10 bed detached house for sale

Collinswood Road, Farnham Common, Buckinghamshire SL2

Prentice Wood is a wonderfully proportioned country house dating back 100 years. The house which has been well maintained and updated is as shown in the enclosed floor plans.

Prentice Wood is entered via the spacious entrance hall with two sets of stairs rising to the first floor. From the hall doors open to the living room with stunning fireplace and bay window overlooking the gardens as well as doors to the snug/garden room, the study with bay window and doors to the garden and the lounge. The lounge opens into the dining room which in turn is open to the large and very well fitted kitchen creating a very modern living feel. On the ground floor there is also a pantry, utility room, cloakroom and leisure area. The leisure area comprises changing rooms, shower room, cloaks, sauna and indoor swimming pool (now in need of some work).

The eight bedrooms and four bathrooms are arranged over the first and second floor.

Annexe:
Across the driveway from the main house you will find an exceptionally versatile outbuilding with huge potential. The space is currently set out with an entrance hall, a living room, a kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom, as well as a storeroom. This outbuilding would benefit from refurbishment throughout but offers an incoming purchaser an opportunity to create an ancillary space suitable to their needs.

An outstanding feature of the property the gardens and grounds extend to around 3.01 acres. Approached from the highway through electric gates a gravelled in and out driveway leads to the front of the house, the annexe and the outbuildings beyond. The gardens are delightful, with large lawned areas interspersed with pockets of woodland and mature shrubs and borders. There is a clearing in the tress hiding tennis court.

Prentice Wood is tucked away within delightful gardens and grounds hidden from the road. To the north Beaconsfield and Gerrards Cross are about four and six miles respectively.

The M40 (Junction 2) about two miles The M4 (Junction 6) about four miles Beaconsfield and Gerrards Cross both have mainline stations and rail services to Marylebone. To the south Slough station, serving Paddington and now the Elizabeth Line with direct trains to The City, is about five miles.
