Description
Longmead is a four bedroom detached family home which has been finished to a high standard and is located on the edge of the popular Chiltern village of Stoke Row. The property was originally built in c.1970’s and has since been sympathetically extended to improve the layout for modern-day living. The plot is generous and sits just under c.0.35 acres with a beautiful, south-facing garden.
Upon entering, the hallway leads to a spacious sitting room which is ideal for the family and the centerpiece is an open fireplace with log store. An open-plan kitchen/dining room is the heart of the home and provides a great area to entertain. The back of the house takes advantage of the south-facing aspect with bi-folding doors and a number of oak-framed windows to give a feel of indoor/outdoor living and a great view of the rear garden.
The kitchen is centered around the sociable breakfast bar and has an abundance of storage with neutral base units and is finished with a brick-tiled splashback. A separate pantry is included and a utility provides a practical space for all laundry including cupboards, sink and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer with a side access to the front and rear of the house. The ground floor is completed with two separate working areas, with one having a potential use as a family room sitting off the dining area with solid oak glass-framed doors. The second study leads to a ground-floor bedroom and a separate shower room which could be ideal for multi-generational living.
On the first floor are three large double bedrooms and two bathrooms. The principal bedroom is a particular feature with high ceilings and great scale. The bedroom has integrated wardrobes, exposed oak beam work and a modern en-suite shower room. Bedroom three originally used to be split into two bedrooms and this would be possible if a fifth bedroom is necessary. It also leads to a large store area.
Outside
The property is set back from the road and is accessed via a gravel driveway which provides ample parking for multiple vehicles. A double garage sits in the corner of the driveway for further vehicles and has a first-floor store area which could be converted subject to the necessary planning consents.
The south-facing rear garden is exquisite and has many different areas and features for the owners to enjoy. It enjoys a sense of peacefulness & seclusion whilst only being within close proximity to the village centre. A patio sits directly off the dining area for seating in the summer months and leads to a number of outbuildings including a greenhouse, summerhouse, store and log store.
The rest of the garden is surrounded by mature trees, fruit trees, beautiful flower beds, wildflower meadow and a small water-feature. There is also plenty of lawn area to enjoy and a separate vegetable patch to grow your own produce.
