Long Park Close, Amersham, Buckinghamshire, HP6

An attractive detached family home with a striking sylvan backdrop, in a small cul de sac tucked away off Long Park, conveniently located from Amersham town centre.

Description

An attractive detached family home which has been enlarged and greatly improved throughout with fine contemporary styling, situated on a generous plot of about 0.4 acre and enjoying a striking sylvan backdrop. Aptly named Trees, the property has been cleverly designed to maximum both light and space whilst thoughtfully bringing together the very best elements of the setting by incorporating large sections of glass and open plan living areas which perfectly blend the outside with internal living spaces.

The property has many key features, one of which is the centrally positioned and L-shaped entrance hall with double height feature window and open staircase, which allows for a wonderful first impression. A ground floor WC and utility room leading to the garage are accessed from here. The living accommodation is divided into two sections, comprising both formal receptions and informal open plan living spaces.

To one side of the hallway there is a spectacular open plan kitchen/dining room. Enlarged and remodelled, this superb informal family area features a bespoke Poggen Pohl kitchen incorporating an extensive range of wall, base and full height units with clever “pocket” doors which slide away to reveal a range of Miele appliances. Appliances include twin ovens (one with microwave), a warming drawer, separate full height fridge and freezers, induction hob and dishwasher. The kitchen also has a matching island with Champagne sink and a wood block breakfast bar.

The dining area overlooks the rear garden with a bank of sliding doors opening out on to a raised terrace, perfect for outside entertaining. Adjacent to the kitchen is a family room/study with full height picture window which again overlooks the garden.

Located on the other side of the hallway is a further reception, currently used as a formal living room with roof light and sliding patio doors, but also has the benefit of a kitchenette having previously been designed as a potential annexe space.

The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive, with five generous double bedrooms accessed from two separate staircases, four of which are arranged around a lovely vaulted landing. The double aspect principal bedroom is part vaulted, with sliding doors opening on to a Juliet style balcony. Accessed from the bedroom is a fitted dressing room and well-appointed en suite shower room.

There are three further bedrooms on this side of the house served by a remodelled and well-appointed family bathroom. A further secondary staircase leads to a double bedroom with en suite shower room and a potential further bedroom or study.

The property is situated on a mature plot approaching 0.4 acre backing on to woodland. Sitting in an elevated position, the house enjoys a wonderful vista to the rear with wide gardens laid to lawn which gently lead down into a private area of woodland.

A raised terrace wraps around the rear of the house providing seating areas from which to enjoy the view, and with steps down a further secluded decked seating area. Within the rear garden there is a summer house which is ideal as a home office, studio, gym or similar.

To the front of the property a block paved driveway provides ample parking and gives access to the double garages.
