Property description

A modern, brick and flint, detached house in a rural, Chilterns village setting with landscaped wrap around gardens, a driveway and a garage.

The property forms part of a small development of just four traditionally designed bespoke houses, built to a high specification in 2018/19 and surrounded by Hampden Estate woodland and countryside. The current owners have made many stylistic and practical enhancements including herringbone Amtico flooring on the ground floor, Sanderson window shutters throughout the property, a fully refitted en suite bathroom including a shower for the principal bedroom, a log burner in the sitting room and bespoke fitted bookshelves and wardrobes. The wrap around gardens have been landscaped and are mostly laid to lawn with well stocked flower beds. The property gives direct access to a network of rural footpaths, which navigate The Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Hampden Arms public house and village common are also within walking distance.

Additional Specification

There is LED lighting throughout the house, an air source heat pump with time and temperature zone controls and high performance double glazed windows and doors. In the kitchen area, there is a breakfast island comfortably seating four, quartz work surfaces and retiled areas as well as integrated appliances. A partially converted garage, with a power supply and lighting, is currently used as a gym.

Outside

The property is approached by a gravel drive leading to the garage. The 0.18 acres of gardens are enclosed by post and rail and panel fencing, with a patio seating/entertainment area to the rear as well as a shed and a door to the gym section of the garage. There are open vistas of the surrounding woodland to all sides.

Situation and Schooling

The Hampden Estate is the original home of the Earls of Buckinghamshire and straddles 1,000 acres of parkland and woodland in the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Great Hampden village has a church, a public house, a community hall and cricket ground. The property is in catchment for Speen C of E School (Ofsted rated Good) and various nearby grammar schools.
