A quintessential English cottage, set within the picture perfect and highly sought after village of Turville.
Description
A charming and beautifully presented late 17th century Grade II listed cottage, constructed of timber frame with brick and flint infill beneath an old tile roof with eaves line dormers. In recent years, the accommodation has been thoughtfully improved and extended, allowing the cottage to retain all the charm of a traditional country home while incorporating the clever use of glass to provide contemporary-style living.
The cottage exudes character throughout, with features including vaulted ceilings, two open brick fireplaces with original brick and flint oven projections, leaded windows, exposed wall and ceiling timbers, and stripped floors.
Entering the dual aspect sitting room, the space is centred around an open brick fireplace with log burner and original feature bread oven, dating from when the cottage operated as a bakery. Within the front wall, a small low level window offers a fascinating reminder of the property’s history as the village post office.
The newly fitted Shaker style kitchen nestles at the heart of the house and is fitted with a range of wall and base units beneath granite worktops, along with a freestanding range cooker and built in Butler sink with mixer and boiling water taps. A stable door opens to the side garden, and stairs lead down to the cellar.
To the rear of the house is a wonderful double aspect dining/family room, featuring a striking double height glazed wall with French doors opening onto a raised terrace and garden, offering far reaching views across open fields to the iconic Chitty Chitty Bang Bang windmill. The room has a flagstone floor incorporating a floodlit circular glass feature revealing the original water well. A spiral wrought iron staircase leads to an impressive mezzanine style guest bedroom with vaulted ceiling, newly fitted ensuite shower room, and a large glazed window enjoying stunning countryside views towards the windmill.
In the older part of the house, accessed via a separate staircase, are two further bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly generous, with a feature vaulted ceiling, and is served by a newly fitted three piece bathroom suite.
Outside, a grass verge with established flowering borders lies to the front of Rose Cottage, alongside a stone path leading to a rambling, rose covered entrance porch and continuing along the side of the property, bordered by a well stocked raised flower bed. Outdoor dining can be enjoyed on the rear flagstone terrace, accessed from both the kitchen and dining/family room. From here, steps flanked by raised herbaceous borders lead up to a gently rising lawn, beyond which sits a wood clad outbuilding with tiled roof.
Clematis and wisteria covered pergolas rise through the garden to a sun deck at the top, providing a generous entertaining area with glorious views over the Turville Valley and the windmill beyond.
Location
Centrally located within the much sought after Chiltern village of Turville, the property enjoys an exceptional village setting.
Turville boasts an excellent public house, a well regarded village nursery school, and a historic church, renowned for its appearance in The Vicar of Dibley television series, along with a small equestrian and riding centre.
The village is surrounded by land owned by the Wormsley Estate and the Turville Court Estate, providing beautiful open countryside interlaced with footpaths and bridleways, offering miles of superb walking and riding opportunities.
The nearby towns of Henley on Thames and Marlow, along with convenient access to the M40 (Junction 5), are all close at hand. These, together with the wider regional centres of Oxford, High Wycombe and Reading, provide comprehensive shopping, educational and recreational facilities.
Regular rail services are available from High Wycombe to London Marylebone via the Chiltern Line.
The surrounding area is well served by a number of excellent golf courses and racecourses, as well as extensive boating and leisure facilities along the River Thames.
