Property description

Dorsetts Cottage is a unique opportunity to acquire a detached period house enjoying panoramic views within the heart of Long Crendon village. Originally dating back to the XVII century and constructed of Wychert elevations, the cottage has been transformed, incorporating the adjoining property which dates back to the XIX century and in more recent years with the introductionof a modern conservatory/garden room. Internally the property has retained many original features including beams, doors and mainly timber windows, although surprisingly for a house of this period the ceilings heights are generous. Of particular note is the elegant sitting room, extending to 19' in length and benefiting from an open fireplace and high ceilings. This lovely room has a light double aspect and often flooded with natural light, creatinga wonderful outlook towards the formal gardens. Further accommodation to the ground floor includes an entrance hall, a cloakroom/utility, a dining room with a snug area and a traditional shaker style kitchen opening to a modern conservatory. To the first floor is a light and airy master bedroom with the most wonderful panoramic views over countryside. The master bedroom has a modern en-suite shower room. This floor has two further double bedrooms, a large family bathroom and a study area.Outside, the cottage has the most wonderful formal gardens extending in length to in excess of 100' and carefully maintained over the years by the cur- rent owners. The majority of the garden is laid to lawn with a number of flower and shrub borders and a terrace ideal for entertaining. At the bottom of the garden is a detached outbuilding providing a garage and a first floor room above, providing an ideal area for a self contained studio. Subject to planning this outbuilding provides scope to develop into furtheraccommodation. Ample off street parking with turning and a vegetable and fruit garden complete the wonderful outdoor space.This truly is a wonderful home, combining period living with spectacular gardens and views, all within a highly sought after village.
