Terraced house for sale in Church Street, Chesham HP5

Believed to date from the late 18th/early 19th century, 116 Church Street is a delightful chequered, red and grey brick fronted cottage. Retaining many period features, such as the sash windows and hipped Welsh slate roof, the property has been sympathetically updated and modernised to work in the 21st century. Entry is through the pilastered front door into the entrance hall with the sitting room on the left with sash windows to the front and fireplace.

Behind the sitting room are the stairs, the cloakroom and beyond that the dining room, again with fireplace and polished oak floorboards. The kitchen follows on from the dining room and is fitted with a comprehensive range of clean white kitchen units, the usual integrated appliances and a free-standing, gas, range cooker plus a breakfast bar for casual dining. Windows along the side flood the kitchen with natural light and the back door leads out onto the patio and garden beyond.

The staircase leads up to the landing with the master bedroom and two further bedrooms. The family bathroom has been newly refitted with a white suite comprising of bath, separate shower cubicle, W.C. And basin with contemporary subway-tiled walls. A further staircase leads up to a loft room which would make an ideal den or children's bedroom having an up and down roofline with beams and angles and a window overlooking the rooves and street scene below.

Outside, access to the back garden is via a timber gate within the "central elliptically arched carriageway" which is gated at both ends and provides useful storage for bikes etc. The level gardens are enclosed on two sides and comprise a patio area, a lawned area, an arbour and some beds with mature shrubs. At the far end of the garden flows the River Chess (about a metre below the garden) which forms the end boundary.

A real bonus with this property is the additional garden room ideal for an office, gym or a children's playroom.
