Un Affascinante E Storico Cottage Del Villaggio DI Chiltern, Che Si Ritiene Appartenga Alla Stessa Famiglia Da Otto

A truly charming Chiltern village cottage, occupying an enviable position within the sought-after village of Speen, with delightful views from the gardens stretching across the surrounding open countryside. Believed to have been owned by the same family for hundreds of years, spanning an impressive eight generations, Fir View Cottage is a home rich in history, character and charm, retaining a wealth of original features that give the property its unique appeal.

Speen is one of South Buckinghamshire’s most desirable rural villages, offering the perfect combination of peaceful countryside living and excellent accessibility. Surrounded by beautiful open countryside, the village provides an abundance of opportunities for walking and enjoying the Chiltern landscape, while the local village store and well-regarded Speen Church of England School are both within easy reach. The nearby market town of Princes Risborough provides a wider range of shops, restaurants and everyday amenities, together with a regular train service to London Marylebone, with journey times of approximately 40 minutes, making the village particularly attractive to London commuters.

Stepping inside, Fir View Cottage immediately showcases its period character, with a versatile layout providing three to four reception rooms, including a delightful conservatory overlooking the secluded rear garden. The impressive main living room features an open fireplace with log burner, while the formal dining room also enjoys an open fireplace with log burner. A particularly charming original domed bread oven, now cleverly used for wine storage, is a wonderful reminder of the property’s heritage. There is also a separate family room/TV room, providing useful additional living space.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of appliances and is complemented by a separate utility room and downstairs cloakroom.

To the first floor are four good-sized bedrooms. The principal bedroom and bedroom two both benefit from en suite shower rooms, with one also incorporating a bath, while bedrooms three and four are served by the family bathroom.

The gardens are undoubtedly one of the property’s outstanding features. Predominantly positioned to the rear and side of the cottage, they provide a wonderfully private and secluded setting, with attractive views extending over the surrounding countryside. There are several areas from which to enjoy the gardens, including a dedicated seating area, separate dining area and sun patio, creating the perfect spaces for entertaining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

A substantial summer house/outside office, complete with light and power, provides an excellent additional space for working from home, hobbies or simply enjoying the garden throughout the seasons.

To the rear of the property is a hardstanding parking area providing parking for three cars.

Fir View Cottage is a rare opportunity to acquire a character home with genuine history, beautiful countryside surroundings and a wonderful village setting. Properties offering this combination of period charm, generous accommodation, private gardens, rural views, excellent schooling and convenient London connections seldom become available in Speen.

An early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the character, setting and exceptional position this delightful home has to offer.
