9 SANDPIT HILL COTTAGES CHOLESBURY LANE CHOLESBURY BUCKINGHAMSHIRE HP23 6NF
A beautifully decorated, double-fronted cottage with stunning, far-reaching views to the rear.

GUIDE PRICE £550,000
With woodland walks and wide, open views all connected by countless footpaths, Cholesbury is popular with walkers, cyclists and horse-riders alike, watered along their journey by the beloved Full Moon public house. The village green is home to the local cricket team, founded in 1885, and there are regular events twinned with the other 3 neighbouring ‘hill-top villages’. Just down from the green and set back on their own service road, Sandpit Cottages preside between the village and the pastures. Pulling onto the private gravel driveway there is space to park two cars, side by side. As you enter through the main door, to the right there is a well-appointed utility room with cloakroom toilet and space for washer, drier and plenty of additional storage. Upstairs, three double bedrooms are serviced by a substantial bathroom with both a free-standing tub and capacious walk- in shower. Returning downstairs, a dual-aspect log burner divides the lounge area with ample seating from the open-plan, kitchen-diner. Bi-fold doors lead out onto a large decked terrace with stairs down to the well-kept, mature garden ending with a small paved pergola, a private, folly-esque feel, for summer evenings gazing across the fields.
LOCATION Cholesbury is one of four villages (the others being Hawridge, St Leonards and Buckland Common) comprising Cholesbury -cum-St Leonards, a civil parish within Chiltern District, Buckinghamshire. Forming part of The Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the village sits on a plateau overlooking the Aylesbury Vale and provides a wonderfully bucolic setting, with the commons, woodland, Hawridge & Cholesbury Cricket Club and The Full Moon pub all a stone’s throw away. The area is criss-crossed with footpaths and bridleways, making this a popular location for walking, cycling and horse riding. Tring, Berkhamsted, Wendover and Chesham are all within easy reach and offer a wide variety of amenities including restaurants, shops, boutiques and leisure facilities. They all also have excellent rail services, with London Euston accessible in as little as 30 minutes and London Marylebone from Chesham and Amersham. There are also superb road links, with the nearby A41 dual carriageway giving easy access to the M25 and beyond.
EDUCATION The property lies in the catchment for Hawridge & Cholesbury CE School, then Chiltern Hills Academy. Buckinghamshire still offers the Grammar school system with Chesham Grammar School and Dr Challoner's High School in Amersham. There are also a number of preparatory schools in the area, including Chesham Prep, The Beacon and Berkhamsted School.
