5 bed detached house for sale

Monks Risborough, Buckinghamshire HP27

This exquisite property dates in origin from circa 1750 and has been meticulously restored and maintained over the years, still retaining its original integrity yet so liveable in the 21st Century. On the other side of the courtyard and in addition to the main house, is a restored 18th Century thatched barn, still retaining the original mangers which are in beautiful condition.

The accommodation is light and airy throughout with a lovely traditional ambience. On the ground floor there are four principal reception rooms, including a lovely formal sitting room, a panelled cosy tv/family room, fitted study and a charming formal dining room. The kitchen/breakfast room is in a classic farmhouse style, well equipped and with the essential aga. This in turn leads through to the utility room and on to the games room, which opens onto the courtyard.

On the first floor four of the bedrooms enjoy a spectacular view up to Whiteleaf Cross, including the main bedroom which has a well-appointed ensuite bathroom. Bedroom five lies at the rear as does the elegant family bathroom.
Outside

The driveway is to the side and leads round to the private gravel courtyard and a landscaped centre circle with a small pond. This provides ample parking for numerous vehicles as well as the four car garaging.

The thatched barn is also Grade II Listed and has some beautiful exposed timbers and is currently in two sections, one of which is currently used as a gym and the other as a games room with a full size snooker table. This area has great potential as ancillary accommodation (subject to planning).

Beyond the barn is the indoor heated pool which is designed in the style of a barn to complement the surroundings.

The gardens are laid predominantly to lawn with the boundaries enclosed by fencing or hedging. There are established borders and mature fruit trees.
