Description
HEADLINE
A substantial five bedroom family home of around 3,694 sq ft, set in approximately 0.7 of an acre at the end of a private lane of just five homes, backing onto Chiltern woodland.
THE PROPERTY
Beechwood House occupies a position that is genuinely hard to find. It sits at the end of a private lane shared by only five homes, gated and screened, with 250 acres of woodland directly behind it that you can walk into from the garden and follow through to the Dashwood estate. You are in the Chiltern Hills, within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, surrounded by countryside and not overlooked, yet Marlow is around seven minutes away and the M40 about ten.
What makes it work day to day is space, and plenty of it. As well as the L-shaped living and dining room there is a separate sitting room and a huge open-plan kitchen diner, so there is somewhere for everyone to come together and somewhere to peel off and do their own thing. Five genuinely large bedrooms take the pressure out of busy family mornings, and with 0.7 of an acre outside, the children have room to play and the whole family has room to entertain. It is a house built for real family life, where everyone can be together or have their own corner, and where there is always space for friends.
The current owners and their children have loved living here, and by their own admission it will be a hard house to leave and a harder one to match. It has been well cared for and sensibly improved along the way, with the windows replaced throughout in 2021, the roofline renewed, the heating fully serviced and broadband running comfortably beyond 400 Mbps. It is freehold and offered with no onward chain.
GROUND FLOOR
A welcoming reception hall opens the house up, with the staircase rising to a galleried landing.
Living and dining room 9.37m x 8.36m (30'9 x 27'5). A substantial L-shaped room, open plan from the dining area through to the living space and triple aspect, with French doors and windows drawing the garden in on three sides. A cast iron wood burning stove sits in an inglenook fireplace, with easy room for family seating and a full dining table. It is the natural heart of the house.
Kitchen and breakfast room 7.55m x 5.28m (24'9 x 17'4). A huge open-plan kitchen diner and a real hub of the home, built around a large island with quartz surfaces, a wine cooler and an oak breakfast bar, with a full suite of Neff appliances and underfloor heating. Bi-fold doors open the room onto the terrace, so it works as well for a quiet family breakfast as it does for entertaining in summer.
Sitting room 6.59m x 4.55m (21'7 x 14'11). A second reception room with a dual aspect, ideal as a snug, a playroom or a quiet retreat away from the main house.
Gym or study 5.45m x 2.73m (17'11 x 8'11). A flexible room with its own door to the patio, suited to a home office or gym, with a staircase to a loft room above ready to finish as needed.
A utility room and separate cloakroom complete the ground floor.
FIRST FLOOR
Five double bedrooms open off a generous galleried landing, all carpeted in wool and each looking over garden or woodland.
Principal bedroom 8.38m x 4.57m (27'6 x 15'0). A substantial suite, the main window overlooking the rear garden and a run of fitted oak wardrobes to one wall. A walk-in wardrobe and a dressing room lead off, both looking over the front drive, together with a private en suite with a spa bath, a separate walk-in shower and a skylight. There is easily room for a super-king bed with a seating area beside it.
Bedroom two 4.58m x 3.33m (15'0 x 10'11). A generous double with a double aspect, looking over the side garden and the driveway. It has a large en suite with built-in wardrobe storage within the en suite
Bedroom three 4.84m x 4.38m (15'11 x 14'4). One of the largest bedrooms, easily able to take a king-size bed and currently arranged as a single, with a built-in wardrobe and a lovely outlook over the front gardens and driveway. Its en suite is cleverly arranged as a Jack and Jill, so it also serves as the family bathroom.
Bedroom four 4.47m x 3.44m (14'8 x 11'3). A well-proportioned double, currently used as a spare room, with its own en suite, a small walk-in wardrobe area, cream carpet and a dressing mirror.
Bedroom five 3.43m x 3.42m (11'3 x 11'3). The smallest of the five but still a good double, sitting between bedroom four and the principal suite and overlooking the front gardens, served by the family and Jack and Jill bathroom.
In all, four of the five bedrooms have en suite facilities, with bedroom three’s arranged as a Jack and Jill so it also serves as the family bathroom. The bathrooms are finished to a high standard, with spa baths, walk-in showers and natural light from above.
OUTSIDE
The south-facing grounds extend to around 0.7 of an acre, well planted with mature shrubs, roses and fruit trees, kept green by an irrigation system and backing directly onto the woodland behind. It is a proper family garden, with plenty of lawn for children to play and run, and room to breathe.
It is also set up for entertaining. A pergola with a retractable roof and side blinds lets you eat outside whatever the weather, there is a built-in outdoor kitchen with a gas barbecue, and a powered awning by the house that closes automatically when the wind gets up. A double-glazed summer house, greenhouse, water features and good storage complete the grounds. Electric gates open onto a sweeping drive with parking for up to fifteen cars and a double garage with power.
SPECIFICATION
The house has been brought up to date where it counts. A-rated double glazing was fitted throughout in 2021 and remains under warranty, and the roofline has been fully renewed, so the major work is done. Heating runs across two independent zones with underfloor heating to the kitchen and utility, broadband exceeds 400 Mbps with full fibre on the way, and there is a 7 kW EV charger on the drive. The property is alarmed and gated, on an unmetered Thames Water supply with private drainage. Prior consent also indicates scope to extend by up to 40 per cent, subject to the usual enquiries.
THE LOCATION
Spring Coppice is a quiet private lane on the edge of Lane End, within the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Green Belt, with woodland walks from the doorstep linking to the Dashwood estate. Lane End village covers day to day needs, Marlow is around seven minutes by car and High Wycombe is close by, with the M40 roughly ten minutes away and fast trains to London from High Wycombe and Maidenhead. The schooling is a strong draw, with the house in catchment for sought-after names including Sir William Borlase, the Royal Grammar School, John Hampden and Wycombe High, and the Chiltern villages and their country pubs, Turville among them, are all nearby.
