Gardens and grounds
Lower Brook End is beautifully positioned in about 2.75 acres. The property is approached via a sweeping gravel driveway, winding through established gardens to a large turning area in front of the house. The gardens for the most part are formal lawned sections, with established shrub borders and wonderful specimen trees. Boundaries on all sides are made up of mainly hawthorn hedgerows, plus some high laurel screening. To the rear of the gardens there is a well-presented tennis court as well as a pond.
There is a wonderful walled garden to the south of the property. The gardens are part-terraced, part laid to grass, with a wonderful, central ornamental feature. The terraced section benefits from the shelter of a large pergola and is linked to the outside kitchen, perfect for outdoor entertaining.
Lower Brook End is well-located in the peaceful hamlet of Littleworth Common on the Buckingahamshire/Berkshire border adjacent to the historic Burnham Beeches. The hamlet boasts two excellent country public houses (The Blackwood Arms and The Jolly Woodman), a thatched primary school and a brick and flint village church built in
1866. From here, communications are excellent for Central London, Oxford and the West Country, with regular rail connections, both to London Paddington from nearby Burnham and from Beaconsfield to London Marylebone.
The M40 (J2) is approximately 2½ miles away and the M4 (J7), approximately 4 miles away. Both are within easy reach giving access to the further motorway network. These junctions are conveniently located for the M25 and London Heathrow Airport. Everyday amenities can be found nearby in Beaconsfield or Burnham, while more comprehensive shopping facilities are available in either Maidenhead or Windsor. The unspoilt position, in land designated as Greenbelt, offers many scenic walks, cycle and bridle paths. Comprehensive sport and leisure facilities are found at nearby Cliveden House and Stoke Park. There are also a number of golf courses in the area.
