Description
This charming ‘chocolate box’ style cottage enjoys a prime setting within the exclusive Abbotsbrook Estate, conveniently located only half a mile from Bourne End Marina and train station, with fast access to the A404(M) and Marlow. The property is believed to date back to the 11th century and retains its period charm due to a wealth of original features, including lead windows, exposed beams and original wood floors. Internally the terrace home has been thoughtfully renovated with elegant high-ceilinged rooms and tasteful décor that is sympathetic yet neutral, allowing for a new buyer to add their own personal stamp while honouring the character of the home.
The accommodation is accessed via a welcoming porch leading through to a well-sized sitting room and formal dining room with Oak herringbone flooring and French doors out to the rear patio. From here is a contemporary shower room and the handsome fully fitted kitchen complete with Falcon range cooker. On the first floor are three double bedrooms, all of which feature fitted wardrobes whilst one enjoys access to an en suite bathroom.
The property enjoys an idyllic waterside setting with a footbridge providing access to the front of the home and a paved courtyard flanked with bedding plants and hedging with ample space for outdoor seating. The rear garden is a particular feature comprising a neat lawn interspersed with a variety of shrubs and bedding plants with a patio for outdoor dining enclosed by mature trees affording a good degree of seclusion. There is also a summerhouse which is currently being utilised as an outdoor office.
