6 bed country house for sale

Barn Close, Farnham Common, Buckinghamshire SL2

An excellent six bedroom detached house, peacefully situated on this quiet, private road just moments away from the village centre. This attractive family home has been cherished by the current owners for nearly 30 years, and will no doubt appeal to a wide audience.

An inviting entrance hall with high quality tiled flooring sets the tone and provides access to the first floor, guest cloakroom, living room, dining room, kitchen and snug. The living room is dual apsect and measures over 23' in length, with direct access to the garden and a feature fireplace as the focal point in the room. There is an opening through to the dining room, which is currently set up as a TV room, but could easily be used as a play room for the growing family.

The tiled floor from the hallway continues through to the kitchen/breakfast room, which is well-equipped with a range of units at base and eye level and granite worktops. A recently re-fitted utility room provides direct access to the garden and also to the double garage, whilst the front aspect snug would make an excellent study/home office.

Rising to the first floor there are six bedrooms, the largest of which enjoys a large front aspect window and a range of built-in wardrobes, plus a fully tiled five piece en-suite bathroom. There are two further bath/shower rooms on this floor, plus a separate cloakroom, ensuring the modern family is extremely well catered for.

Gardens and Grounds

To the front there is a generous front garden with walled and fenced boundaries, plus a gated driveway providing secure off-street parking for multiple vehicles.

The rear garden, which is deceptively large, has been primarily laid to lawn and features a substantial pool house complete with a large jacuzzi (6.7m x 3.6m) and shower room (which requires some renovation) plus an expansive stone patio providing ample space for al fresco dining and entertaining.

Location

The property is located within easy walking distance to Farnham Common, which offers a good range grocery shops, cafes and restaurants along with other amenities such as post office, pharmacy, hardware store and garage.

There is a direct walkway in front of the home that leads to the historic Burnham Beeches, offering scenic walks, open spaces and a café. The local infant and junior schools are well respected and there is an active Sports Club for rugby, cricket, lacrosse, squash, tennis and fitness.

There is Crossrail / Elizabeth Line into London Paddington and beyond accessible from Burnham or Slough stations. The M40 is within 2 miles, giving access to the M25 and M4, with Heathrow close by.

Buckinghamshire is renowned for its excellent choice and standard of schooling, being one of the few remaining counties that maintain a traditional grammar school system with Burnham Grammar School (for girls and boys), Beaconsfield High (for girls), The Royal Grammar School and John Hampden in High Wycombe (for boys), as well as top private schools including Wycombe Abbey, The Royal Masonic, Berkhampstead School, Harrow, Merchant Taylors and Eton.
