Pretty character cottage with immense charm and off-street parking
Description
This charming cottage, believed to date back to the 1860s, is full of character and beautifully presented, offering a wonderful blend of period charm and modern comfort throughout.
A welcoming porch leads into the attractive sitting room, where a lovely open fireplace creates a cosy focal point. From here, a door opens into the dining room, which also features an inviting fireplace with wood burner and a brick surround. The bright, double-aspect kitchen is well equipped with an excellent range of fitted wall and base units, along with a hob, oven, dishwasher and fridge. A door from the kitchen opens out onto the courtyard garden.
Upstairs, there are two delightful bedrooms, the second having fitted wardrobes and a well-appointed bathroom.
Outside
To the front of the property is a gravelled driveway providing off-street parking.
The pretty courtyard garden is a perfect spot for summer entertaining, and there is also a very useful outbuilding with built-in heating, storage, light and power - currently being used as a home office but equally suitable as a home gym, studio or additional reception room.

The property enjoys an enviable location within reach of both Rickmansworth and Northwood town centres. Both towns offer Metropolitan Line underground railway stations Northwood Station 1.8 miles and Moor Park 1.6 miles (distances approx.), comprehensive shopping and an excellent choice of restaurants and cafes.
