Features and description
LOCATED ON THE EDGE OF THE VILLAGE AND ENJOYING SOME OF THE FINEST VIEWS IN THE COUNTY, AN UNLISTED PERIOD COTTAGE WITH GARDENS AND PADDOCKS OF 2.5 ACRES.
THE PROPERTY
Set in a private and elevated location with views for several miles over open countryside, a rare opportunity to acquire a unique combination of family home with gardens and paddocks of 2.5 acres.
Pleasantly screened from the road with a private drive, the cottage stands prominently with front and rear gardens and includes a heated pool, double garage with home office, three workshops/stores and recreational and pony paddocks.
Hillfoot Cottage is not listed and offers scope to extend to a more substantial home if required.
The accommodation comprises hall, sitting room, dining room, conservatory, farmhouse kitchen, utility and cloakroom. To the first floor there are four double bedrooms which can be arranged as three plus a study with a family bath and shower room.
The property is set off the edge of Pulloxhill being a short drive to the Georgian market town of Ampthill with its Waitrose supermarket and, for commuters, mainline stations at Flitwick, Harlington (St Pancras/Thameslink), Hitchin (Euston) with Junction 12 of the M1 just five miles away.
A viewing is recommended to appreciate the lifestyle opportunity on offer at Hillfoot Cottage.
ACCOMMODATION
The Cottage is entered via a solid wood door and leads into a good size reception hall where stairs rise to the first floor and a cloakroom has a suite of a wash basin and wc.
Lying to the left, a characterful sitting room has exposed beams, double and glazed doors to the front and a fine inglenook fireplace and hearth.
Beyond the sitting room a double glazed conservatory has been added and has ceramic tiled flooring with a door leading to the rear garden.
To the right of the hall, the dual aspect dining or family room features an original inglenook fireplace with an inset log burning stove. This room connects to the farmhouse kitchen which is fitted with a comprehensive range of base and wall unit including a larder-style cupboard with wicker baskets and plate rack. Completing the farmhouse feel there is a butler sink unit, granite work tops and ceramic tiled splash backs. Appliances include a built-in dishwasher and electric cooker with extractor over.
Adjacent to the kitchen, a utility room has space for a washing machine, tumble dryer, fridge freezer and houses the oil boiler which serves the hot water and central heating.
FIRST FLOOR
All the bedrooms and bathroom radiate from the landing which has double cupboard and access to the loft.
The principal bedroom is dual aspect and has a range of built-in wardrobes and walk-in cupboard to one wall.
Bedroom two and three are both dual aspect enjoying the open views with the second having a built-in wardrobe.
The fourth bedroom or study also benefits from the view and has a fitted desk unit and bookcases.
Completing the accommodation, a family bathroom comprises a white period-style suite of a bath with built-in shower over, a wash hand basin, wc, heated towel rail and an airing cupboard housing the hot water cylinder.
OUTSIDE
The cottage is approached via a private drive which leads to a further good size parking area for eight to ten vehicles. There is an ‘L’ shaped range of buildings which includes a double garage and an attached home office, both with power and light, and a timber barn offering two workshops/stores and an open fronted wood/tool store.
Lying to the front, a gas heated swimming pool takes advantage of the views and is bordered by a private lawned garden area with assorted trees, planted borders and a paved patio seating area with a pergola.
The rear garden is also private and has lawns, vegetable patch and mature trees leading to the upper paddocks which are fenced and hedged.
LOCATION

The village is just 40 minutes by train to London and is within easy access of the M1 Motorway and a short drive to Milton Keynes which boasts a superb shopping centre, cinemas, theatre and many other recreational facilities.
