Immaculately presented brick and flint cottage in a wonderful semi-rural setting.
Description
This beautifully converted brick and flint cottage enjoys a wonderful semi-rural location on the edge of the village of Speen, surrounded by countryside and woodland. The renovation has been undertaken with meticulous attention to detail, seamlessly blending the old and the new. The original cottage dates back to about 1860 and has been expertly extended, combining rustic, original features with contemporary design.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors, with an oak framed porch leading to the front door. The reception hall, with built-in cabinetry and decorative flooring, leads through to the superb kitchen/dining/family room, a stunning open plan sociable space. The kitchen itself is well appointed with quartz worktops complemented by integrated appliances. A large island unit incorporates a breakfast bar for informal dining. Wide bi-fold doors alongside a set of French doors extend the living space into the courtyard garden creating ideal indoor/outdoor entertaining space. The room affords ample space for a large dining table and seating area. A dual sided wood burning stove is shared with the adjacent snug, perfect as a quiet retreat. Beyond here is a vaulted sitting room, with a triangular gabled window framing leafy views. An adjacent playroom provides further reception space, cleverly incorporating a mezzanine level alongside bespoke built-in cabinetry. In addition is a fully fitted study, two guest cloakrooms and a utility/boiler room. There is underfloor heating throughout, operated by Heatmiser and a Lutron lighting system.
The property benefits from two staircases leading to the bedroom accommodation on the first floor. The principal bedroom features a superb dressing room, fully fitted with bespoke furniture and a luxurious bathroom. There are two further bedrooms, both enjoying built-in wardrobes and en suite shower rooms, all beautifully appointed. In addition is a laundry room and a family bathroom.
To the front electric gates open on to a gravelled driveway with parking for several vehicles. A wide brick terrace adjoins the side of the house providing a perfect spot for outside dining and relaxation. The rear garden is private and secluded, predominately laid to lawn and edged with a gravelled pathway. At the rear is a further entrance with vehicular access from the lane leading to the garage which offers excellent flexibility of use and could be converted into additional accommodation with the usual planning permissions.
Location
Ideally located in the pretty village of Speen with its local amenities including a village store. It is located a few miles south of Princes Risborough in the heart of the Chilterns.
The area is renowned for riding and walking in picturesque undulating countryside and both Princes Risborough and the larger town of High Wycombe offer excellent facilities and mainline train stations into London Marylebone.
Buckinghamshire is popular for its choice and standard of schooling and is one of the last counties to maintain the traditional grammar system. There are well regarded grammar schools in Aylesbury and High Wycombe for boys and girls. The village has both a well-regarded pre-school, Little Apples, and Speen C of E Infant School. Independent preparatory schools include Griffin House (Little Kimble), The Gateway (Great Missenden) Godstowe (High Wycombe) and Pipers Corner School (Great Kingshill).
