Nairdwood Lane, Prestwood, HP16

Set back from the lane, the entrance hall opens to a spacious kitchen/breakfast room which has been recently extended making this a good space for informal meals and supper parties. The Shaker units have natural stone worktops, carousel corner cabinets and integrated appliances include a Neff double oven and hob, Bosch microwave and dishwasher as well as a Siemens fridge and freezer. A side door provides access to the gardens at the rear and there is a spacious cupboard which serves as a pantry and useful storage space. The three reception rooms are located towards the rear of the house and comprise the sitting room with a Stovax multi-fuel-burning stove, the dining room/study, which is currently being used as a second sitting room, and the conservatory, spanning the width of the house. This is a lovely spot, summer and winter alike thanks to underfloor heating and Thomas Sanderson blinds which prevent heat loss in the winter and keep it cool in the summer. The cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.
Rising to the first floor past an attractive arch window on the landing, the semi-galleried landing opens to four double bedrooms. Lovely views are offered from the principal bedroom across the garden and fields beyond. Wardrobes and a chest of drawers are fitted and there is an en suite shower room with an Aqualisa electric shower and heated towel rail. Two of the other bedrooms have built-in furniture and one of them has an alcove with space for a single mattress; great fun for childrens' sleepovers. The fourth bedroom currently serves as a two-person study. Additionally, there is family bathroom and a loft with lighting accessed via a pull-down ladder.

Outside

There is parking space for three vehicles in front of the house as well as an integrated garage which is plumbed and offers a convenient laundry/utility area. A gate to the right of the house opens to a path which passes two storage/garden sheds and leads to the delightful gardens at the rear. They provide plenty of interest with a stretch of lawn on one side and a path running alongside an espaliered pear tree and bordering the koi carp pond in the shade of a yucca plant. There are raised beds and a "play area" which is well suited to outdoor dining. An alternative option for al fresco dining is the attractive, honeysuckle-clad pergola where there is electric lighting. Cherished plantings include a colourful acer, jasmine and rose bushes.

Situation

Located in a sought-after lane on the edge of the village, the property enjoys access to numerous country walks through open fields and woodland. The Post Office, shops, schools and a doctors’ surgery are all under a mile away. Great Missenden (1.5 mile away) provides specialised shopping, a supermarket and a main line station to London Marylebone (43 minutes – fast train) and an 18-court tennis club. The area benefits from a wealth of popular pubs, restaurants, farm shops and highly regarded private and state schools (including grammar), details of which may be obtained from the local authority.
