About this property

  • Stable Barn is a striking detached barn conversion occupying a wonderful south-facing plot complete with its own paddock and extensive kitchen garden. Enjoying a particularly attractive setting backing directly on to Lambourne Golf Club, the property forms part of a small and secluded greenbelt enclave while remaining conveniently placed for both Beaconsfield and Burnham Station, with mainline stations into London Marylebone. Approximately 0.55 acres in all.

    A much loved home for over 23 years, Stable Barn offers character, space and natural light in equal measure. Approached via a private driveway shared with just one neighbouring barn and the original farmhouse, the property immediately impresses with its vaulted ceilings, generous proportions and strong connection to the surrounding gardens and countryside.

    The accommodation extends to over 2,400 sq ft, including the garage, and has been thoughtfully arranged to create a practical and comfortable family home arranged over one level.

    The front door opens into the reception hall, connecting the living and bedroom areas with engineered oak flooring extending to the principal reception rooms. The drawing room is a particularly impressive space, enjoying natural light from three aspects. A cast-iron wood-burning stove provides a focal point, while French doors open directly on to the garden. Adjoining the kitchen, the dining room is ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining, again benefitting from French doors leading outside. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with handcrafted oak-fronted cabinetry, complemented by granite work surfaces and a range of integrated appliances. French doors provide direct access to the terrace and gardens. A quietly situated study provides an ideal working from home space.

    The principal bedroom is a superb space, characterised by a vaulted ceiling, excellent natural light and French doors opening on to the terrace, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee overlooking the garden. It is served by fitted wardrobes and a generous en suite bathroom with both bath and separate shower. The guest bedroom benefits from its own en suite shower room, while two further bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, which can also be accessed directly from bedroom three, creating flexibility for family living or guests.

    Outside
    The gardens and grounds are a particular feature of the property. From the driveway, a five-bar gate leads through to the paddock, which enjoys a delightful outlook towards Lambourne Golf Club and contributes greatly to the property's semi-rural feel. Designed very much with outdoor living in mind, an impressive covered outdoor kitchen provides an excellent entertaining space, complete with Butler sink, running water, power, lighting and mounted electric heaters, allowing it to be enjoyed throughout much of the year. A wide terrace extends across the rear of the house, leading on to areas of lawn and creating a seamless connection between the house and garden. Beyond lies a substantial kitchen garden and recreational area arranged with raised timber beds and a potting shed. A range of useful outbuildings further enhance the property's appeal. These include a Rhino greenhouse with plumbed water supply, a substantial timber workshop with mains power and two further storage sheds. In addition there is a garage with an electric car charging point.
