Features and description
Dating back to the 16th century, Tudor House is a substantial and beautifully restored village home offering over 4,000 sq ft of elegant accommodation, thoughtfully reimagined for modern family living while retaining a wealth of historic charm. This remarkable five-bedroom residence seamlessly blends heritage architecture with contemporary comfort, creating a home of both grandeur and warmth.
The entrance hall immediately sets the tone, featuring a magnificent original fireplace adorned with intricately carved timbers bearing the Tudor Rose, stars, rosettes and arrows within cusped panels. Throughout the house, rooms are defined by generous proportions, high ceilings and an abundance of natural light. The impressive beamed drawing room, centred around a vast inglenook fireplace, is particularly striking.
At the heart of the home lies a stylish family kitchen, perfectly designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Bi-fold doors open onto an expansive sun terrace, ideal for al fresco dining, which overlooks the heated outdoor swimming pool (with safety cover) and enjoys uninterrupted views across gently tiered lawns and adjoining paddocks. The setting is both tranquil and inspiring, offering a rare sense of space and privacy within a village location. Tudor House is, quite simply, a truly special home in an idyllic countryside setting.
The Location
Whitchurch is a quintessential Buckinghamshire village, rich in history and charm, with a delightful high street lined with period cottages and notable architectural landmarks. The village is also home to the atmospheric ruins of the 12th-century Bolbec Castle, destroyed during the Civil War.
The area is particularly well regarded for education, with a local primary school and outstanding state options nearby in Swanbourne and Mursley. The property falls within the catchment area for Aylesbury Grammar School and Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School, while renowned independent schools including Berkhamsted, Swanbourne House, Beachborough, Winchester House, Ashfold Preparatory School and Stowe are all within easy reach.
Village amenities are excellent and include a butcher, GP surgery, post office, hairdresser, osteopath, veterinary practice, children's playground and a welcoming village pub. For outdoor enthusiasts, a network of ancient footpaths and circular walks lie just beyond the doorstep, including the popular Aylesbury Ring, offering sweeping views across Aylesbury Vale.
Further enhancing connectivity, a new railway station is under construction in nearby Winslow on the East-West Rail line, linking Oxford, Milton Keynes and Cambridge. Due for completion in 2024, it will provide an estimated journey time of just 27 minutes to Oxford. With excellent transport links, London is easily accessible via nearby Aylesbury or Leighton Buzzard where a 27 minute train to Euston connects you within minutes to the city and central London.
