Charming Grade II Listed Cottage in Bendish, HertfordshireNestled in the heart of the picturesque hamlet of Bendish, and overlooking its green, is The Old Bakery: a beautiful Grade II-listed detached 17th-century cottage. This quaint 4-bedroom home offers an abundance of space, with a generous 2417 sq ft of versatile accommodation, on a sizeable 0.48-acre-plot, with a large front drive, and additional parking at the rear along with patio space. Well-maintained throughout, The Old Bakery offers a mix of charming traditional features with contemporary touches. Formed from what were once three cottages, The Old Bakery boasts the original inglenook fireplace with bread oven, which inspired its name. Prior to becoming a family home in the 1990s, The Old Bakery was the former village pub/beer house known as The Harrow, and its dining room was the hamlet's shop. The vendors have researched much of its fascinating history; this is an amazing opportunity to become part of this charming house's next chapter.Downstairs is comprised of a large entrance hall, spacious and cosy double reception room with exposed timbers and a working wood-burning stove, kitchen, utility room, dining room with working open-fire inglenook fireplace, study, large family/playroom, and shower room. Upstairs consists of four good-sized bedrooms (the principal bedroom has a WC), and a recently renovated family bathroom. The Old Bakery is tastefully decorated throughout in heritage colours, with scope for the new owners to add their own personal touch.OFFERED WITH NO ONWARD CHAINLocalityThe hamlet of Bendish is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), just off the Hertfordshire spur of beautiful Chiltern Hills, renowned for its chalk streams, wildflower-rich chalk grassland and prehistoric settlements. Bendish is set in an agricultural landscape within the green belt, and has a strong community spirit. It has a recreation ground, and the local area offers an abundance of public footpaths, and cycle routes for outdoor enthusiasts.The hamlet is well-positioned, approximately 6 miles from both Harpenden and the ancient English market town of Hitchin, which offer a wide range of shopping facilities, cafes and restaurants.
