Description
Ideally located in the heart of this sought after village, this lovely semi-detached home dates back to the 1950s and occupies a spacious corner plot with a large rear garden alongside three paddocks and stabling. The property benefits from the Bledlow Ridge uninterrupted views and a friendly and active community together with a village primary school, numerous walks and bridleways. Having been extended over the years, the property now offers excellent accommodation for a growing family.

Set over two floors the front door opens into an entrance hall, with storage and stairs to the first floor. Limestone flooring extends through to the kitchen/dining room to the rear with French doors from the dining area opening on to the garden and decked terrace outside. The kitchen is well equipped, benefitting from a range of units, worktops and integrated appliances. Just off the kitchen, a playroom/snug is a useful addition for young families. An adjacent utility/boot room provides space and plumbing for appliances, a cloakroom and stable door access to the garden. Completing the ground floor is a charming sitting room to the front with real oak flooring, box bay window and feature fireplace.
A staircase from the reception hall leads to the first floor, dividing at the top and providing access to the principal bedroom which enjoys a dual aspect, built-in wardrobes and an en suite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms, one with fitted wardrobes while a single bedroom to the front also benefits from built-in storage, served by a family bathroom. Both bedrooms to the rear enjoy lovely countryside views.
The property is situated at the end of a popular cul-de-sac, backing on to a neighbouring field. There is private driveway parking for multiple vehicles. The rear garden is large and predominately laid to lawn, interspersed with trees including a walnut and three plum trees. An outbuilding nestles in the corner comprising a large 301 sq ft garden office and adjacent/workshop. This provides a versatile space and could have a multitude of uses. A decked patio adjoins the house and offers an excellent setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, complemented by a terrace and an additional gravelled area. At the side of the property, a private track leads to three separate paddocks alongside three stables, tack room, hay barn and covered open store. One of the paddocks was formerly a manège and could possibly by re-instated if required. 1.38 acres in all.
