Description: - Stoneleigh is an attractive and imposing double-fronted mainly Victorian house with earlier origins and later additions. It has been the subject of significant upgrading and remodelling works in recent years and this work has created a spacious and characterful family home with some attractive period features including exposed timber framework. There is a gated driveway alongside the house that provides off-road parking and to the rear is a delightful south-east facing walled garden.
Of particular note is the substantial and well equipped family kitchen/dining room that occupies the centre of the house. This room leads into a characterful family/garden room with vaulted roof, fireplace with solid fuel stove and French doors opening into the garden. The sitting room has twin bay windows, fitted book and display units, an oak boarded floor and an open fireplace. Of note too is the large entrance hall with Victorian tiled floor. There are three double bedrooms and a single bedroom on the first floor including the master bedroom which has an en-suite shower room with walk-in wardrobe alongside.
Watlington - Watlington is reputedly England's smallest town with its origins dating from the 6th century. The town has a range of sports facilities that embrace football and cricket as well as tennis, squash and bowls. There are good local shops including a first class butcher and delicatessen and some excellent restaurants and pubs. Watlington Primary school and Rainbow Corner day nursery and pre-school have an 'outstanding' ofsted rating and senior education is provided by the well-regarded Icknield Community College. The Chiltern Hills rise above the town and offer some of the finest landscapes in south-east England. There is much on offer here for outdoor enthusiasts, cyclists and walkers as The Icknield Way (Ridgeway National Trail) passes close to the town. Watlington is also the heartland of the re-introduced Red Kite that now soar above the town's roof tops.
Outside: - Double wooden gates give access to the driveway where there is parking for two to three vehicles. A gate at the rear of the driveway leads into the walled garden.

A paved patio extends from the rear of the house with steps up to an expanse of lawn with a brick pathway and planted borders with a variety of plants, shrubs and climbing plants. A mature Yew tree stands at the end of the garden where a solid wood arched doorway in the wall of the garden leads out to a public footpath providing rear pedestrian access.
