An attractive detached brick and flint property, originally three cottages dating from the 1850’s and remodelled in 1961 to form the current house using the original materials, in need of considerable updating but offering tremendous potential to extend and improve as desired. The property stands in attractive gardens to the front and rear with ample parking, an integral garage and is gas centrally heated to radiators and double glazed.

The ground floor offers a large hallway with spiral staircase to the first floor and doors to the principal rooms. The living room has aspects to both the front and rear and a door to the rear garden. Next to this is the dining room, and beyond that the kitchen, with basic units and door to the garden. These rooms could be combined to provide a kitchen/dining room if wanted. Also off the hall is a shower room, several storage cupboards and a sliding door to the integral garage. To the first floor is an attractive galleried landing with doors to four separate bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is a loft with ladder and light.

To the front of the house is a long, block paved drive offering off road parking for several vehicles, leading to an integral single garage with light and power and a door to the rear garden. The front gardens have large lawned area with mature shrubs along one boundary and a brick and flint wall on the other with a delightful street scene. There is also a sizeable, detached timber barn with a clay tiled roof and full width opening door to the rear suitable for a small vehicle with two doors to the side. This building would suit a number of uses. To the rear is a concrete patio leading on to a lawned garden with vegetable patch and flower beds, including a raised central flower bed, seating area and garden shed. There is gated side access to the front gardens. The gardens have a South Westerly aspect.

The property is set in a popular country lane on the South side of the village, close to fields and woodland. The area is friendly and welcoming, and the village itself boasts a charming country pub with popular common area opposite and co-operative village store for day to day needs. There is a well thought of Infant School and Pre-School in the village and a selection of good state schools in Amersham, Chesham and Great Missenden and being within catchment for prestigious grammar schools too. The village is within easy reach of Chesham and Great Missenden as well as Amersham on the Hill, offering a range of boutique and national retailers, restaurants and pubs and Metropolitan and Chiltern Line Railway Station with a fast and frequent service to London. There are a variety of sporting activities in the area as well as many countryside walks within easy reach and excellent road access to the M40 and M25.
