Set on a generous, elevated plot in Downley, this 1930s detached home offers substantial potential for families or buyers seeking a renovation project. The house retains period character and benefits from an open-plan ground floor and a large, sunny terraced garden—ideal for outdoor living and landscaping. There is clear scope to extend (STPP) to create extra living space or improve the layout.
Inside, the current layout provides three well-proportioned bedrooms and a spacious open-plan lounge/dining room stretching front to back. The kitchen overlooks the rear garden but requires updating; the property overall needs modernisation which presents an opportunity to add contemporary finishes and increase value. The garage and driveway offer practical parking and storage.
Practical considerations are straightforward: this is freehold with an EPC rating of 56 (D) and Council Tax Band E. Transport links are convenient for commuters, with access to High Wycombe station and the M40. Local schools include some highly ranked choices nearby, though a few primary schools have lower Ofsted ratings — important for families to review.
This property will suit buyers looking to personalise and improve a family home in a peaceful, village-like setting close to town amenities. The combination of a large plot, elevated views, and extension potential make this a compelling blank canvas for renovation or extension (STPP).
