Nestled in a charming Hertfordshire village, this two-bedroom character cottage presents an excellent opportunity for renovation and investment. The property is characterized by its spacious layout, offering significant potential for modernization. A private rear garden complements the home, while a detached garage provides additional storage or the possibility of conversion into a summer house or home office (subject to necessary planning).
Upon entering, you are greeted by a practical entrance porch that leads into an open-plan living and dining area. This room boasts exposed brick walls, timber beams, and a feature fireplace, lending it a distinctive character. The kitchen is notably generous for its type, featuring ample countertop space and storage options alongside a breakfast bar—ideal for future upgrades.
Upstairs, the landing connects to two well-proportioned double bedrooms that provide comfortable accommodations. A family bathroom equipped with a three-piece suite—WC, wash basin, and bath—offers functionality while allowing room for personal touches.
Outside, the front garden is set behind a retaining wall with footpath access; there is potential to convert this space into off-road parking (subject to necessary permissions). The rear garden primarily consists of lawn and is framed by fencing and brick walls. A convenient door leads from the garden to the garage, which could serve as either extra storage or be transformed for alternative uses like a workshop or creative space.
The property's location is one of its standout features. Situated on the edge of the Chilterns in one of Hertfordshire’s most picturesque villages, residents can enjoy immediate access to over 100 acres of woodland on the Common—a perfect setting for outdoor walks and leisure activities. Chipperfield village boasts local amenities including shops, pubs, and historic sites. For more extensive shopping needs, nearby towns such as Watford, Hemel Hempstead, and Berkhamsted are easily accessible.
Transportation links are strong with proximity to major motorways (M1, M25, M40) facilitating travel across the region. The property is approximately 15 minutes away from Chorleywood tube station and mainline services at Kings Langley connect directly to London Euston.
Families will find numerous reputable schools in close vicinity—from preparatory institutions like York House to secondary options such as St Clement Danes and Merchant Taylors—providing excellent educational opportunities for children.
This cottage not only represents a promising project for those looking to invest in property but also offers an inviting lifestyle within a delightful community setting.
