4 bedroom detached house for sale

The Highlands is approached from Chiltern Hill across a generous gravelled driveway leading to the front of the house. The layout of this extensive home is as shown on the enclosed floor plans, but of particular note is the spacious and versatile feel of the ground floor accommodation.

The welcoming reception hall leads to the large kitchen/dining/family room - the hub of the house, which in turn leads to the drawing room, utility and boot room. Also approached through the reception hall is the music room opening in turn into the sitting room, with study and gym beyond. There are two sets of double doors leading to the rear gardens and the study, sitting room, music room and kitchen; all have wonderful southerly views over the gardens and beyond.

The first floor is made of the large principal bedroom with dressing room and en suite bathroom. There is a good sized guest bedroom with en suite, two further bedrooms and and a family bathroom.

To the front of the house, the gardens and gravelled driveway are well screened from the road by mature and established hedges and trees.

To the rear the house has a southerly aspect with a large area of decking immediately adjacent to the house, partially covered by a mature grapevine and pergola- a delightful sitting and entertaining area. There is a further paved terrace, with brick built bbq and a pond with water feature.

Beyond the terraces level lawns extend to the end of the garden with numerous specimen trees and bushes including a large oak with tree house. There are two garden sheds with power and light.

An outstanding feature of the gardens are the wonderful views over the adjoining countryside with woodland beyond.
