An enchanting cottage, sitting on a quite wonderful plot in this highly sought after South Bucks village. Coming to the market for the first time in sixty years and offered for sale with vacant possession, we fully expect this wonderful property to attract significant interest.

A wealth of character throughout, including exposed beams, timbers, latch doors etc..and outside, the most wonderful gardens you'd expect to see. A double garage with a shingle driveway complete the picture. 'Rare to the market' is an over used term, frequently used by agents with a rather limited vocabulary. I can confidently claim, Glebe Cottage to be 'Rare to the market'.

Location.
Located in a sought-after close in this hugely popular village, the property enjoys easy access to numerous country walks through open fields and woodland. The Post Office, schools, doctors' surgeries and sports/leisure centre are all nearby. Great Missenden (1.2 mile distant) offers specialised shopping, a main line station to London Marylebone (approximately 45 minutes ) and an 18-court tennis club. The area benefits from a wealth of popular pubs, restaurants, farm shops and highly regarded private and state schools such as the popular Prestwood Infant School on Moat Lane. The property is within catchment for the local grammar schools. Details may be obtained from the local authority.
