An exceptional 18th century barn conversion in a unique, private setting with large, landscaped gardens and detached studio.
Description
Dating back to about 1780, Ponds Barn is a fine example of an 18th century barn conversion, wonderfully located on the edge of sought after Seer Green. Set in just under an acre of beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds, this delightful home enjoys a unique, private setting in a small, exclusive gated development. Retaining much of its original charm the property is brimming with character features and showcases a host of exposed roof trusses & timbers throughout.
The accommodation flows well, with a mix of formal and informal reception space, perfect for family life. A spacious, vaulted reception hall with a galleried landing above creates an excellent first impression. Just off the hall is a study and guest cloakroom. The kitchen/breakfast room is beautifully appointed with an excellent range of oak units complemented by granite worktops and premium integrated appliances, while an island unit incorporates breakfast bar seating. The adjacent family room is open to the kitchen with French doors to the outside courtyard. An office/study sits just off the family room, fitted with bespoke cabinetry, perfect for home working. An undoubted highlight is the drawing room, a superb vaulted and spacious room, opening into the orangery. A double aspect fireplace separates the space while bi-fold doors in the orangery open on to the garden. There is underfloor heating throughout the ground floor.
The double aspect principal bedroom is located on the ground floor and benefits from a fully fitted dressing room and luxurious en suite bathroom. French doors give access on to the courtyard.
On the first floor the landing is spacious and offers a versatile space perfect as a study area or reading nook. There are two characterful bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes and well-appointed en suite shower rooms.
The gardens of Ponds Barn are a particular highlight, beautifully landscaped with a large expanse of lawn to the front and an attractive landscaped courtyard area accessed from the kitchen and family room. To the front a large expanse of lawn is interspersed with mature trees adjoining a woodland area to the side. At the far end a superb garden studio/gym provides a green retreat, complete with hot & cold air conditioning and a shower room. Further highlights include shaped hedging, gravelled paths and well stocked beds and borders giving colour and seasonal interest. Several patio areas provide ideal space for outside dining and entertaining. Accessed via a long gated private drive, a parking area provides ample space for multiple vehicles and leads to the double garage. The garage is currently partly used as an indoor gym but could be easily converted back
Location
Seer Green and Jordans station 1.3 miles, Beaconsfield 3.3 miles, M40 (J2) 3.7 miles, Gerrards Cross 4.5 miles, Heathrow (T5) 17 miles, central London 26 miles (Baker Street) All times are approximate.
The pretty village of Seer Green, a desirable and sought after village in the Chiltern Hills, offers a small variety of shops, a well-regarded village school and two local pubs. More comprehensive facilities are available in Gerrards Cross and the market town of Beaconsfield. The local countryside provides some excellent walks and bridle paths along the Chiltern footpaths.
This family home is ideal for commuters as Seer Green and Jordans station is just over a mile away, offering a mainline train service to London Marylebone while the M40 (J2) affords access to London, Heathrow and the M25.
