The property


Broadway House is a fascinating former coach house believed to date in origin to 1897 with later additions. The property has been sympathetically converted to offer versatile living accommodation with potential for further enlargement, subject to the necessary planning permission. The property still retains much of the original character, being of brick construction under tiled roof slopes with exposed timbers, leaded light windows and many of the rooms being double aspect. The beautiful, mature gardens which extend to approximately one acre are an undoubted feature and back onto open countryside.


Location


Broadway House is pleasantly situated backing onto open farmland with far reaching views to the rear. Chartridge village is within the heart of the Chiltern Hills and surrounded by open countryside with much of the surrounding land being designated as in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Chartridge offers an abundance of walking country over farmland and through woodland and there is a public house, village hall and golf club. Chartridge is ideal for commuters, being only 3.5 miles from Great Missenden station (London, Marylebone) or Amersham & Chesham (Metropolitan tube line to London, Baker Street) with excellent road communications to London via the M40 (Jnct2 Beaconsfield) and the A41 at Berkhamsted which both give access to the M25.


Education


Chartridge has a combined junior school with the excellent grammar schools at Amersham, Little Chalfont and Chesham at secondary level. There is a good selection of local boys and girls preparatory schools including Chesham Preparatory, The Beacon and Heatherton House. In the senior sector there is Berkhamsted Collegiate, Tring Arts Educational School and Wycombe Abbey
