4 bedroom detached house for sale

A charming detached 1950’s home set in superb gardens and ideally located on this highly regarded part of the Dukes Wood Estate. The well balanced accommodation includes four good sized double bedrooms and there is excellent scope for extension and/or development.

This really charming detached home retains many original features and represents an ideal opportunity to create a fabulous family home. The spacious entrance hall has a central staircase leading to the first floor and gives access to the main reception rooms. The large double aspect sitting room features leaded light windows to the front and side and enjoys as its focal point an attractive brick open grate fireplace. Double doors lead to a cosy sitting room with a full width range of book shelves and double windows and patio doors out onto the rear garden. The dining room is also well proportioned with leaded light windows overlooking the front garden. The kitchen enjoys lovely views over the rear garden and benefits from a walk in pantry and adjacent utility room. There is also a cloakroom on this floor. On the first floor a staircase separates to create two landings, each with two double bedrooms and a bathroom.

The gardens are a real feature of this home with a sweeping brick paviour driveway and adjacent lawn to the front and a large well screened garden at the back, laid mainly to lawn with shaped flower beds and borders and a large pavilion style summer house. There is also an attached garage with store room. The front of the property is also clad during the summer months in a beautiful wisteria.

This home built in the 1950’s and in its near original state represents an exciting development opportunity to modernise, extend or even perhaps for a more ambitious project, subject to planning consent. Leaded light windows feature in most of the rooms and a gas fired boiler serves radiators throughout. Television and telephone points are provided and an alarm system is installed.

From our office in Gerrards Cross, next to the Ethorpe Hotel, proceed south past the shops and at the A40 traffic lights turn left. On passing Saint James Church and with the common on your left hand side turn right into Dukes Wood Avenue following the road to the end and at the T junction turn right into Dukes Wood Drive, where this property can be found on the right hand side.
