Nightingales Lane, Chalfont St. Giles HP8

An Exceptional Country Residence on Nightingales Lane, Chalfont St Giles.

Tucked away behind electric gates on one of Chalfont St Giles’ most prestigious lanes, this remarkable country home offers an unrivalled lifestyle of comfort, character, and charm. Set within beautifully landscaped and entirely private grounds measuring approximately 1.16 of an acre, the property delivers 5757 sq ft of versatile accommodation – ideal for growing families, multigenerational living, or those seeking a substantial home with excellent entertaining space, inside and out.

From the moment you arrive, the sweeping gravel driveway and handsome façade set the tone for what lies within. A solid oak front door opens into a striking double-height reception hall, flooded with natural light and finished with warm wood floors. Every room in this home has been thoughtfully designed to blend traditional elegance with modern convenience.

The main reception room, with its grand inglenook fireplace and triple-aspect views, is the perfect place to unwind in winter, while the adjoining dining room – complete with stone fireplace, window seat, and garden access – makes for an exceptional entertaining space. A further selection of reception areas, including a snug, family room, gym, and a home office, offer flexible use for work, rest or play.

At the heart of the home lies a beautifully appointed kitchen and orangery – a true showstopper. Bathed in natural light, the space features granite worktops, extensive cabinetry, a large central island with breakfast bar, larder cupboards, and room for a range of appliances. The orangery seamlessly connects the indoors with the outdoors, offering ample space for dining and everyday family living, all while enjoying glorious views over the garden.

There are two utility rooms for added convenience – one with external access, ideal as a boot room for muddy wellies or four-legged friends.

Upstairs, the principal suite is a peaceful sanctuary, complete with a bay window overlooking the gardens, extensive wardrobes, a luxurious en suite with walk-in shower, jacuzzi-style bath, and twin basins, plus a private nursery or dressing room. In total, there are eight bedrooms, four of which benefit from en suite bathrooms, while the remaining rooms are served by a spacious and well-appointed family bathroom.

Outside, the gardens are a true highlight.
Thoughtfully divided into four distinct zones, they cater for every season and every member of the family. The formal garden is perfect for summer entertaining, with a large terrace, veranda, mature trees, and established borders. Follow the meandering pathway to discover a children’s play area, a fully enclosed swimming pool with its own pool house (complete with changing room and WC), and a productive kitchen garden with a greenhouse, potting shed, and chicken run.

To the front, a triple garage with loft storage and a large driveway ensures ample parking and practical storage solutions.

This is a home where memories are made – from garden parties by the pool, to family dinners in the orangery, to peaceful evenings curled up by the fire. Properties of this calibre on Nightingales Lane rarely come to market.
