Delightful riverside cottage with an abundance of character.
Description
A lovely attached period cottage, with original parts believed to date back to the late 18th century, in a delightful riverside setting tucked away within a conservation area. This three bedroom property has an abundance of character with exposed beams to all rooms, fireplaces and cottage latch doors. The house is set behind gates with picturesque but low maintenance gardens on the bank of the pretty River Wye.
The cottage has a choice of entrances inside with a front door and porch opening into the dining room or a side door adjacent to the river leading into the entrance hall. Entering from the side the entrance hall has a quarry tiled floor, a deep storage cupboard, further under stairs storage, and a cloakroom in a white suite lies adjacent. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units with ample work surface areas. Integrated appliances include a double oven and a gas hob with extractor over. The dining room and sitting room are both charming heavily beamed rooms with views over the riverside garden. The dining room has a door to the garden, the sitting room has a feature fireplace with display and storage cupboards to one side and a smaller storage cupboard to the other.
On the first floor, there are two double bedrooms overlooking the garden both have exposed and varnished floorboards, beams to the ceiling, one has a small storage cupboard. The third bedroom has a side and rear aspect and is also heavily beamed. The bathroom is fitted in a white suite with a shower over the bath and tiled and panelled walls.
Outside
The property is approached from a village lane. On the left before reaching the cottage there is a parking area for two/three cars and a double length garage/workshop which is owned by The Laurels. The entrance to the house itself is a short distance down on the right and the southerly facing riverside garden lies behind wrought iron gates to the front of the cottage. The garden is terraced and has a fine Magnolia and Palm tree as well as a host of shrubs and climbers including Clematis, Bamboo and Laurel. There is a raised deck area adjacent to the river ideal for an evening drink and a timber store. A paved path leads down the side of the house next to the river leading to the side door.
Location
Wooburn Green 0.4 miles, M40 (J3 to London) 1.5 miles, Beaconsfield 2.5 miles, Bourne End 2.1 miles, High Wycombe 5 miles, M4 (J8/9) 6.7 miles, Heathrow (J5) 18 miles, central London 27 miles. All distances are approximate.
The property occupies a delightful tucked away location in a conservation area on the banks of the River Wye. The area is popular with commuters as communication links in the area are excellent. There is a mainline train service which runs to London Marylebone from Beaconsfield and High Wycombe. There are also rail connections to London Paddington from Bourne End via Maidenhead. The area will also benefit from Crossrail which is due for completion in the new few years, giving direct and fast journey times to London’s West End, City and Canary Wharf. The M40 is accessible from Beaconsfield (J2) and Loudwater (J3). The A404 Marlow bypass enables access to the M4 (J8/9).
Everyday amenities can be found at Wooburn Green and Bourne End whilst more comprehensive facilities are available in Beaconsfield and High Wycombe. Sporting facilities in the area are good with sailing at the Upper Thames Sailing Club next to Bourne End Marina and golf clubs in both Flackwell Heath and Hedsor and a David Lloyd gym in Wooburn Green.

Private schools include Godstowe, The Beacon, High March, Caldicott, Davenies and Wycombe Abbey to name a few.
