Property description
Aubrey Lee Estate Agents are extremely pleased to be able to offer this incredibly pleasant and well presented, circa1950's built, three bedroomed detached family home, having been well maintained by the current house-proud owners and offering good sized, well appointed and bright accommodation throughout. With truly delightful gardens to front and rear plus driveway offering more than ample off-street parking, the property has the benefit of gas central heating and upvc double glazing, and is Freehold we are informed. The accommodation comprises: Porch, entrance hall, lounge (with views over both front and rear gardens), dining room, tv/family room and kitchen. The first floor offers main bedroom with fitted furniture and overlooking both the front and rear of the property, family bathroom/wc with walk-in shower cubicle, a further fitted double bedroom, larger than average single, fitted bedroom plus additional separate wc. It is interesting to note that the house-proud vendors of this property have not only lived here for many decades (approximately 45 years we are informed) but locally it is very rare that properties come for sale as homeowners tend to stay for a considerable time which we believe 'speaks volumes' as to what a fine residential location this is. The following details are necessarily brief and we feel sure that internal viewings will not disappoint. All viewings are strictly by appointment through this office.

POINT OF INTEREST
The owners have informed us of some fascinating historical history behind the names of Butt Hill and nearby Butterstile Lane. The word Butt Hill relates to archery practise and the name Butterstile derives from the time of the plague, when farmers who produced butter left the butters on a stile, to avoid coming into contact with people who may have the plague, and the purchasers of their goods in turn left payment there.
