Fine Homes Property are proud to present this amazing opportunity to purchase a one of a kind family home in a fantastic convenient location being in tucked away in a beautiful village yet conveniently located with excellent transport links to Milton Keynes and Leighton Buzzard. The Stables is an immaculately presented five bedroom detached home with two en-suites, four reception rooms, a very large kitchen breakfast room, utility room (as big as many kitchens!) and downstairs cloakroom. The plot is an acre in size and accessed along a private driveway with electric gates opening onto the enormous gravel driveway with detached triple garage block (annexe potential) A viewing is essential of this breathtaking property to see its magnitude.

Introduction - A breath taking country retreat, surrounded by nearly an acre of impeccably landscaped grounds and endless countryside beyond. Inside, the original architecture remains very much in evidence, with a wealth of living space arranged across the expansive frontage.

If This Was Your Home... - You'll never tire of rolling up to the very end of your private turning, where wrought iron gates part and admit you to your vast private grounds. A sweeping gravelled driveway encircles a central expanse of lawn, leading right to your front door. The driveway is itself in turn surrounded by the rest of your expansive grounds, nearly an acre in all.

It's a diverse, expertly landscaped set of gardens, featuring sublime stretches of endlessly explorable lawn, artfully placed mature trees and shrubbery, elegant beds of flowers, rockeries, al fresco dining sitting below a pergola, a well, and many other inspired sparks of landscaping genius. It is practically your own private park!

Stepping up to the property itself, the broad frontage emphasises the architecture's equestrian heritage, as well as letting natural light flood through from front to back. Head inside under the stone porch and you're in your welcoming hallway, with original timber beams overhead and an exposed brick wall to your left.

Most striking of all is the broad spiral staircase rising immediately in front of you. Climbing around beautiful timber beams, with a chrome banister and surrounded by underlit exposed brick, this is a superb centrepiece, showcasing the property's elegant blend of modern style and vintage heritage

On your right - into the north wing - you have the kitchen. More vintage beams and exposed brick are in evidence here, with over 300 square feet of dual aspect space for cooking and dining. A combined chef's island and breakfast bar sit in the centre, with induction hob below a sleek extractor.

Countertops are jade Corian throughout, there's plenty of cream cabinets down the flanks, and honey blonde Karndean runs underfoot. As ever, the views are superb, with delightful views over your 'park'. A handy utility room sits off to one side, with more cabinets and counters, plus an imposing brick chimney breast and hearth - home to your boiler.

Head back to the hallway, past a sleek cloakroom, and the south wing houses your multiple reception rooms, all complete with more of those charming exposed brick walls and original timber beams. Continue past the handy study and your living room's an impressive 315 square feet, with twin bay windows framing panoramic views of your grounds.

Two brick archways lead off here to your dining and family rooms. Both are warm, welcoming spaces of around 180 square feet apiece, with the latter featuring an open exposed brick hearth with wood burner. Finally you come to your conservatory. The glazed vaulted roof stretches away above you, the perfect spot to enjoy the outdoors all year round.

It all makes for a generous, flexible suite of spaces, brimming with vintage style and character, and tailor-made for family gatherings and other special occasions.

Upstairs and, unusually, you have two potential principal bedrooms. At the end of the south wing (off to your right after you climb the spiral staircase) there's a 210 square foot double, with glorious garden views and a gleaming modern en suite with underfloor heating, twin vanity sinks, rainfall shower cubicle and a tub.

It seems like no contest until you step into the rearmost bedroom, positioned at the back of the property. In here you have window sets with dual aspect views, as well as a gorgeous, beamed, vaulted ceiling. It's quite a space, and the greatest evidence yet of the building's vintage heritage.

Returning to the staircase, you pass two more bedrooms, each with its own characterful, tranquil colour scheme, original beams and splendid views. Your family bathroom features a corner tub, rainfall shower and underfloor heating, while at the northernmost end there's bedroom five, finished in soft pastel green with a sleek en suite shower room with underfloor heating.

Your Neighbourhood - Should you choose to venture off your substantial estate, the modern metropolitan delights of Milton Keynes are around a ten minute drive. The Centre MK shopping centre features over 150 stores, cafes and restaurants, with the celebrated new city also offering parks, cinemas and the MK stadium.

If you're heading further afield, Leighton Buzzard station will get you to London Euston in thirty seven minutes, or to Manchester from Milton Keynes in just over an hour and a half. Alternatively, you can be speeding along the arterial M1 less than fifteen minutes after emerging from your driveway.

You also have plenty of excellent schools within easy reach, including seventeen rated 'Outstanding' by Ofsted, all less than five miles away.
