The property has gone through a sympathetic renovation by the current owners while maintaining the historical features. The ground floor consists of a porch, three original beamed reception rooms, a sitting room with a large open fireplace with a log burner, a dining room with exposed brick and timber, and a study. The living room leads to a stunning kitchen/breakfast room with a newly fitted kitchen, a delightful family room with a log burner, double doors to the garden, as well as a door leading to the wet room and main bedroom.

The first floor is divided into two sections, offering flexibility. The largest of the four bedrooms would work well as a main bedroom or guest space. The other three bedrooms are accessed from the original cottage, with pitched ceilings and beams. The family bathroom is also in the original house.

Externally Orchard Cottage is on a no-through road and is set back within its plot with a sweeping drive leading to a parking area for several vehicles and a recently built triple garage. The thatch was replaced in 2021. The annex has excellent self-contained accommodation, which includes a modern living/bedroom, kitchenette, and shower room. The mature garden is mainly laid to lawn with several fine trees and offers views over open farmland, and in all, it extends to approx 0.6 of an acre.


Henton is a pretty and quiet hamlet enjoying beautiful views of the surrounding countryside and the nearby Chiltern Hills. There is a network of footpaths and bridleways, including The Ridgeway and the Phoenix Trail, The Peacock Country Inn is a short walk away. The location is particularly convenient for the commuter with junction 6 M40 (5 miles) and the nearby station of Princes Risborough (3.5 miles), which provides a regular service into London Marylebone (fast train approx 40 mins). Nearby Chinnor also offers a good range of shops, two Primary Schools, two Doctors' surgeries and a library. Private schooling is available in Princes Risborough (St Teresa's), Gt Missenden (The Gateway), and Dorton (Ashfold). There are more facilities in the market town of Thame (6 miles) and Oxford (20 miles). All distances and times are approximate.
