Description

Occupying a wonderful semi-rural location on Chinnor Hill, this beautifully presented semi-detached house has been meticulously crafted to exude Italian elegance. The interior design is characterised by high-quality materials and ornate decorative detailing with classical influences.

Set in wonderfully landscaped gardens, Magnolia House is exquisitely decorated and offers superb characterful accommodation in a quiet, picturesque setting backing on to farmland to the rear. The property has been designed with a great attention to detail, with clever storage ideas and marble detailing in the bathrooms. Overlooking the garden, the kitchen/dining room enjoys a dual aspect with French doors on to the outside terrace. The bespoke, hand made kitchen is complemented by Italian marble worktops, with appliances including a gas Aga, gas hob, extractor and a dishwasher. An open spacious pantry area gives additional storage and provides space for an American style fridge freezer. Oak flooring extends through to the sitting room offering a lovely blend of grandeur and comfort, featuring ornate, hand-made built-in shelving alongside a decorative stone fireplace with a working fire and French doors opening to the garden. Just off here is a perfect study area, with built-in bespoke cabinetry. An adjacent guest cloakroom incorporates both an integrated washing machine and a tumble dryer.

The principal bedroom on the first floor benefits from a dual aspect with lovely garden and countryside views. The en suite shower room is beautifully appointed with a large shower and marble topped vanity unit. Bedroom Two also has lovely views and a walk-in wardrobe. The remaining bedroom is currently used as a dressing room, with built-in hanging and storage space. These bedrooms are served by a charming family bath/shower room.

Magnolia House is situated on a generous, secluded plot approached over an electric-gated driveway providing parking for several vehicles and access to a detached oak framed double garage, with attached loggia. The attractively landscaped garden is a real feature of the house, designed in a beautiful Italianate style with a variety of specimen trees and plants. A delightful patio adjoins the rear of the house giving a perfect outside spot for relaxation, with a cleverly designed outside sofa incorporated into the design, while a further adjacent terrace is ideal for al fresco dining. The garden backs on to farmland, affording lovely countryside views and is well screened with high hedging and a fabulous array of magnolia trees.
