Huckenden Farm, Bolter End Lane, Buckinghamshire, HP14

Situated in a particularly lovely rural setting with superb views, this two-bedroom barn conversion has lovely gardens and a modern interior.

Description

This imaginative conversion of a former stable block has created an attractive and beautifully presented modern home, ideally suited for those looking to live away from the hustle and bustle of life while retaining excellent transport links to the local market towns and London.

There are views on all sides across the gardens to the surrounding countryside of the Chilterns, with excellent access to the local footpath network. The property was converted cleverly to provide a bright and spacious feel, and has been subject to a wealth of improvements since including a new kitchen, shower rooms and heating system. Internally the house is appointed to a very high standard, with a high vaulted ceiling in the main living space, modern bathrooms and a lovely open plan kitchen/family room.

The accommodation extends to 1297 sq ft and is arranged across a single floor, comprising a generous kitchen/dining room/sitting room, two good-size double bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room, and a further shower room. Outside there is a detached garage and workshop, and a shed.

Outside
The detached property sits within a good-size plot bordered by open countryside. The plot is mostly laid to lawn and enclosed by mature hedging and post and rail fencing. There is a large gravel driveway to the side and a paved patio to the front, with the rear also having a paved area for entertaining.

Location

The Stables is set in a beautiful farm development comprising a number of attractive homes, including the original farmhouse and converted barns and stables. The gated setting provides the ideal environment, being distinctly rural in feel yet with excellent security for those who may travel or are looking for a second home. The Stables is set to the rear of the development, behind a further private five-bar gate leading into the private gardens.

The pretty village of Wheeler End enjoys a semi- rural location yet within easy reach of both the M4 and M40 motorways with convenient access to London, Oxford and Heathrow Airport.

Rail links are also excellent, with mainline services from High Wycombe to London Marylebone and Marlow (via Maidenhead) to London Paddington. The Metropolitan line runs from Amersham. The opening of Crossrail (due 2021) will only enhance the region’s communications.

The pretty riverside towns of Marlow and Henley-on-Thames are a short distance with more extensive shopping facilities in High Wycombe, Windsor, and Reading. Wheeler End sits high in the Chiltern Hills, in a Designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with a vast network of footpaths and bridleways and country lanes ideal for walkers.
