6 bed detached house for sale

Chapman Lane, Bourne End SL8

Beautifully proportioned and aptly named, Field View is tucked away along a wooded, no-through private lane on the northwest edge of Bourne End, with stunning views to the west over open farmland towards Little Marlow. The attractive detached home was built in 2002 and has been well maintained and updated over the years, creating a stylish and modern family home. The internal specification is presented to an exceptional standard, incorporating an oak staircase and matching plank flooring, a limestone fireplace, wood-burning stove and a neutral colour palette. The extended accommodation has a fabulously light and spacious feel, combining high ceilings, tall windows and generous room sizes. Of particular note is the kitchen, featuring Tom Howley of Beaconsfield cabinetry in a modern shaker style, including a hand-painted island with marble work surfaces and premium appliances.

The ground floor accommodation comprises a reception hall leading to a sitting room, formal dining room, study, and open plan kitchen/breakfast room with adjoining family room and orangery. There is also a laundry room, cloakroom and coats’ storage. Upstairs, the first floor has a stunning principal suite which has a large bedroom, west-facing balcony, dressing room and ensuite bath/shower room. There is a further ensuite guest bedroom, three additional double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The final sixth bedroom/playroom is situated on the second floor.

Outside

Field View is approached via a private lane with access via wooden electric gates, which open to a generously proportioned private driveway with parking for several vehicles. The detached double garage with EV charger provides additional covered parking and also features a gym and a useful first-floor annexe with an open plan bedroom/living/kitchenette area and ensuite shower room – the ideal space for an au pair, visiting guests or older children living at home. The mature grounds envelop the house, with established trees providing a high degree of privacy along the north, south and east sides of the plot, giving way to unobstructed views to the west over open countryside. The south-facing rear garden is attractively landscaped with a sizeable lawn, paved terrace for garden furniture, a variety of shrubs and a stunning outdoor heated swimming pool (new liner installed in 2023 and a new 'In Rails' safety cover installed in 2024), which is heated via a separate heat pump.
