Description
The Old Postings is a delightful Grade II listed cottage brimming with charm and warmth located in the centre of the village of Grendon.
The Property
The cottage dates back to the mid-to-late-18th century and is built from limestone with a pantile roof. There are two reception rooms: One is generously sized with an inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove, while a sitting room next door also features a wood burning stove. Additionally, the property is centrally heated by gas to ensure a cosy living situation year round.
The cottage hosts a fitted kitchen with a stable door that leads to the tranquil back garden on one side and a utility space and downstairs toilet on the other. A spacious dining room that's perfect for hosting also features garden views.
There are three bedrooms upstairs plus a dressing room. The upstairs rooms share the cottage's main bathroom. The property also includes a loft space with integrated ladder for easy access.
The downstairs reception rooms and master bedroom all include window seats. There is a cupboard under the stairs for extra storage plus a sizable linen closet at the top of the stairs and additional cupboard space above that.
Exterior
The garden has both a paved area and a grass area with a high fence for peace and privacy. There is a brick outbuilding and also a micro summer house.
