6 bed detached house for sale

Amersham Road, Chalfont St Peter, Gerrards Cross SL9

A substantial and characterful detached residence, extending to over 5,000 sq ft, occupying a generous plot with extensive driveway parking, double garage, and an impressive indoor swimming pool complex – offering exceptional scope to modernise, remodel or reconfigure (STPP). Set behind a wide frontage with a sweeping block-paved driveway and central landscaped feature, this imposing home provides privacy, scale and tremendous versatility, ideal for growing families or multi-generational living.

Ground Floor

A spacious entrance hall creates an immediate sense of proportion and provides access to the principal reception rooms. The main living room is a superb triple-aspect space measuring approximately 27 ft in length, with excellent natural light and French doors opening out to the garden. This room is ideal for formal entertaining while remaining comfortable for everyday family use. The family room, positioned to the rear of the property, is another generous reception space (over 23 ft), well suited as a relaxed sitting room, media room or children’s lounge, with direct access to the pool complex. The dining room offers a well-balanced formal entertaining space, conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen and hall, easily accommodating a large dining table for gatherings. The kitchen/breakfast room extends to approximately 20 ft and provides ample cabinetry and worktop space, with room for a breakfast table. There is clear potential to create a stunning open-plan kitchen/living/dining arrangement, subject to the necessary consents. A conservatory/garden room provides an additional reception area overlooking the garden and would make an ideal reading room or informal sitting area. The indoor swimming pool complex is a particularly notable feature, measuring over 34 ft in length with bifold doors opening on to a generous decking area. This area offers enormous flexibility — whether retained as a leisure suite or potentially repurposed as a gym, studio, annex-style accommodation, or further reception space (subject to any required permissions).

Additional ground floor benefits include cloakroom facilities, covered storage areas and internal access arrangements that lend themselves well to adaptation.

First Floor

The first floor is arranged around a generous central landing, creating a well-balanced bedroom layout. The principal bedroom suite is an impressive space of approximately 19 ft by 17 ft, incorporating a dedicated dressing room and ensuite bathroom. The room offers excellent proportions for freestanding furniture and enjoys a pleasant outlook over the frontage. A second substantial bedroom (approximately 18 ft by 13 ft) benefits from built-in storage and access to nearby bathroom facilities, making it ideal as a guest suite. There are several further well-proportioned double bedrooms, each offering comfortable dimensions suitable for family members, guests or flexible use. These rooms range from approximately 10 ft to over 13 ft in width and are served by multiple bath/shower rooms, enhancing practicality for larger households. A separate study/home office provides a quiet working environment, ideally positioned away from the main living spaces, perfectly suited for remote working.

Outside

The property occupies a generous plot with a substantial block-paved driveway providing parking for numerous vehicles. The double garage offers further storage, workshop potential, or scope for integration into the main house (subject to consent). The rear garden provides a mature and private setting with established planting and lawned areas, offering clear potential for landscaping enhancement or extension (STPP).

With approximately 467 sq m (5,028 sq ft) of total accommodation including the garage, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a home of significant scale and versatility.
