Chearsley, Buckinghamshire, HP18

Manor Cottage is beautifully updated Edwardian cottage which combines period charm with contemporary comfort. Offering thoughtfully extended living space, stunning countryside views, and a particularly well-designed home office/studio, this home is ideal for those seeking a tranquil yet practical lifestyle.

The hallway provides an immediate sense of space and light. The dual-aspect sitting room is warm and inviting, featuring engineered oak flooring, a charming wood-burning stove, and French doors opening onto a cottage-style patio garden.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the kitchen/dining room. Stylishly appointed, it boasts an extensive range of fitted units in a soft, contemporary palette, topped with quartz work surfaces and complemented by high-spec integrated appliances, including double ovens, full-size fridge freezer, induction hob, dishwasher, and sunken sink. An integrated sound system adds to the ambience. Bifold doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces, perfect for entertaining. A large utility room, with additional storage, integrated laundry appliances, and cloakroom facilities, completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms. The principal bedroom, with built-in wardrobes and a decorative fireplace, enjoys views across the garden and into the village, with plenty of natural light. The second double bedroom also features a period fireplace and offers far-reaching countryside views. The third, smaller bedroom offers charm and includes built-in storage. A well-appointed family bathroom serves the bedrooms, complete with bath and overhead power shower.

To house is accessed via a private lane and benefits from driveway parking. To the front there is a hard-landscaped garden with raised beds stocked with roses and a fig tree. To the other side there is a larger garden mainly laid to lawn with borders of irises, lupins, and peonies. There are several mature trees including a magnolia and apple trees and a central stone terrace ideal for outdoor dining. A garden shed, secure fencing, and stone stepping path completes this well-considered outside space.

Tucked discreetly at the rear of the garden is a purpose-built home office/studio, installed just 18 months ago by award winning Green Retreats. This offers fully independent connectivity with its own Wi-Fi, electricity, and heating. Double doors flood the space with light, creating a serene and productive working environment year-round.
