    About this property

    • A most impressive seven bedroom detached Edwardian house, one of the principal properties on this much sought after prime road. Positioned wonderfully just 0.5 miles to Gerrards Cross railway station, on generous level southerly aspect grounds that are approaching 1.5 acres (in all). There is significant accommodation arranged over two floors plus basement with detached two storey coach house accommodation and separate barn offering over 8,900 sq ft. There is considerable development potential to improve and extend badminton house and cottage with uplift including pool enclosure and secret garden. There is scope for additional development of 2,100 sq ft as highlighted in the planning officers report, regarding planning submitted subject to the necessary bat reports being submitted in May 2024 and subject to the relevant consents.

      Planning application number SBD/376/81 granted permission for single storey rear extension and creation of rooms in the roof space by the creation of small dormer windows at Badminton House, Marsham Way, Gerrards cross. Since single storey rear extension has been built the creation of rooms in the roof space is still valid. The loft conversion plan shows the elevations and floor plan.

      The house sits on an a corner plot, approaching 1.5 acres with driveway access from both Marsham Way and Vicarage Way. The large gravel driveway provides very generous parking and access to a detached two bedroom coach house and barn. There is side access to the rear along both sides of the property opening onto a patio terrace for entertaining. The southerly aspect rear gardens are a delight, being both level and private. They are mainly laid to lawn, being well stocked with trees & hedges. There is also a swimming pool.

      Full planning application reference PL/ 23/3073/FA had been submitted to Chiltern & South Bucks planning department based on floor plans of restored Badminton House plus restored Cottage and Barn. The concept is to restore the original character of Badminton house and Coach House when they were built in 1913. The proposed floor plans of restored Badminton House include entrance hall, two reception rooms, kitchen/breakfast, dining room, lounge/snug, gym, and maids room accommodation on the ground floor. Six en suite bedrooms, cinema room and a terraced roof top with glass balustrade and a new staircase on the first and second floors. The plans for the restored Coach House proposed accommodation is a living/ dining room, kitchen and utility on the ground floor.

      On the first floor are two bedrooms and a shared bathroom. A retractable pool enclosure had been proposed linking to the existing pool changing rooms. Also a landscaped garden has been incorporated with a pergola, seating area and a fountain.

      The response from Chiltern and South bucks planning department dated 26 January 2024 regards planning application PL/ 23/3073/FA shows the decision and the planning officer's report posted on the council planning portal website.
