Snells Lane, Little Chalfont, Buckinghamshire, HP7

A handsome Grade II listed farmhouse located with a small farm estate of three individual properties including the original farmhouse, a barn conversion and a newly constructed Grange.

Description

The property is entered through a traditional Chapel style porch and into a welcoming half panelled reception hall with original fireplace and stairs leading down to a useful cellar. Accessed from here in a more traditional layout are a handy study which in turn leads through to a home cinema/games room. Adjacent to the cinema there is a lovely formal sitting room again with fireplace and a full height triple aspect bay window providing an abundance of natural light.

Spanning the remainder of the ground floor is an extraordinarily well designed part open plan living space which incorporates a spectacular kitchen/breakfast room alongside a dining room, family room and a separate sitting room. Cleverly sectioned by utilising the original beamed walls, this wonderful informal living space is ideal for modern living.

The kitchen area itself has been further enlarged to allow for a full bank of sliding doors and large recessed roof lantern. Matching this theme, the kitchen itself blends the very best of contemporary styling with a traditional design, comprising an extensive range of units incorporating built-in appliances and a central island with breakfast bar. Located next to the kitchen is a good size utility room.

The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive, combining a mixture of part vaulted bedroom spaces and generous room proportions. There are five double bedrooms all with character features including original fireplaces and exposed beams, which offer delightful views over the gardens.

There are two remodelled and well appointed bath and shower rooms located at either end of the house.

Snells Farm sits within mature gardens and grounds in excess of 1.25 acres. Set back well within its plot, the property projects an imposing first impression with traditional estate fencing bordering areas of lawn and a topiary lined gravel pathway leading to the house.

A sweeping driveway enters the property at the Western end of the plot and past a detached double garage with parking and large games room over before sweeping through the gardens to the side of the house where an additional parking area can be found.

To the rear of the house itself a wide patio provides a secluded entertaining space overlooking the expansive lawns, pretty duck pond and delightful sylvan backdrop.

Located next to the house is a refurbished former garage linked to the neighbouring property. The garage has been divided to allow for a ground floor gym with home office above.
