Description
SUMMARY
A spacious four double bedroom house, which has undergone complete modernisation, with a large frontage and double garage, and approaching 200ft rear garden with panoramic views.
DESCRIPTION
This detached house occupies an enviable position in the Buckinghamshire village of Slapton and enjoys a large plot and superb views across countryside towards the Whipsnade Lion. The property was built in the late 1960's and has recently undergone a comprehensive programme of refurbishment and modernisation inside and out. The windows have been replaced with quality uPVC double glazing and attractive cladding has been fitted to the front giving a contemporary feel. The house stands behind a sizeable front garden measuring approximately 75ft x 40ft, with a gated driveway providing extensive secure parking and leading to a double garage.

Inside, the house is light and airy with natural light flooding through large windows, which are typical of this era. The spacious hallway features quality wood flooring and stairs to the first floor along with a guest w/c. A glazed Oak door leads through to the kitchen dining room which has been fitted with a range of cabinets providing abundant storage, and incorporates various appliances including two electric ovens and a hob with extractor canopy, fridge freezer and dishwasher. French doors connect seamlessly to the outside space, opening directly onto the patio……perfect for sociable summer occasions. There is an adjoining utility room for the washing machine and tumble drier which provides a convenient route to the side for bins and recycling etc. The dual aspect sitting room runs the length of the house with a full height window giving a lovely view over the rear garden.
Upstairs continues to impress with four double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a sparate shower room, arranged around the landing. Three of the bedrooms are at the rear with stunning views over the garden and countryside beyond, with the famous 'Whipsnade Lion' clearly in view. The final bedroom, at the front connects to a dressing room which has potential to be partly converted to add an en-suite, or could be used as a study or fifth bedroom
Outside
It's the rear garden that really steals the show here though. Extending some 185ft or so and backing onto fields with countryside views, the garden has been beautifully maintained with well stocked shrub beds and large level lawn and a superb patio for entertaining. An archway in the hedging takes you through to an orchard area of the garden with various fruit trees. At the bottom of the garden, the final 45 feet or so is given to a productive vegetable garden with a green house, shed and raised beds.
