Period charm and a touch of TV fame


Planning a move to the countryside? Live out your cottagecore dreams in this 17th century house, which was used as a filming location for Midsomer Murders.

Midsomer Murders Filming Locations: Long Crendon, Buckinghamshire

There’s no denying that this gorgeous home is brimming with chocolate box charm. With exposed beams, leaded windows and a thatched roof, it’s the quintessential country cottage – so much so, in fact, that it featured on multiple episodes of Midsomer Murders.

Dining room with wooden furniture, exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace.

Dating back to the 17th century, the Grade II listed property is complete with three bedrooms, two reception rooms and a family bathroom. Step inside and you’ll find yourself in a cosy entrance hall leading off to the dining room and the double-aspect sitting room – both of which feature inglenook fireplaces and those all-important exposed timbers.

The kitchen/breakfast room sits at the back of the house, providing plenty of additional dining space, classic wooden cabinets and lovely views of the garden beyond. The ground floor also contains a handy cloakroom and a utility room.

Heading upstairs, you’ll spot the spacious principal bedroom – which overlooks the pretty village high street – alongside two guest bedrooms and a large bathroom. Outside, meanwhile, there’s the meticulously-maintained garden to explore; spanning more than 100 feet, it encompasses a raised terrace area, a stone patio, and (of course) an array of flowers and trees. There’s also a detached garage with an office space above.

If you’re after a truly delightful country cottage, you can’t get much better than this. Standing proudly in the very heart of the village, it’s a real gem. (And its Midsomer Murders legacy is pretty impressive, too.)

Available through Hamptons for £850,000. For more information, visit hamptons.co.uk
