High Street, North Marston, Buckingham

Dating back to 1875, this fabulous Victorian home retains many charming period features, with high ceilings and elegant sash windows throughout, which flood the house with light. 'The Old Tailors' looks out on the village green and many other stunning properties in this conservation area. Across the green is The Pilgrim, an award-winning Michelin rated village pub serving high quality food and drink, with a lovely big garden and ample parking to the rear.

This generous south-west facing two-bedroom property is situated in the sought-after village of North Marston, which boasts a primary school, nursery, fantastic community run shop, village hall, church, playground, recreation ground and playing field with nature trail and scout hut.

On entering the house, you find yourself in a bright, spacious kitchen with huge sash windows and a quarry tile floor. To the right is the living room with a high ceiling (9 ft) and a large fireplace with log burner, perfect for relaxing in the evenings.

Leading up from the kitchen the stairs take you to a good-sized landing where you find two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The well-proportioned master bedroom, situated at the front of the property, has huge double aspect windows offering idyllic views over the village green and beyond to rolling green hills. The second bedroom has a sunny aspect, and can be used as an office, nursery, or second bedroom.

North Marston is Britain’s most foot pathed village, providing many walks and adventures through the surrounding countryside. In the 14th Century, the village became one of the most important places in the country for religious pilgrimage, being visited by more pilgrims than any other site aside from Canterbury and Walsingham.

Direct trains to London run from Aylesbury Vale Parkway (7.2 miles), Leighton Buzzard (12.3) and Milton Keynes (14.9 miles). The market town of Winslow is only 3.5 miles away and is soon to benefit from the eagerly awaited East West Rail line linking Oxford, Milton Keynes and Cambridge.
