A RARELY AVAILABLE opportunity to create two substantial bespoke country homes in a fabulous rural setting. In all about 0.41 acres.


Situation
Hillesden is a rural hamlet situated around four miles from the market town of Buckingham, where there are a good range of shopping and leisure facilities, a library, and dental and GP surgeries. A wider range of facilities can be found in Bicester (11 miles) and Milton Keynes (16.5 miles).

The area is well served for schools, with The Royal Latin Grammar School, Akeley Wood and Thornton College in and around Buckingham. Further afield are Stowe, Beachborough, Winchester House, Tudor Hall and Bloxham, plus the Oxford schools including The Dragon, St Edwards, Magdalen and Headington.

There are excellent communication links with good access onto the M40 motorway (Junction 10 or 9) approximately 6 and 9 miles away respectively. Mainline train services from Bicester to London Marylebone (approximately 65 minutes) and Milton Keynes to London Euston (approximately 45 minutes).

Description
Situated in a rural location, with fabulous rural views across open fields, the former grain store has Class Q permission for ‘conversion of an agricultural building into two houses’, granted by Buckinghamshire Council, on 6th April 2023, under application: 23/00448/COUAR.

The proposed grain store conversion offers two dwellings over two floors, measuring in all approximately 463.2 m2 (4,985 ft2) GIA, of flexible living accommodation, including an open plan kitchen/dining/living room, with snug/reception. There is also an office and laundry/cloakroom. The ground floor bedroom has an en suite, and there are two first floor bedrooms, both with en suites, and one with rural views looking south.

Once converted it offers plenty of scope to provide exceptional and unique family homes in a rural location. There may also be the potential to create one substantial single dwelling, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions.

There is provision for a garden of 380 m2 between the two dwellings.

Services
A metered mains water supply is available to the grain store. Electricity connection is in the form of a Temporary Building Supply which is in the process of being installed. Further details are available on request.

All other services are to be connected and arranged by any purchaser.

Tenure
The property is to be sold freehold with vacant possession.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
