Property description

A Victorian four bedroom detached farmhouse set in approximately 2.11 acres of gardens and paddock with open country views in the popular village of Wotton Underwood.

The house has approximately 2,400 sq. ft. of light, versatile accommodation and can be entered either through the formal front door into a hallway or from the parking courtyard into a rear lobby with a cloakroom. The ground floor also has four reception rooms, a garden room, a kitchen/breakfast room with an Aga and walk-in pantry, a utility room, and a wine cellar beneath the study. On the first floor there are four bedrooms, an en suite shower room, and a family bathroom and a separate WC. The property can be accessed from two gated entrances and a sweeping driveway leads to a courtyard which provides ample parking and gives access to the house, garaging and outbuildings which provide three useful storerooms. There are formal landscaped gardens, areas for growing vegetables and an adjoining fenced paddock.

Ground Floor

Both the dual aspect sitting room and the family room have feature fireplaces. The family room opens into a recently constructed garden room with views of the grounds and open countryside. The kitchen/breakfast room is the hub of the home and has an Aga, a pantry and utility room. From the formal dining room, a door leads to the study which has an external door to the courtyard allowing business to be conducted privately away from the family.

First Floor

The principal bedroom is dual aspect with views towards the Chiltern Hills. It has built-in corner wardrobes and an en suite shower room. Bedrooms two, three and four are all double rooms, and all have a range of built in wardrobes. These bedrooms share a family bathroom which has a free standing roll top bath, separate shower and washbasin, with a WC in a separate room.

Outside

The landscaped gardens are a particular feature of the property and have a variety of mature trees and shrubs including fruit trees as well as several vegetable patches and a greenhouse. Doors from the garden room and kitchen lead to a large blocked paved terrace for al fresco entertaining. The property is surrounded by picturesque countryside with an extensive network of footpaths and bridleways.

Agents Note

There has been historic subsidence affecting the former carport and conservatory which has been remedied by replacing both structures. Specialist buildings insurance may be required to cover the property.
