Cranfield Road, Moulsoe, Newport Pagnell

The former village post office, this Grade II listed detached property has origins in the 16th century with later additions. The property is predominantly timber framed under a tile and thatch roof and stands on a generous plot of land. Within the curtilage of the property and detached from the main building is a timber clad annex which could perhaps house a relative or become a source of income either as a permanent let or an Air B & B opportunity. The current owners have involved the latter option and income figures are available on request.

Property Walk Through - Bretigny Cottage exudes character and charm throughout having retained many features from its origins in the 16th Century. The abundance of notable features retained include inglenook fireplaces, exposed wall timbers and ceiling beams. The dining room is quite amazing with its high vaulted ceiling exposing its many roof trusses and vertical timbers within the walls. The kitchen/breakfast room also has a vaulted ceiling with exposed woodwork. The kitchen furniture is in oak with a deep butler sink and there is space for a range style cooker housed within the remnants of a former fireplace. The sitting room and family room lie adjacent to each other both containing magnificent inglenook fireplaces, one having a wood burning stove. The playroom has underfloor heating and a utility room and four piece bathroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
On the first floor there are four bedrooms gaining access from two separate staircases. Built in wardrobes feature in two of the bedrooms. A shower room is also in situ. A study or storage room is located on the second floor.

External Description - A gravel drive affording parking for several vehicles leads to a double car port under a tiled pitched roof which has been constructed in sympathy with the rooflines of the cottage.
