Nestled in half-acre grounds in the heart of Ashley Green, this enchanting Grade II Listed residence has many original features and a self-contained, detached Victorian annexe perfect for family/guests or as an Airbnb, and it is located close to highly regarded Grammar Schools.
Nestled within half an acre of lush, secluded grounds lies Ashley Cottage. This quite enchanting residence is found in the heart of Ashley Green, a village just beyond Berkhamsted and within Buckinghamshire's grammar school catchment area. This charming property, centrally positioned in the village, boasts rustic wooden beams and floors, inviting original fireplaces and fantastic entertaining areas. Adding to its allure is a self-contained one-bedroom Victorian barn annexe, ideal for hosting guests, operating a B&B, or accommodating a relative seeking their own quarters. The cottage maintains utmost privacy, its presence discreetly shielded by mature trees and foliage. A spacious gravel driveway, capable of accommodating numerous vehicles, provides ample parking. Despite its seclusion, this delightful residence remains firmly rooted in the vibrant village community.
The ground floor's expansive reception areas—a generous living room, a kitchen-linked dining room, and a generous study—offer versatile spaces suitable for relaxing with your family or entertaining friends. The farmhouse-style kitchen, complete with an Aga cooker and separate gas cooker is complemented by a pantry, utility room, lobby, and a convenient downstairs cloakroom. The first floor has four generously sized bedrooms, one with an en-suite bathroom, and a family bathroom with a roll-top bath, all accentuating the property's historical charm. The second floor boasts two attic spaces, offering additional storage, or potential for further customisation.
Accessed via double doors from the dining room, the outdoor dining space opens onto a beautifully maintained garden, offering large areas of lawns and secluded patios, shielded by an expertly crafted hedge and established trees. Situated within the cottage's grounds, the detached barn annexe features a double bedroom, a spacious kitchen/dining/seating area which is packed with character. This space is perfect for guests, as a home office or as an Airbnb. Two additional outbuildings currently serve as a gym, workshop, and storage space
