Property description
An 18th-century, four bedroom character house, set in an elevated position in the Chiltern Hills with far reaching countryside views, a landscaped garden and a double garage.
The original house is thought to be Georgian and has received many additions and alterations over the years. The brick and flint facade and raised ceilings are believed to have been added during The Rothschild family's occupancy in the late 1800s, when the house was possibly used as a hunting lodge. The house was successfully divided into three properties in the 1970s with No 2 occupying the middle section and remaining largely as it was since the conversion. The accommodation extends to almost 3,000 sq. ft. including two large cellars which have the potential to be converted into additional accommodation if required. There are two reception rooms, a study, a kitchen/breakfast room, a cloakroom, four double bedrooms (one en suite) and a bathroom. Walk-in bay windows with elongated panes in the rear elevation provide natural light and frame the countryside views from the principal bedroom suite and the two reception rooms.
Kitchen/Breakfast Room
There is a range of fitted wall and base units and integrated appliances including a double oven, a gas hob and a ceramic sink unit with a mixer tap. There is a walk-in larder and space and plumbing for a dishwasher and a fridge/freezer, as well as space for a breakfast table and chairs seating four.
Outside
There is a loose stone driveway shared between the three houses leading to the double garage. The rear garden has a terrace connecting the house with access to the cellars and maximising the distant country views. Steps descend to a lawn with mature trees, hedging and flower borders, as well as to a shed and a greenhouse.
Situation and Schooling
There is a bus service from Lacey Green (1 mile) to Princes Risborough which has shops and restaurants. In Lacey Green there are The Black Horse public house, a village hall, and a Church of England primary school (Ofsted rated Good). The property is in catchment for grammar schools in Aylesbury and High Wycombe, and local private schools include Griffin House, The Gateway, Godstowe Preparatory School, and Pipers Corner School.
