Nestled in the picturesque village of Eton Wick, White Cottage is not just a home; it’s a testament to timeless elegance and a canvas of endless possibilities. Built in 1907, this classic detached Edwardian residence stands proudly on a generous plot spanning nearly a quarter of an acre, with the tantalizing prospect of expansion (subject to planning permission).
A Warm Welcome Awaits
Stepping inside, you’re greeted by a beautifully tiled entrance hallway, setting the tone for the well-presented family accommodation that lies within. White Cottage is more than just a house; it’s a place where cherished memories are waiting to be made.
Charm in Every Corner
The living spaces are both spacious and charming, with a dual-aspect sitting room and a separate dining room that exude character, complete with fireplaces and bay windows that bathe the rooms in natural light. These front-facing rooms offer a warm and inviting atmosphere that’s perfect for family gatherings or cozy evenings by the fire.
Heart of the Home
The kitchen/breakfast room is the heart of White Cottage, where the family can come together. It’s a well-appointed space, featuring two generous windows that flood the area with daylight. A central island adds functionality and style, while a range-style cooker stands ready to turn every meal into a culinary masterpiece.
Your Private Oasis
Ascend the staircase in the hallway, and you’ll discover three comfortable bedrooms and a contemporary-styled bathroom, complete with both a bath and a walk-in shower. Bedrooms one and two feature built-in wardrobes, offering plenty of storage space for your belongings.
Endless Outdoor Delights
The delights of White Cottage extend beyond its charming interior. A driveway at the front of the property provides convenient off-street parking. At the rear, a
generous south-facing garden awaits, stretching approximately 116 feet. It’s a mature garden, thoughtfully landscaped with a lush lawn, a paved terrace for al fresco dining, a thriving vegetable patch, apple trees, a greenhouse, and a timber shed for all your garden storage needs. And, for those with creative visions, there’s ample space at the back of the garden to consider a detached studio or outbuilding, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
