A skilfully crafted barn conversion located in an idyllic rural setting surrounded by glorious rolling Chilterns countryside.
Description
Hockley Threshing Barn is a skilfully crafted barn conversion located in an idyllic rural setting surrounded by glorious rolling Chilterns countryside.
Having undergone a programme of extensive refurbishment, the property now blends the very best of charm and character with a fine contemporary flourish. Exposed beams and open plan spaces alongside vaulted ceilings and a clever L shaped layout allows for a wonderful feeling of light and space with enormous adaptability to suit all requirements across a footprint approaching 5,000 sqft.
Upon entering the property you are greeted by a spectacular double aspect and vaulted reception hall which is bathed in natural light and features a galleried staircase rising through the beams to the first floor past a full height picture window overlooking the courtyard garden.
The living accommodation is thoughtfully arranged with a number of rooms including a lovely dual aspect living room with feature open fireplace which overlooks the rear courtyard. Next to the living room is a useful home office/study, with a further generous formal dining room positioned closest to the kitchen, located on the far side of the hallway.
The kitchen/breakfast room has been remodelled in a farmhouse design with an extensive range of units, matching central island and feature Aga all set on original quarry tiles. Leading from the kitchen are steps up to a good size boot room with ample storage, along with a separate utility room and WC. Positioned behind the boot room is a further reception, ideal as a TV/play room.
The bedroom accommodation is equally generous with each of the bedrooms enjoying vaulted spaces framed by original exposed beams. The principal bedroom suite is simply magnificent with a dual aspect design providing views over the surrounding land. This exceptional suite benefits from an open dressing room leading through to a remodelled en-suite bath and shower room and with a further private snug.
The remaining bedrooms are accessed from a lovely split level landing and are all generous in size, with the smaller two having been smartly designed with mezzanine levels which make them very special children’s bedrooms. Of particular note is bedroom three which boasts a floor to ceiling picture window allowing for sumptuous views over the surrounding countryside.
The remaining bedrooms are served by three further remodelled and well-appointed bath/shower rooms.
The property along with its neighbour are tucked away in a quintessentially Chilterns valley enjoying panoramic countryside views. A large block paved driveway provides ample parking and gives access to the detached barn style double garage and adjacent store.
Formal gardens extend to a little over 0.5 acre with a lawned area rising to meet an idyllic viewing platform and seating area overlooking both the barn and surrounding fields. Located on the far side of the property, a private courtyard garden has been beautifully reimagined as a relaxed and informal entertaining space.
The property is being sold with the option to purchase a further 11.5 acres of agricultural land, currently used for pasture/grazing which rises up and over the hillside to the rear allowing for simply breath taking views over the surrounding countryside. This land is available by separate negotiation.
Location
Nestled between the villages of Ley Hill and Latimer, Hockley Threshing Barn is ideally situated for access to the larger towns of Amersham (4 miles) and Chesham (3 miles) and the popular village of Little Chalfont (3 miles), all of which offer a wide selection of shopping facilities and amenities.
The commuter is well catered for with Metropolitan/Chiltern Line available at both Amersham and Little Chalfont and Metropolitan spur line at Chesham giving access to Baker Street & Marylebone respectively. Access to the M40 via the M25 at Chorleywood. Heathrow airport about 20 miles away.
