Tucked away in Knotty Green, Baylins Farm is a much-loved, Grade II listed home set in nearly six acres. With over 10,000 sq/ft of characterful accommodation, it offers rare seclusion, rich heritage and exceptional access to London and beyond.
ABOUT THIS HOUSE
Tucked away in Knotty Green, just moments from the centre of Beaconsfield, yet a world away in feel, Baylins Farm is a captivating Grade II listed farmhouse that has remained in the same family for over 100 years. Set within just under six acres of mature gardens and paddocks, this much-loved home offers a rare sense of permanence and place. Steeped in heritage and brimming with character the main house spans over 5,700 sq/ft, with a further suite of outbuildings including a two-bedroom cottage, an award-winning barn with vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, a quadruple garage and workshop, bringing the total accommodation to over 10,000 sq/ft. The grounds are equally compelling, with a swimming pool, outdoor squash court, paddocks and a granary adding to the lifestyle on offer. Despite the sense of seclusion, central London is within easy reach thanks to Beaconsfield’s fast rail service to Marylebone and excellent access to the M40 and M25.
The approach to Baylins Farm is quietly impressive, with a private driveway that leads directly to the front of the house before continuing around to the garaging and gardens beyond. In the front garden, a pond sits beneath the wide branches of an old oak tree, a gentle nod to the property’s long-established setting.
Inside, the house is full of unexpected details: the drawing room is a particular highlight, with decorative beams hand-painted by the celebrated MacDonald Gill—bringing artistry and heritage together in one remarkable space. In the colder months, a Swedish wood-burning stove offers both warmth and atmosphere.
One of the standout features of the property is the award-winning barn conversion, now used as a generous studio space. With vaulted ceilings, exposed timbers and an abundance of natural light, it offers both scale and tranquillity in equal measure. A first-floor mezzanine provides further flexibility, complete with its own shower room, making it ideal for creative work away from the main house.
ABOUT THIS AREA
Located on the edge of Beaconsfield, Knotty Green is a charming Buckinghamshire village where traditional English character meets modern-day ease. It’s the kind of place where cricket is still played on the green, where neighbours know each other by name, and where the pace of life feels just that little bit gentler. Surrounded by rolling countryside yet moments from the cosmopolitan buzz of Beaconsfield’s Old and New Towns, Knotty Green offers the best of both worlds—access to outstanding schooling, swift connections into London, and a sense of community that’s increasingly rare to find. Whether it’s a walk through ancient woodland or a long lunch at a well-heeled local pub, life here is rich in rhythm and rooted in heritage.
