Why buy this home?
Offered for sale for the first time since being built by the current owners in 1983, this impressive property sits on a secluded, private plot and is self-sufficient.
With an understated entrance, it is easy to drive right passed the electric gates that lead to this property. However, once you start driving down the private lane, the grandeur of the plot becomes immediately apparent. The total of approximately 3 acres is divided into an extremely generous front 'garden', the house itself and a side field/paddock.
The front 'garden' sits to the west of the private lane. It is sheltered from the road from tall trees and could be utilised in a multitude of ways. There is a parking bay for four cars before you approach the main house which also has a gate into the front 'garden'. Just before the house is small wooded area which acts as a further sound barrier and emphasises the rural setting of this home.
The front of the house can be entered through a glass porch, or the you could use the rear entrance which takes you into a small hallway to remove shoes before entering the kitchen/diner. Due to its modern layout, the kitchen/diner is inevitably where you would spend most of your time when living at Roslyn. Perfect for budding chefs and bakers, the kitchen area has ample worktop space and an impressive Rangemaster cooker. A breakfast bar separates the dining area which is the perfect place for an informal table where you can catch up over a cup of tea after a long walk around the surrounding countryside.
Off one side of the dining area is a large conservatory; the perfect place to spend summer evenings. Larger than most living rooms, it can easily fit enough furniture to house the whole family and the tiled floor is sure to be a hit with furry friends. To the other side of the kitchen's dining area is the formal dining room. Due to the double doors that open up, the cook of the family can still feel involved with guests whilst they are sat at the dining table. Off the dining room is the drawing room which provides a formal space to retire to after dinner to continue the conversation or have a nightcap. Sliding doors open up to a patio area which is separated to the front 'garden' by the wooded area, creating a private, scenic seating area.
Thanks to the drawing room, the living room can be a private space for the owners to relax. Opposite the living room is a study, and downstairs is completed by a WC with under stairs storage.
Upstairs, the master bedroom rightly commands one side of the home and benefits from the sloped roofline creating a naturally cosy space. There is ample space for storage as shown by the currant owners having three double wardrobes, two chest of drawers and a dressing table. The five-piece ensuite includes a shower cubicle and proper jacuzzi bath which adds a little luxury to this impressive space.
The second bedroom is at the opposite end of the house, providing privacy for an older child or guests. They also benefit from stunning views over the fields to the east, as well as fitted wardrobes. Both bedroom three and four are further double, both with their own unique views of the surrounding greenery. These bedrooms are serviced by the family bathroom with also has a jacuzzi bath.
Next to the house is a further field/paddock which has a large kennel block from when the owners used to breed dogs. These could be converted to stables if you are looking for an equestrian property or could be developed into further outbuildings. Again, this field has the potential to house further residential accommodation (stpp) if you are looking to create a multi-generational home by building a sizeable annexe.
This wonderful home is not on mains electricity or gas, although it does have the ability to connect to mains electricity if you'd prefer. The current owners love being self-sufficient and explain that their solar panels power the house. Located in a block next to the house, there is a back-up generator should the battery levels drop to lower than 40% in the winter months. The gas supply is provided by an LPG tank.

About this agent
Lion Estates - Milton Keynes
314 Midsummer Boulevard
Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire
MK9 2UB
01908 951942Lion Estates is a team of estate agents offering the most personal service in the industry. Our goal is to cover our costs by adding value in the form of a higher sales price, better communication and reduce stress for our clients. We aim to be your chosen property professional for life, offering advice and support even when you're not looking to move home. A New Breed Of Estate Agent It's no secret that estate agents in the UK don't have the best reputation compared to other countries across the world... We believe this is down to the high transactional nature of the typical estate agency business model. The need to sell high levels of homes results in poor marketing, worse communication and under-performance which leaves clients feeling short-changed. The agent who values your home and wins your trust isn't the agent who shows potential buyers around your home and goes on to negotiate your sales price. This crucial task falls to the least experienced staff member, who more often than not knows nothing about your home and hopes the potential buyer will decide to offer full asking price off their own back. Don't blame the agent though; they are likely conducting viewings on 30 - 50 homes, such is their business model, so it's impossible for them to know every detail about every home. But the person it impacts the most is the person who is paying the agent's fee - you. This, however, is through choice and not necessity - there is a better way. Imagine a service designed around what's best for the client, always putting your needs first. A truly personal service tailored to the different needs of each client as, after all, everyone's reason for moving is different. Not only that but every home is different - even if you have the same house style as someone else on your street, no other home has the same plot, orientation and feel of your home. You and your home are unique, and we for one believe you deserve to be treated like it. The estate agency industry has failed to evolve over the last 40 + years. It has failed to keep up with the changing needs of clients as the world around us has changed rapidly. Finally that change has come - welcome to the era of the personal estate agent.
