Property Insight:

This charming semi-detached Victorian cottage has both character and a contemporary interior, offering a wonderful home in the heart of the popular village of Lower Stondon.

As you step inside, the cottage immediately feels warm and inviting. Wooden flooring and a neutral colour palette enhance the sense of space and light throughout. The cosy yet contemporary sitting room is an ideal spot to unwind after a busy day or enjoy time with family and friends. Dual-aspect windows fill the room with natural light, adding to its welcoming atmosphere.

The modern kitchen flows seamlessly from the sitting room and features white Shaker-style cabinetry with contrasting granite-effect worktops and white subway-tiled splashbacks. Integrated appliances include an electric oven and induction hob with a sleek black extractor hood, an integrated fridge freezer plus space for a dishwasher. Bright and well-planned, the kitchen offers plenty of storage and a perfect space for creating homecooked meals.

To the rear of the property, a practical lobby, with space for a washing machine in the cupboard, provides access to the garden and leads to the bathroom. The bathroom continues the modern theme with a white suite, including a full-length bath with shower over, complemented by white wall tiles and painted wood panelling.  Upstairs are two well-proportioned double bedrooms – each a good size and light and airy, providing the perfect zone for relaxing.

Outside, the property benefits from a long rear garden, mainly laid to lawn with paved and shingled areas – perfect for summer entertaining or for children to play. A large shed at the end of the garden offers excellent storage. To the front, there is a paved garden and two allocated parking spaces conveniently located beside the house.
