A beautiful mid-terrace period cottage nestling an enviable position with delightful views across Chorleywood Common. This attractive two-bedroom home is ideally located within walking distance of the village centre, railway station and popular local schools, with excellent transport links nearby.
Thoughtfully arranged to make the most of the available space, the property combines period charm with practical living space for a single person, couple or those looking to downsize.
The front door opens into a cosy reception room, featuring a striking antique fireplace (decorative, for ethanol flame use only). Bespoke painted storage cupboards sit to either side, while cleverly designed doors conceal the television above the fireplace when not in use.
The fitted kitchen offers a range of wall and base units, a freestanding stainless steel gas cooker and tiled flooring. A useful adjoining lobby provides a dedicated laundry area, with space and plumbing for a washing machine, together with a worktop and overhead storage and side door to the garden.
The ground floor bathroom is fitted with a white suite, with a shower over the bath and partly tiled walls.
Carpeted stairs lead to the first floor, where there are two double bedrooms. The principal bedroom offers outstanding views across Chorleywood Common, while the second bedroom overlooks the rear garden and benefits from a built-in cupboard. Loft access leads to a fully boarded loft, which also houses the combination boiler.
To the rear, the garden provides a private decked patio area, lawn and well-stocked flower beds with attractive cottage planting. A summerhouse with power, is an ideal a garden office, hobby room or additional storage. A shared right of way runs along a pathway from the rear garden towards the front of the property. Parking is on the street outside.
