Wicken Wood Cottage is nestled within the lovely quiet village of Wicken. Wicken is positioned between Buckingham and Milton Keynes and is home to a village church, Wicken sports and cricket club and the White Lion pub and restaurant.

When it comes to schools, Akeley Nursery and Primary school is just a stone's throw away; Ofsted Outstanding Akeley Wood Senior and Sixth form is then just a 10 minute drive away and Stowe school is a mere 20 minutes away. There is also a large variety of public and private schools in Milton Keynes, Buckingham and Northampton.
If the enticing exterior of the property wasn't enough to impress you, the charismatic features inside surely will! The property briefly comprises; entrance hall, utility room, sitting room with stunning Inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove, family room, newly fitted kitchen dining room, loft room that is currently being used as a cinema room and office & also as an additional bedroom when required. There is also an inner hallway from the entrance hall, leading to the newly fitted shower room and master bedroom. On the first floor you will find bedroom two with a four piece ensuite bathroom including a roll top bath and a walk in shower and bedroom three with newly fitted ensuite shower room.
Other benefits of this stunning home include a brand new boiler with hot water tank.
The well stocked south facing garden is completely private and will certainly be the envy of your friends and family when they gather for the inevitable barbecues and parties you are sure to have. There is a driveway providing off road parking for multiple vehicles and an oak built open garage with workshop and large wood store.
