6 bed detached house for sale

Penn Street HP7

Set in a conservation area in this wonderful, picturesque village of Penn Street, surrounded by 400 acres of woodland, open fields to the rear and common to the front. Providing a truly stunning village location that allows a lifestyle change for anyone looking for a vibrant community with thriving pubs, sought after schooling, church and village hall, yet only a short distance to a station/tube.

Acorn Cottage built in 1982 is a deceptively spacious cottage style detached house with 3,100sqft of accommodation that has been a much-loved family home of the current owners for the last twenty four years, who have extended and expanded the accommodation which has been meticulously maintained over the years with the benefit of being offered with no onward chain.

A front door opens into a reception hall, with a cloakroom and staircase to the first floor. The comfortable sitting room is at the front with a fireplace and views out over the common. There is a large study or family room and separate dining room with doors out to the garden. The large kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a comprehensive range of units and integrated appliances with an adjoining utility room. The breakfast area opens into a generous conservatory which is a perfect spot to while away the time overlooking the beautiful garden.

On the first floor the main bedroom looks out over the common and has a large ensuite bathroom. There are three further double bedrooms on this floor served by a family bathroom. The attic has been converted to create two further bedrooms.

The property is approached via a five-bar gate leading to a generous gravel driveway providing ample parking, with a neat area of lawn and colourful borders. There is a large double garage with twin doors. The rear garden is an absolute delight and a real testament to the owners. There is a large terrace leading to a wide expanse of lawn with numerous flowering shrubs.

Location

You couldn’t ask for a more quintessentially English village setting than this, adjoining the common and just a stroll from the Squirrel public house, which overlooks the cricket ground on the green, it is so idyllic you can almost hear the sound of leather on willow. Yet you are only a short drive of all the arterial routes for commuting by road or rail including the tube at Amersham. Penn Street is fortunate to have two public houses, a sought-after primary school plus in the catchment area for highly sought after grammar schools, gym and village church with its notable steeple. The local walks are spectacular through 435 acres of ancient woodland known as Penn Wood part of the Chilterns aonb.

Shopping and recreational facilities can be found in nearby Amersham, Beaconsfield and High Wycombe, all of which have rail services into London Marylebone or Baker Street in as little as 30 minutes. The local school education options are second to none, with the Grammar Schools in Amersham and High Wycombe, plus the option of Godstow preparatory School.

A charming detached family home in an enviable position overlooking the common in this much admired village.
