5 bed country house for sale

The Avenue, Worminghall, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire HP18

Welcome...

Wooden gates swing open to reveal Saffron House, an exceptional family home offering five spacious bedrooms, generous private gardens, and far-reaching views across open fields and rolling hills beyond.
To the front, manicured lawns and mature trees frame the property beautifully, with a seating area to sit and soak it all in. There is ample parking, so the whole family is always welcome.

Come on in...
Step inside to a generous central hall where the staircase rises. A downstairs WC is perfectly placed for a busy family home. At the front of the property, a dedicated study is tucked away from the everyday flow of the house, offering a calm, private retreat for focused work.

Lovely Living Spaces...
The sitting room occupies the rear of the property, centred around a cosy log burner - perfect for those chilly autumn and winter evenings. French doors open through to the impressive conservatory, where morning sunlight pours in and three large opening windows and double doors to the garden keep things cool and fresh through the summer months. It is a wonderful space that blurs the boundary between inside and out.

The Heart Of The Home...
The kitchen is the true heart of the home and is the natural gathering place at the end of a busy day. Handsome wooden shaker-style units are topped with granite worktops, offering generous storage and preparation space, with room for a breakfast table at the centre. A Rangemaster oven, integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer mean the family chef has everything they need to create their favourite meals.
Dinner is then served in the elegant adjoining dining room. Beautifully decorated and finished with warm wooden flooring, this impressive space currently houses a handcrafted table seating 12 - a testament to just how well this home is made for entertaining.
The well-appointed utility room offers fitted storage units and plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer. Handy access leads through to the rear of the double garage and out to the side of the property - a practical touch for muddy boots after a countryside walk or an afternoon in the garden.

Beautiful Bedrooms...
Climb the staircase to the first floor, where a broad landing stretches ahead, giving way to five beautifully proportioned bedrooms.
The principal suite, set at the far left of the property, is a true sanctuary. Generous in size and bathed in garden views, it is a restful retreat at the end of the day. A dedicated dressing room with fitted wardrobes to either side ensures space for even the most extensive wardrobe. The en suite bathroom, complete with a bath, separate shower, wash basin and WC, invites long, uninterrupted soaks in complete peace.
The second bedroom sits at the front of the property with pleasant views over the gardens and driveway, alongside the fifth bedroom, the smallest of the five, ideal as a nursery or single guest room. To the rear, two further double bedrooms enjoy lovely garden outlooks.
The family bathroom is simply show-stopping. A large freestanding oval bath takes centre stage, complemented by a walk-in shower, wash basin and WC, a luxurious space the whole family will love.

Glorious Gardens...
A generous patio seating area extends from the conservatory doors across the full width of the rear, offering a wonderful spot for a peaceful morning coffee or a leisurely al fresco meal with friends. Beyond, the lawn rolls out to the rear boundary, with open fields stretching into the distance.
A greenhouse and neatly kept raised beds invite keen growers to get their hands in the soil. Fruit trees - including apple and plum - are dotted throughout the garden, alongside raspberries and strawberries, setting you up perfectly for a season of crumbles, jams and homemade chutneys.
The pergola is the perfect setting for a family barbecue, framed by fragrant lilacs and draped in Virginia creeper, whose blazing red leaves signal the turning of the season in the most spectacular way.

Out and About...
Worminghall is a much-loved village with a wonderfully strong sense of community. Whether it is quiz nights in the village hall, coffee mornings at the church, or a relaxed meal at the nearby Clifton Arms, there is always something to bring neighbours together.

Families are exceptionally well served by a choice of outstanding local schools. Commuters are equally well catered for, with easy motorway access for drivers and the Haddenham & Thame Parkway station just a short distance away, offering a direct service to London Marylebone in under 45 minutes.
