5 Bed Detached House For Sale

A handsome Arts & Crafts era family home and formally a village school, situated on a mature 1/3 acre plot and located in a secluded position close to Amersham town centre.


Description

A traditional Arts & Crafts family home and former school house located in one of Amersham’s most sought after residential locations. The property has been sympathetically extended and greatly improved to provide accommodation of approximately 3,500sqft, designed with family living at its heart.

The living space is both generous and adaptable with two former part vaulted classrooms now used as an open reception area separated by original internal concertina doors. The remainder of the living accommodation is ideal for modern family living with an open plan kitchen/dining room/family room overlooking the rear garden. There is a further reception currently used as a Tv./play room, good size utility room and ground floor shower room.

The main house is linked to a further double story annexe converted from the original garage. This clever ancillary space sits perfectly alongside the main living accommodation and comprises an open plan reception with a comprehensively fitted kitchen area and staircase leading to two double bedrooms with access back into the main house.

The remainder of the bedroom accommodation is arranged around a clever split level vaulted landing, with the principal bedroom enjoying an open plan dressing room with steps up to an en suite bathroom. The remaining two bedrooms are served by a remodelled family bath/shower room.

The property is situated on a mature plot approaching 1/3 acre and enjoys a pleasant South Westerly aspect. The gardens themselves are extensively landscaped with rows of well stocked flower beds which can be re-landscaped into formal lawned space if required. To the rear of the property is a large garden office, currently used as home studio but also ideal as a home gym, games room or similar.

The property is positioned back from the road and accessed over a vehicular access, providing both privacy and seclusion. Set behind electronically operated gates, the house itself is set well back on its plot allowing for ample driveway parking.
