Upper Highway, Kings Langley, WD4

A very charming four bedroom Grade II Listed period cottage, believed to date back to the 18th Century. Many beautiful features have been retained and of particular note is the inglenook fire with bressamer beam, beamed ceilings and walls, brickwork and timber framed lattice windows all set beneath a clay-tile roof. Well screened from the main road, the cottage is approached via a short driveway which leads through the enclosed front cottage garden. The attractive entrance with its classic petite front door brings you into an entrance hall with tiled flooring, which immediately leads into the sitting room. With exposed moulded wooden beams that span the entire ceiling, inglenook fireplace and three leaded casement windows which offer views over the garden, this room is ideal for entertaining. The farmhouse-style eat-in-kitchen accessed from the hall has a range of base and wall units and plumbing for both washing machine and dishwasher. There is also a utility room from the kitchen and external door to side garden area. The kitchen and utility room sit in an extended part of the house. A separate dining room is located just off the kitchen with two front facing leaded casement windows overlooking the garden, exposed ceiling and central inglenook fireplace with inset wood burning stove. A doorway from the dining room under the stairs gives passage to the hall. The ground floor also includes a family bathroom, storage cupboard and separate fully tiled wet room. Ascending wooden risers, the first floor gives way to three double bedrooms and one single room. Two of the rooms are interconnecting and all rooms have built in storage.
