Spacious village-centre home with large secret garden and renovation potential.
Five bedrooms across multiple storeys, approximately 3,830 sq ft
Large private 'secret' garden, surprisingly spacious for a High Street plot
Grade II listed — renovation requires listed-building consents

Single bathroom only for five bedrooms — upgrade likely needed
Garage available on a peppercorn ground rent off the High Street
Cellar and mixed-use corner layout create flexible use potential
Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, central village location
This deceptively spacious Grade II listed corner property sits in the heart of Great Missenden and offers generous, flexible accommodation across multiple floors. The house delivers five bedrooms, a surprisingly large ‘secret’ garden and a cellar, all within easy walking distance of shops, pubs and well-regarded local schools — a genuine village-centre family opportunity.
The building’s historic character is clear in the brickwork, traditional windows and exposed beams, but the interior requires comprehensive updating. The layout and size (around 3,830 sq ft) give scope to create a comfortable family home or a mixed-use arrangement; the garage is offered on a peppercorn ground rent which adds convenient vehicular access from the High Street.
Buyers should be aware this is a listed property and will present renovation constraints and extra consent requirements. There is only one bathroom for five bedrooms and the property is sold needing renovation, so budgeting for modernisation and listed-building works is essential. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working and modern family life.
For families attracted to central village living with gardens, character and school options nearby, this house is rare. For investors or developers experienced with listed buildings, the mixed-use corner positioning and size present potential to reconfigure, subject to consents. Viewing is essential to appreciate the space and garden which are larger than they appear from the street.
