Summary

The Property

This beautifully presented period cottage has well planned accommodation over two main floors with the addition of a useful loft room.

There are two well-proportioned reception rooms on the ground floor, interconnecting, with the sitting room at the front and the dining room at the rear and leading to a well-appointed dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room with a door to the garden.

On the first floor is a comfortable double bedroom at the front and a small second bedroom to the rear, currently used as a home office, while offering scope for use as a cot room or dressing room.

There is a bathroom with a separate roll-top bath and a walk-in shower cubicle, and then from the landing a ladder provides access to a useful loft room.

It benefits from two large skylights with blackout blinds to the rear elevation, eaves storage to the front and rear, and a storage cupboard to one side. Currently used as a further reception space and for storage it would make an ideal occasional bedroom or home office.

Throughout this lovely house combines many attractive period features with well-considered neutral décor to great effect.

Outside

To the front, the cottage sits behind a pretty, brick façade with a town house style garden fronted by a low brick-built boundary wall and a footpath that leads to the front door.

With access from the kitchen to the rear is a beautifully presented hard landscaped courtyard style garden with a feature block paved terrace surrounded by borders laid to pea shingle. There are fenced and brick-built boundaries, some small trees and other planting, a garden shed, and a gate providing rear access. A lovely feature of the house, it provides a pretty back drop and the ideal place for al fresco dining and entertaining.

Location

In the heart of the conservation area in a sought-after private cul-de-sac of similar properties. Within easy reach of the City centre, mainline station, well regarded local schools, extensive local amenities and the parks at Bernard’s Heath, Victoria, The Brickie and Verulamium.
