This detached five-bedroom house on Tortoiseshell Road is arranged over three floors and offers generous space (approximately 2,060 sq ft) for family life. The ground floor centres on a striking open-plan kitchen/diner/living room that connects to a south-facing, enclosed garden — a practical layout for everyday family living and entertaining. Two bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and all bedrooms include built-in wardrobes, reducing immediate storage needs.
A converted garage provides a flexible extra room currently used for leisure or home working; driveway parking remains available but the property no longer has an internal garage. Practical features include double glazing, cavity wall insulation (as built), mains gas boiler with radiators, and fast broadband — useful for remote working and streaming. The house is freehold and sits in a quiet, low-crime neighbourhood with good nearby amenities and a mix of primary and secondary schools, including two grammar schools rated outstanding.
Buyers should note some material points: council tax is described as expensive, mobile signal is only average, and one nearby secondary (Aylesbury UTC) has a less favourable Ofsted outcome. The converted garage may suit most families but buyers wanting a formal garage should factor that in. Overall, the home suits growing families who prioritise space, versatile living areas and proximity to well-rated schools and local facilities.
