Generous five-bedroom home with annex, stables and stunning Chiltern views.
Approximately 1.5 acres of mature gardens, paddock and orchard
A substantial five-bedroom family home set in approximately 1.5 acres of mature gardens, paddock and orchard, with far-reaching Chiltern countryside views. The house offers generous, flexible living: a large kitchen/diner with island and granite worktops, a bespoke orangery with underfloor heating, formal reception room with wood-burning stove, snug and a dedicated cinema room. Outside there are three stables with hay store, a four-car garage with a spacious room above (currently arranged as a self-contained annex), and extensive parking.
The first-floor accommodation includes five double bedrooms, two en suites and a principal suite with dressing room, five-piece bathroom and a Juliet balcony overlooking the paddock. The annex above the garage is currently self-contained (two bedrooms, open-plan kitchen/reception, wet room) and provides genuine multi-generational or rental potential. The property is offered chain free and sits on a large plot with easy access to local bridleways, village amenities and schools.
Practical considerations: the house was built mid-20th century and, while well maintained, will show areas that could benefit from updating to modern standards. Heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators (ongoing fuel and maintenance costs), broadband speeds are reported slow, and council tax is described as quite expensive. Buyers should verify services, fixtures and the garage-annex utilities, and note the property has been in the same ownership for over 20 years.
This home suits a growing family wanting space for horses and garden projects, or buyers seeking countryside lifestyle with potential to add value through selective modernization and improved connectivity.
