5 bedroom detached house

Vancouver Lodge sits at the top of its large and exceptionally private plot enjoying wonderful views.

The house, which is believed to date back to the 18th century, has accommodation set over three floors. The principal bedroom benefits from a dressing room and en suite, whilst there are four further bedrooms and two additional bathrooms. Entered through a generous entrance hall with ornate floor tiles, the ground floor features two formal reception rooms, each with decorative fireplaces, original wood panelling, and bay windows. There is also a formal dining room and generous kitchen and breakfast room.

There is a high quality detached annexe with a large open plan studio or living space on the ground floor with a mezzanine bedroom area on the first.

The partly walled gardens are laid to lawn with mature trees, shrubs and hedging throughout and there is a natural pond. A long driveway approaches the house with space to park several cars.

Vancouver Lodge is located at the edge of Dadford, a quiet hamlet northwest of Buckingham and bordering the Stowe estate. It is also well placed for access to Silverstone.

There are trains to Euston station from Milton Keynes or to Marylebone via Bicester. Access to London by road is also easy, with nearby junction 10 providing access to the M40. Alternatively, there is nearby access to the M1.

Local schools include Stowe, Akeley Wood, Swanbourne House, the Royal Latin School in Buckingham, Beachborough, Winchester House, and Thornton Girls School. Oxford schools are also within reach, including Lynehams, The Dragon School, Oxford High School, Ashfold Preparatory School and St Edward's.
