Large character home in gated private road, south-facing garden and double garage.
Five double bedrooms, five bath/shower rooms
This substantial five-bedroom detached house on Beeches Drive combines period charm with contemporary family living. Set within a gated private road close to Burnham Beeches, the home keeps many original features — cast iron fireplaces, timber framing and leaded windows — alongside modern comforts such as a large, lantern-lit kitchen, extensive fitted appliances and underfloor heating across most of the ground floor.
Arranged over multiple levels, the property offers flexible living: four principal reception rooms, a generous kitchen/dining space with bi-fold doors to the south-facing patio, a large utility room and a self-contained fifth bedroom with eaves storage. Outdoor space includes a large rear garden with services laid for a garden building or home office, a detached double garage with EV charger infrastructure and parking for several cars behind electric gates.
Practical considerations are clear and factual. Broadband speeds are slow in this area. Council tax is high (Band G) and the house is part of a residents’ association with an annual payment of £440. The house was constructed in the 1930s with solid brick and internal insulation; buyers should note the age-related maintenance that can come with an older property despite the many recent upgrades.
This house will suit an established family seeking space, character and easy access to highly rated local schools, or buyers wanting a large, well-equipped home with scope for a garden office. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, natural light and the balance of original detail with modern fixtures.
