1 Shepherds Cottages enjoys views over parkland to the front and a generous garden to the rear, with the added benefit of a double garage and further driveway parking.
The ground floor offers a spacious kitchen/diner featuring a shaker-style fitted kitchen with LPG-fired AGA, electric oven and hob, and integrated dishwasher. The sitting room overlooks parkland and features a decorative cast-iron fireplace. A large utility room and downstairs WC are accessed via the kitchen, with direct access into the garden.
Upstairs are two bedrooms, one with hand-built fitted wardrobes, and a generous family bathroom comprising a roll-top cast-iron bath with waterfall shower over, double marble-topped basin, WC, two heated towel rails and a large fitted airing cupboard.
The garden is mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs and fruit trees, complemented by a large rear patio and pathways to the front garden. Climbing roses and wisteria add further character to the property. Following some extensive tree works, the garden requires re-seeding to re-establish the lawn. The landlord will undertake this during the spring and will maintain the grass until it is able to be handed over to the tenant.
1 Shepherd’s Cottages is set on a private road at the heart of the Gorhambury Estate.

The mainline station is approximately 4 miles from the cottage and offers a direct link to London St Pancras in 21 minutes.
