Kiln LaneHedgerley, SL2 3UU

Yew Tree Cottage enjoys an idyllic, tucked away setting, surrounded by rolling countryside and woodland offering a peaceful retreat with stunning rural views. This charming property is thought to date back to about 1845 with later additions. The property has been expertly refurbished by the current owners adding a contemporary flavour but preserving the architectural bones of the cottage. Enjoying the best of both worlds, the cottage is in the beautiful village of Hedgerley with its pub and shop, yet just over four miles from Gerrards Cross station with fast trains to London Marylebone.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and exudes character with exposed beams throughout, and oak flooring flowing through most of the ground and first floors. The front door opens into an enclosed porch and through to the reception/dining hall, reputedly the oldest part of the house and could equally be utilized as further reception space. The sitting room is particularly special, enjoying a triple aspect and a brick fireplace with log burner. In addition is a charming snug overlooking the frontage, ideal as a TV room or formal dining room. Of particular note is the vaulted kitchen/breakfast room, an open plan and sociable space, with ample room for both a sofa and dining table while bi-fold doors extend the living space on to the outside terrace in the summer months. A dedicated office with built-in cabinetry, alongside a guest cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

The first-floor landing gives access to four bedrooms, all enjoying stunning views across the surrounding garden and countryside beyond. The vaulted, principal bedroom is a particularly characterful room, enjoying a dual aspect and offering ample space for freestanding furniture alongside a beautifully appointed en suite shower room. The three remaining bedrooms are served by a luxurious bathroom with both a shower and separate bath. Three further bedrooms provide characterful accommodation and are served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom, fitted with both a bath and separate shower.

The property is approached through beautiful cottage-style gardens wrapping around the house, creating a wonderful sense of privacy and colour throughout the seasons. The gardens feature well-stocked flower beds complemented by large areas of manicured lawn. Post and rail fencing encloses the grounds, with the rear boundary enjoying an enviable outlook over the open fields of the Portman Estate, providing a picturesque rural backdrop. To the front, the property benefits from attractive woodland views, enhancing the peaceful countryside setting. External security lighting provides both convenience and additional peace of mind. Further benefits include a barn-style garage with adjoining workshop.
