Tucked away and set well back from the road, the house is approached via a wide gravel driveway and the covered porch opens to the hall and ground floor reception rooms. To the left, the dining room (which could work well as a playroom) has a magnificent bay window, a feature fireplace and wooden flooring; the perfect setting for formal entertaining and family parties. The sitting room is located on the other side of the hall and the two large bay windows benefit from the south-westerly aspect. As well as the open fireplace, period features include picture rails, alcoves on either side of the double doors and sash windows. The heart of the home is located towards the rear of the house and comprises a family room (with a wood-burning stove, a fitted dresser and French doors to the garden) and the adjoining magnificent kitchen and triple aspect breakfast/garden room with warm red quarry tiles, exposed beams and French doors to the gardens. This is a wonderfully light space. Features of interest include the central island with an additional sink, a Rangemaster stove and warm, honey-coloured, wooden work surfaces. A study, hobbies room/garage and cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
Rising to the first floor, five bedrooms open off the wide landing. The 21 ft x 9 ft principal bedroom, spanning the depth of the house, is highly appealing with an en suite bathroom and dressing room. The guest bedroom has an en suite shower room and the remaining three bedrooms are served by the family bathroom with roll-top bath. Two of the bedrooms have spacious fitted wardrobes.

Outside

Discreetly located behind a high and well-maintained hedge, the gravel forecourt provides ample parking space for several cars and offers a pleasing view of the front of the house. To the left-hand side of the house, a gate opens onto the original flagstone path leading to the rear gardens which are enclosed by hedging. There is also gated access to the gardens on the right-hand side of the house. The gardens are well tended and largely laid to lawn with a flagstone terrace adjoining the house. This provides a very agreeable spot for al fresco dining. A summer house and an original well, which is now purely ornamental, complete the scene.

Situation

Located on the edge of the village, the property enjoys access to numerous country walks through open fields and woodland. The Post Office, schools and doctors’ surgeries are all approximately half a mile away. Great Missenden (just under two miles distant) offers specialised shopping, a main line station to London Marylebone (approximately 43 minutes) and an 18-court tennis club. High Wycombe (5.1 miles distant) provides a wider range of shops and a mainline station with the M40 junction 4 (6.5 miles distant). The area benefits from a wealth of popular pubs, restaurants, farm shops and highly regarded private and state schools (including grammar), details of which can be obtained from the local authority.
