This historic Grade II Listed cottage, originally dating back to the 17th century, represents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts or investors. Nestled in nearly half an acre of tranquil gardens within the charming Bedfordshire village of Totternhoe, this three/four-bedroom detached home offers a wealth of original features ripe for reimagining. With its rich history as part of The Totternhoe Estate and with no onward chain, it beckons buyers looking to restore or modernize while preserving its character. Inside, the property boasts exposed beams, original brickwork, and a stunning inglenook fireplace that form the backdrop for transformation. The layout currently includes spacious living areas with dual aspects that flood them with natural light, including a formal dining room and inviting sitting room overlooking beautifully maintained gardens.
The kitchen, while functional, presents an opportunity for upgrades that could enhance flow and functionality. The addition of a garden room provides lovely views but could also benefit from contemporary touches. Upstairs, generous bedrooms including a master suite with en suite facilities highlight potential for refined finishes or reconfiguration based on lifestyle needs.
Outside, the expansive rear garden is bordered by mature hedges and includes versatile outbuildings that could be repurposed into home offices or leisure spaces—ideal for modern living demands. This property not only offers a promising renovation project but also enjoys scenic countryside views and access to nearby amenities and transport links to London, making it an attractive investment in a desirable location.
