A 17th century thatched cottage from an episode of Midsomer Murders is on the market for £850,000.

The three-bedroom property in Long Crendon has been listed by estate agent Hamptons for buyers looking to scoop up a pad hot off the small screen.

Wells Cottage, a Grade-II listed family home in the Aylesbury village, boasts pretty wood-panelled interiors, an old-fashion fireplace and a neatly trimmed garden alongside other functions and amenities.

Three bedrooms on the second floor include a view of the village high street from the master suite and the ground floor is made up of an entrance hall, three reception rooms, a dining room and double-aspect sitting room – all contributing to the cosy feel and character of the building.

A spokesperson for Hamptons described the house as a “charming” find that was sufficiently “striking” for Midsomer Murders producers – set apart from competing properties by its “lush garden” and multi-purpose detached garage and office next to the drive.

Alongside a “meticulously tended garden with a large lawn and beautiful herbaceous borders spanning two levels”, it sits in the centre of Long Crendon, which itself has two traditional country pubs as well as shops, a butcher, a library, post office, dentist and hairdresser.
