If This Was Your Home…
Take a moment to admire Rose Cottage’s beautiful brick frontage, adorned with cascading wisteria. Stepping through your storm porch, you'll find yourself in your entrance hall with staircase ahead. It's immediately impressive, with charming exposed brick, timber trim and original feature brickwork on the stairs.
Turning to the right you'll come to your 165 square foot sitting room, with bay window to the front flooding the room with light. This is a serene and welcoming room, with an impressive fireplace and wooden mantel at the centre of a pale blue feature wall. Underfoot there's soft grey carpet.
Back through your entrance hall is your dining room, with another bay window and a further 160 square foot of floor space. Already you have another superb hosting spot. Timber beams overhead proudly display the building's history, while farmhouse style tiling lies underfoot. A perfect space for welcoming guests.
Your dining room seamlessly gives way to your kitchen, wrapping around your diner in an L shape, affording plenty of artfully zoned space to cook up a storm. Bright turquoise units provide a splash of colour, tempered by pale wood worktops and white tiled splashbacks. The one and a half sink sits under the window, and there's recessed lighting overhead.
Next is your gorgeously bright living room, where vaulted ceilings showcase the property's Chapel heritage. A trio of skylights in that angled ceiling let natural light flood in, and there's a total of 150 square foot of space. Warm wood floorboards lie underfoot, and aluminium framed French doors open on to your pretty courtyard.
The courtyard garden feels wonderfully secluded, with mature shrubs providing a profusion of greenery. It's a superb spot with a good size patio area for morning coffee, afternoon tea, and not forgetting a barbecue in the summer.
The first of your bathrooms completes the ground floor. This is no modest cloakroom, but a luxurious space with vaulted ceiling and stone tiled flooring. Featuring a rolltop bathtub, the room is filled with natural light from yet another bay window.
Back to your entrance hall, the stairs lead up to your first floor landing with its wonderful vaulted ceiling, elegantly presented original brickwork and a wealth of timber beams, once again speaking eloquently to the heritage of this one of a kind home.
The first of your three bedrooms gives you seventy five square foot of space, making it just right for all sorts of uses, from a good size bedroom to a nursery or even a walk in wardrobe.
Next to that is your fully tiled shower room, with corner cubicle shower, vanity sink and concealed cistern WC. This is a stylish modern space, contrasting agreeably with your classic bathroom below.
Your second bedroom sits at the other end of the landing, with 125 square foot of space making it a good sized double. Currently used as the main bedroom this is a beautiful and bright double bedroom with a large window and plenty of space for other bedroom furniture as well as the built in wardrobes.
Take the stairs up to the second floor and you'll find your spectacular bedroom. This fantastic space has close to 200 square foot to make into your own relaxing haven. You'll always enjoy waking up to the high vaulted ceiling, crisscrossed with exposed beams and trusses. There's eaves storage here too, always handy to help keep things neat. This room lends itself to all sorts of uses from principal bedroom to guest bedroom or perhaps even a study as well.
Your Local Area
Your new home sits in the conservation area of this beautiful Buckinghamshire village, ensuring the special character of the building and its surroundings are lovingly preserved. Stewkley dates back as far as the fifteenth century, and is known to have been visited by Geoffrey Chaucer, whose son lived here.
The house is on the longest village high street in the country. Stroll down High Street South for just under a mile and you'll find your friendly new local pub, The Carpenters Arms. If you just need a couple of essentials, there's a convenience store almost on your doorstep.
You're sure to enjoy the peacefulness you can only find in English villages like this one, nestled in the rolling countryside. And you're still just a ten minute drive from Leighton Buzzard, with regular trains to London Euston taking little more than half an hour.
