3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Burton Lane, Monks Risborough HP27

A Grade II listed, thatched cottage with three double bedrooms, situated within the conservation area of Monks Risborough. The property has undergone a comprehensive programme of renovation and refurbishment, incorporating traditional and authentic materials including oak, lime plaster and breathable paint, while retaining many of its original features.

An attic conversion has created the third double bedroom and an additional bathroom. The property was completely re-thatched with water reed in 2023, and hetas-approved barrel-style wood-burning stoves have been installed in both the living and dining rooms.

The cottage combines modern amenities with character features including exposed beams, original internal doors and fireplaces. The original cobblestone pathway to the front door has been restored, while the gardens have been landscaped in a traditional cottage garden style.

The ground floor comprises two dual-aspect reception rooms, both featuring original terracotta tile and parquet flooring, together with a refitted three-piece bathroom with an electric shower over the bath. The kitchen is fitted with Shaker-style units and solid oak worktops incorporating a Belfast sink. Appliances include a Rangemaster gas oven, wine cooler, integrated dishwasher and washing machine, alongside a new Worcester Bosch boiler. There is also a useful walk-in pantry area.

Outside, the gardens have been designed with ease of maintenance in mind, with landscaped areas to both the front and rear connected by a loose-stone side path. The south-easterly facing rear garden has stocked beds with decorative edging and a built-in seating area. The plot is enclosed by a combination of picket fencing and a brick and flint wall.

The property is offered for sale with no upper chain.
