As you enter the property, the front door opens out onto a large lounge, with wood flooring, an open gas simulated coal fire, very cosy for chilly evenings in! There is a comfortable sofa which will convert to a large single bed. The property also benefits from a modern bathroom, with heated towel rail and bathtub with hand shower.
Off the lounge is a fully fitted, character oak kitchen, with a butler sink, new range cooker, fridge/freezer, microwave, washer/dryer and dishwasher. The kitchen leads into a charming garden room with a farmhouse table and chairs looking onto the 85 foot long enclosed cottage garden with patio area.
The first floor has a large double bedroom, twin bedroom with two beds, and landing area.
The cottage has parking directly outside on the quiet lane. It is a one-minute walk to the village shop, which has daily fresh bread, pastries, Lotto, dry cleaning, cash machine and a post office. There are two pubs in the village - again a minutes walk, both serve excellent food, beer and wines. There is a picturesque village pond, the stocks beside it are an ancient monument.
Just around the corner is a children's playground and a 5 minute walk through the village takes you to Aldbury's recreation ground, where you will see deer grazing on the hills below Ashridge Forest. Whipsnade Zoo is a twenty minute car journey away- a great family day out! Half a mile away from the village centre is Stocks golf course.
Enjoy seeing Walter Swinburn's string of racehorses taking their morning exercise through the village each day (stables situated next to the church in Aldbury)
