Description

A Grade II listed four bedroom thatched cottage, a garage, and over 0.20 acres of gardens, set next to the church and overlooking Beacon Hill in the hamlet of Ellesborough. Originally part of the Chequers Estate, the cottage has over 1,300 sq. ft. of accommodation over three floors. The oldest part dates from the 17th century and extended in 1979. The thatch will need replacing within the next 2 years and the septic tank is a non-compliant system which will also need replacing by the buyers – the guide price of the property has been reduced to take account of these works.
The front door leads to a hall on the original ground floor with stairs to the first floor and 1979 ground floor. The hall has access to a beamed sitting room with herringbone wood flooring, an Inglenook fireplace with a log burning stove, and doors to a staircase up to bedroom three and the principal bedroom. The sitting room has windows to the front and natural light from a borrowed light window to the L-shaped snug which has terracotta tiled flooring, a deep shelved cupboard, and a door to a private patio at the rear. Off the snug, there is a modern three piece shower room.

Newer Ground Floor

The stairs from the hall lead to a dual aspect dining room with a herringbone wood floor, an exposed brick wall, and a walk-in cupboard. The kitchen is fitted with a range of Shaker style units, including glazed display cabinets, with wood work surfaces incorporating a butler sink. There is an induction oven and a window to the side. The adjoining utility room has terracotta floor tiles, and space for a fridge, washing machine, tumbler dryer and freezer. There is a door into the garden, with steps leading down to a paved seating area.

First Floor

On the first floor there are four bedrooms. The principal bedroom is at the rear of the property and has built-in wardrobes. Bedroom three, at the front of the property, is currently used as an office and has original elm floorboards and a built-in cupboard. A door from the principal bedroom leads to a landing with a three piece family bathroom, and steps down to the two remaining bedrooms in the newer section of the property. There is a hatch here with access to a part boarded loft.

Outside

The front garden is bounded by a picket fence and hedging with a brick path to the front door. The rear garden is enclosed and landscaped, with lawn, and established shrubs and flower borders. There are three separate seating areas -one accessed from the snug, one by the utility room and a circular area retained by sleepers. The garden slopes down to raised beds, a greenhouse, and a summerhouse. The property has a right of access over the driveway to a timber built garage which can also be accessed from the garden.

Situation and Schooling

Ellesborough is a village at the foot of the Chiltern Hills and in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It has a church and the nearby village of Butlers Cross has a public house, a village hall, a play park and a golf course. The property is close to a choice of footpaths and bridleways, including the renowned Ridgeway National Trail. The property lies between the market towns of Princes Risborough (3.3 miles) and Wendover (2.5 miles) both of which have shops, restaurants, dentists, doctors, and tennis clubs. For the commuter, railways stations are at Wendover (2.2 miles), Princes Risborough (3.9 miles) and Little Kimble (0.9miles). The property is in catchment for Great Kimble Primary School, John Colet secondary school and grammar schools in Aylesbury.
