A GRADE II listed thatched cottage has gone on the market in Aylesbury for over £600k.

The four-bedroom detached property in Old Whitchurch on Market Hill has recently had the thatched ridge renewed by a master thatcher.

The property features an entrance hall with a study leading into a sitting room with an inglenook-style fireplace with a wood-burning stove.

The breakfast area has plenty of room for a table, window, and door to the front.

The bathroom is spacious with wood effect flooring, a panelled bath, walk-in shower, glazed window and a pedestal wash basin.

The staircase from the family room leads to the landing and the first and third bedroom.

The village of Whitchurch is full of history and was considered by Sir John Betjeman to be one of the best Buckinghamshire villages.

The village offers local facilities including several garages, a petrol station and shop, a farm shop and a renowned butcher's.

It also benefits from many ancient footpaths and circular walks through the surrounding countryside.

Aylesbury with its multiple shopping facilities and amenities is only 5 miles away and Milton Keynes lies 12 miles away.
