Description

Available for the first time by the Oxford Diocese, this detached residence is situated within impressive wrap-around gardens of 1.63 acres, offers plenty of scope. Formerly the Bishop's residence, the property offers excellent accommodation over two floors with a staircase to the second floor loft.
Many rooms offer delightful views across the Misbourne valley and the gardens are a haven for wildlife. The house is believed to have been built in the 1920s and enjoys a wealth of character features including high ceilings, open fire places and generously proportioned rooms. There was also ancillary office space to the rear which could easily be incorporated into the main house. The opportunity to add significant value to the property is obvious when you view the property.

Outside

Enjoying an in-out carriage driveway, from one of Great Missenden's most sought-after tree lined private roads, there is a gravel driveway which extends to the left of the property towards a spacious parking area in front of the double garage.
With a exceptionally wide plot totalling 1.63 acres, this is one of the largest on the road with the gardens offering a generous amount of outside space. This consists of park-like grounds studded with mature trees, a paved terrace surrounded by established borders, an orchard and a kitchen garden. In addition there is an air raid shelter which offers great curiosity potential as a children's den or wine cellar.

Situation

Located in one of the village's most sought-after roads, the property is just under half a mile from the centre of Great Missenden which offers an extensive range of shops, a supermarket, pubs and restaurants (such as The Nag's Head and Fan Fan Pizzeria), as well as The Roald Dahl Museum and a thriving 20-court tennis club which includes two padel courts.
There is nearby access to an extensive network of walking territory through open fields and woodland whilst the mainline station in the village (0.4 miles distant) provides a London Marylebone service in approximately 46 minutes (fast train). Heathrow Airport is just 24.4 miles away.
Buckinghamshire is renowned for its state and private education. The property is close to highly regarded educational establishments and is within the catchment area for grammar schools. Details may be obtained from the local authority.
