very pretty Buckinghamshire village.

Dating from the 17th Century this detached cottage in a lovely setting has so much to offer, although now in need of updating there is considerable potential to create a really special family home.

On the ground floor the lounge/dining room is a lovely room overlooking the garden, with a working inglenook fireplace at one end and a former inglenook with original bread oven at the other. There is a cosy snug with another open fireplace. The kitchen is fitted with a range of light oak units with granite work surfaces and a walk in larder. Off a pretty hallway lies the cloakroom and the conservatory.

There are two separate staircases up to the bedroom accommodation which is in two sections. One has two double bedrooms and a bathroom, whilst the other has two more double bedrooms, a bathroom and stairs up to a second floor with a study area and adjoining bedroom.

OUTSIDE
The cottage is tucked away up a lengthy driveway with plenty of parking and turning space, leading to a large double garage with an adjoining games room.

The property is set in an immediate plot of approximately a third of an acre with a lovely private well stocked and south facing rear garden.

Beyond the garden there is an orchard or potentially a paddock of just over 1.3 acres enclosed with mature boundaries providing all round privacy. There is a timber stable block with two loose boxes and a hay store.

SITUATION
The delightful village of Quainton is surrounded by open countryside and is known for the 190 year old windmill which sits proudly above the pretty village green and The George & Dragon pub, village shop and café.
