High Street, Cookham, Maidenhead, Berkshire, SL6

A pretty two-bedroom terraced cottage with original features, a garden studio and landscaped garden. Perfectly positioned in the centre of historic Cookham Village.

Description

With its central position in the heart of Cookham, there are many shops and services in the immediate area, just a short walk leads to the open green spaces of Cookham Moor and the Cookham Commons, protected areas of natural beauty.

The cottage is Victorian and converted from a former shop, with many original features remaining including the large front window, a former shop sign bracket, brick detailing and exposed beams. The interiors have been modernised and are mostly whitewashed, making the home easy to personalise by the new owner. The kitchen is a particular highlight and is very modern, with sleek cabinetry, a Rangemaster range cooker and stone-tiled floors, while the adjoining sitting room is 21ft long and has space for both a sitting area in front of the wood-burning stove and a dining area by the French windows leading out to the garden. Upstairs there are two good-size double bedrooms with built-in storage. The smaller bedroom to the rear is en suite while the principal bedroom, at the front of the house, has an adjacent bathroom which has been renovated.

The Boutique is situated directly on Cookham’s delightful High Street, with excellent access to the village’s array of shops and restaurants, as well as the station just over half a mile away. On-street parking is available locally.

The rear garden is tucked away and feels very private: walls and wooden panel fencing enclose a lawn, a lovely terrace for garden furniture, mature borders and a garden shed. At the rear there is a detached garden studio with glazed doors along the front. It has light, power and water, providing a useful utility area for laundry machines, and would make a fantastic home office, gym or additional living space.
