An extremely attractive, sixteenth century Grade II listed country cottage of immense character, set within an idyllic village, which is close to Berkhamsted and surrounded by exquisite open countryside, all of which is designated as being an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The appeal of this property becomes immediately apparent on entry. All rooms are bright and airy with high ceilings and a wealth of impressive beams and timbers. The double aspect sitting room has an amazing fireplace with a solid fuel stove as its main focal point, which has a display mantle and a magnificent beam above.

Directly adjacent to the sitting room is an impressive hand crafted and well equipped kitchen which is very functional and respectful of the character of the property. This includes an integrated electric oven with a ceramic hob and canopy above. There is a dishwasher, space for an upright fridge freezer and most importantly a wine/champagne rack. Next to the kitchen and under the stairs there is a utility cupboard and a further shoe cupboard.

The first floor is nothing short of being spectacular, including two double bedrooms, landing and bathroom.

All rooms from the house have attractive multi pane windows and latch doors with traditional ironmongery.

There is a small well planted garden area at the front and an attractive courtyard style garden to the rear which is ideal for entertaining and currently set up to provide dining and relaxation areas.

The property is situated in the heart of Great Gaddesden, which is within easy reach of Potten End and Berkhamsted. The village has a Primary School, which is rated as Good by Ofsted, a church which has regular social activities, including a walking group and coffee mornings and the school has annual fete in the summer. There are also some very good foody pubs nearby, that are walkable from the property.
