3 bed detached house for sale

Westover Road, Downley, High Wycombe HP13

Listed on the open market for the first time, this property has been in the family for around 70 years - a fantastic endorsement of how much this home has been loved and enjoyed. The substantial plot offers huge scope for extending this property, or also for any needs for outbuildings such as home offices (all subject to planning permission and building regulations), so this could become a long term family home for the next owners too. Whilst the property would benefit from some modernisation, it is in good condition and allows a new owner to put their own stamp on the property in their own taste. Particularly impressive spaces in these homes include the living room and main bedroom above, with the feature bay windows and views to the front. The location offers a peaceful village lifestyle ideal for keen walkers and cyclists with a strong community and lots of local events and activities, but is also convenient for access to J4 of the M40 and also High Wycombe town centre including the Chiltern Line train station with regular trains to London Marylebone in under half an hour.
