Warren Road, Little Horwood, Milton Keynes, MK17

Set on the original drive to the Little Horwood Manor House, the gatehouse offers a beautiful blend of tradition and modern living. Built in 1939, it was requisitioned in the Second World War to be utilised as an out-station to Bletchley Park. It has since been modernised by the current owners with retained period features throughout.

This home is a brilliant opportunity for anyone with aspirations to create their dream equestrian home all within a sensible budget.

With a ménage and four stables added previously, although needing work, it has the initial foundations in place. With Addington equestrian centre nearby as well as multiple local venues, it’s an ideal location for any keen competitor.

You enter the home through a private courtyard, directly off its own separate driveway to the original gatehouse with parking for up to four cars.

The lounge offers the ultimate evening room, perfect to retire to. With ample space for all your furniture, a storage cupboard, and traditional brick fireplace, conveniently placed in the corner of the room to ensure your TV can be centralised for ease. With original single pane windows, the sellers have thoughtfully added an additional screen to ensure heat is kept economically.

The kitchen offers a modern and practical layout. Highlighted by the current large six seater table. The kitchen features quartz worktops, double oven, wine fridge, butler sink and even a traditional pantry. There is also underfloor heating throughout the kitchen / diner.

Originally designed with a single ground-floor bathroom, the house has evolved gracefully over time, with a recently renovated bathroom including a double shower downstairs.

Today, the principal bedroom enjoys a beautifully recently renovated en suite, offering the rare pleasure of relaxing in the bath while overlooking the acres beyond. The principal bedroom has more than enough space for a king sized bed, enabled by the built in wardrobes, which utilise the space effectively

Bedroom three would make a perfect young children’s room. Located next door to the principal, this room also benefits from the view of the paddocks and having space for a double bed if needed.

Bedroom four could fit a double bed, however we believe it would be best suited to fit a single bed comfortably.

Bedroom two is currently set up as a spacious guest bedroom, but this could easily suit an older child due to the size and being positioned at the back of the home with views of the garden.

One of our favourite features of the home is that the size of the unexpected equestrian land doesn’t take away from the generous 280ft garden, meaning that there is no compromise on space for your children or horses.

The garden has a large patio, with more than enough space for your garden furniture and barbecue, ideal for hosting friends & family over in the warmer months.

With so much outdoor space, the way you utilise it can grow alongside your family, meaning you can really put down your roots to make it a long term home.

Most parents hope for one superb school nearby, and one of the reasons it is such a popular place to live is that you are spoilt for choice on the educational institutions such as Swanbourne House School, Thornton College for girls and the Royal Latin Grammar school in Buckingham.

Transport links are at a premium with the A421 providing easy access to Buckingham and Milton Keynes, with further travel links available via the West Coast mainline into Manchester and London. The impending opening of the East West railway between Bletchley and Oxford adds further appeal to the area, especially as a new station is opening in nearby Winslow.

It’s really easy to lean into the village life with facilities like Mursley farm shop, offering local produce, as well as The Shoulder of Mutton pub, which is highly popular with nearby locals and carries a great atmosphere.
