North Road, Chesham Bois, Amersham, Buckinghamshire, HP6

A handsome Edwardian family home providing well presented & versatile accommodation, situated on a private, mature plot in one of Amersham's most desirable residential locations.

Description

Orchard House is a handsome Edwardian family home with an imposing traditional elevation. It has been enlarged and greatly improved to provide versatile accommodation in excess of 3,500sqft, arranged over three well planned and light filled floors. This characterful property combines the very best elements of the build period including generous ceiling heights and original detailing with a fine contemporary finish throughout.

The property is situated on a mature, extensively landscaped plot and positioned opposite the pleasant wooded backdrop of Chesham Bois Common in one of most sought after residential locations in Amersham.

The ground floor accommodation benefits from a highly adaptable layout accessed from a traditional entrance hall with beautiful stained glass feature door. To the front of the property there are two bay fronted reception rooms, both with original windows, which are currently used as a formal living room with feature wood burning stove and a comfortable study. From the living room double doors give access into the kitchen/breakfast room which overlooks the rear garden.

This wonderful open plan living space has been remodelled with a part vaulted ceiling and roof lantern which bathes the room in natural light alongside a full bank of door and windows overlooking the rear garden. The kitchen itself has been fitted with an extensive range of wall, base and full height larder units with a large matching island featuring a curved breakfast bar.

Located to the side of the kitchen are two further receptions positioned either side of a ground floor bathroom making them ideal as ancillary bedroom accommodation if required. There is a vaulted garage with mezzanine storage and both front and rear access. This is positioned next to one of these receptions and could be incorporated into additional living space to create a self-contained annex subject to planning.

A bright and airy first floor landing featuring doors out onto a pretty balcony gives access to the superb principal bedroom suite with walk through dressing room and en suite bathroom. A further generous second bedroom, currently being used as a first floor living room, enjoys double doors leading out onto a lovely decked roof garden. Four further good size bedrooms are located on the second floor and are served by a family bathroom.

The property is set well back on its plot allowing for ample parking over a large gravel driveway leading to the garage. The rear gardens have been extensively landscaped with care and attention to provide a private entertaining/dining area on a large secluded patio to the rear of the house.

The remaining gardens have been cleverly divided with an area of lawn flanked by a framed walkway bordered by well stocked beds of specimen plants. The gardens are screened by mature hedging and fencing.
