Walkwood End, Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, HP9

Detached residence tucked away in a highly sought-after Beaconsfield setting, offering excellent potential and a generous mature garden.


Description

Tucked away on one of Beaconsfield's most desirable private roads, Pyckles Piece occupies a remarkably private plot on the edge of Walkwood, with its mature gardens blending almost seamlessly into the woodland beyond. Built in 1961 and extended over the years, the property has remained in the same ownership since new and would now benefit from modernisation throughout, offering an opportunity to acquire a family home in an exceptional location, offering privacy, maturity and the chance to create something truly special in one of Beaconsfield's finest private roads. Of particular note, Beaconsfield station is just about a mile away, with fast trains to London Marylebone from 25 minutes.

The ground floor offers an excellent balance of living space, with the principal reception rooms enjoying attractive views over the garden. The dual-aspect sitting room is particularly light and spacious, overlooking the front and rear gardens with sliding doors opening on to the outside terrace. The dining room and separate music also enjoy delightful garden views, creating ideal spaces for everyday living. The kitchen/breakfast room is equipped with a range of units, worktops and integrated appliances, with plenty of space for a breakfast table. In addition, there is a practical utility room and a cloakroom.

The first floor comprises four well-proportioned bedrooms, all benefiting from built-in wardrobes. The principal bedroom suite features a dressing room and an en suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom and a separate WC.

The gardens are particularly special. Mature, secluded and wonderfully established, they provide an idyllic backdrop to the house and enjoy direct woodland boundaries to Walkwood. The garden is predominately laid to lawn with wide, well stocked flower beds providing seasonal interest. A patio adjoins the rear of the house offering the perfect spot for outside dining and entertaining. A magnificent oak tree provides a peaceful shady refuge during warmer months. To the front, a broad frontage and substantial driveway provide parking for numerous vehicles, complemented by a single garage and car port.
