Set at the head of a quiet cul-de-sac in Ley Hill, this large detached family home offers flexible accommodation across two floors and generous outdoor space. The house provides four double bedrooms, three reception rooms and a kitchen/diner with separate utility, arranged to suit multigenerational living or home-working. Large rear windows and a conservatory maximise southerly light and uninterrupted views over gardens and open countryside.
The property sits on a substantial plot with a wide driveway and a detached double garage providing plentiful parking and storage. The southerly rear garden is a standout feature: largely lawned with mature beds and specimen trees, offering privacy and scope for landscaping or extension (subject to consents). Local amenities and highly regarded state and independent schools are within easy reach, and Chesham mainline station is under a mile away for direct journeys into central London.
Practical details: the house is freehold, heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators, and has double glazing (installation date unspecified). Broadband and mobile signal are average, and local crime levels are very low. Council tax is above average, and the property was constructed in the mid-20th century, so some period-era systems and finishes may require updating.
Known issues are factual and important for buyers: the conservatory and rear garden show signs of neglect and will need maintenance or renovation to restore them to prime condition. The interior layout is flexible but could benefit from modernization in parts to maximise the large floor area and eaves storage. Buyers should allow for typical mid-century maintenance and possible refurbishment costs.
