Description

Hill Farm Bungalow
Hill Farm Bungalow is a detached property, situated at the heart of Hill Farm with far reaching views over the farmland. The property comprises a sitting room, dining room, kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom and potential for an integral annexe with further kitchen/living area, bedroom and bathroom. The property also has a garage and parking, downstairs W/C and stores with a rear access onto the garden. Set in a substantial garden, the property offers the potential to create a really good spacious family home.

Under decision CH/2015/2393/EU, Buckinghamshire Council approved an application for “Certificate of Lawfulness for an existing use relating to the residential use of the property as a single dwellinghouse without complying with agricultural occupancy, condition 1 of planning permission C/57/580” in 2016. This relates to the Agricultural Occupancy Condition on the bungalow when it was built.

Hill Farm Cottage
A cottage with a mature garden and views over the farmland. Hill Farm Cottage comprises an entrance hall, L-shaped kitchen, sitting room and downstairs bathroom, and two double bedrooms. The property is in need of complete renovation and is not currently occupied.

Farm Buildings
To the rear of the Bungalow and Cottage are a range of traditional farm buildings set around a courtyard which offer potential for alternative uses or income generation subject to securing the necessary planning consent. The traditional buildings are predominantly of red brick construction with timber cladding under clay tile roofs, forming a courtyard with concrete hardstanding to the south.

Historically used as part of a beef cattle enterprise, the modern buildings include one large cattle shed, three smaller adjoining cattle sheds, Straw Shed and Dutch Barn.

Land
The pasture is split into good sized fields bordered by mature hedgerows, with access from the driveway up to Hill Farm.
