Nestled in a peaceful, semi-rural position in the village of Bolter End, this lovely home forms a wing of a former Victorian mansion (c. 1850). The attractive property provides a considered blend of original charm and character while offering modernised interiors, sympathetic to the age and style of the home. The versatile accommodation includes not only the main house but also a further office or self-contained guest suite above the garage, as well as a modern garden room complete with a kitchen and shower room, providing additional accommodation or annexes for teenage or elderly relatives. The accommodation can be used all year round due to full insulation and electric underfloor heating.

Of particular note in the main house is the open-plan kitchen and dining room, with its traditional cabinetry, modern electric AGA and Belfast sink, set beneath a roof lantern which floods the interiors with natural light. The west-facing views are also a highlight, overlooking the beautiful gardens and the rolling hills of the Chilterns beyond.

Downstairs, the accommodation comprises a generous reception room, the kitchen and dining room, an adjoining utility room, cloakroom, and a conservatory with a striking mural on one wall.

Upstairs, the two double bedrooms are both generously proportioned and enjoy gorgeous far-reaching views. Both are en suite with the principal bedroom benefiting from triple-aspect views and architect-designed features, including fully fitted wardrobes and additional handmade furniture. The second bedroom features an en suite shower room and a fireplace.

A lovely, self-contained guest suite is positioned above the detached garage, with west-facing views, providing a welcoming and private space.

The house is packed with character features, including wall panelling, wooden doors, a fireplace and a chandelier. The complete house is specialist-painted and features a hand-painted ceiling in the sitting room. Outside features include a grand pillared entrance.


Outside

The house is set within a small enclave accessed via a gated entrance. To the front, there is a private gravel driveway providing ample parking, as well as an oak car port. The gardens are varied and beautifully landscaped, including a sun-trap courtyard between the house and the detached garage, a terrace extending from the garden room, a tranquil water feature, and manicured lawns bordered by a stunning multi-coloured Dutch paviour path and well-established flowerbeds. The garden opens up to an expansive open area, shaded at the edges by mature trees, with a covered seating area for outdoor entertaining and a pretty shed for storage. At the end of the garden, post-and-rail fencing provides uninterrupted west-facing views for several miles over the farmland to the rear.
