Amersham HillHigh Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, HP13 6NZ

Built in 1871, designed by Arthur Vernon, a local architect responsible for many important buildings in High Wycombe, this unique townhouse forms part of one of the finest Victorian buildings in High Wycombe and is positioned within the heart of the town centre. Set back from the hustle and bustle, Hillside House sits in a secluded enclave, whilst enjoying very close proximity to the shops and station.

The property has been extensively and sympathetically improved and finished to a high standard. The ground floor offers an entrance hall packed with period features, including Victorian encaustic floor tiles, stained glass and an original fireplace. Leading off the entrance hall are two well-proportioned reception rooms; a drawing room and study which offer a wealth of traditional details including high ceilings, large sash windows, cornicing and working fireplaces. All reception rooms face the front offering views of the leafy garden beyond. Right off the hall lies the kitchen/dining room running along the rear of the house overlooking the garden. The impressive kitchen/dining room has been recently refurbished with plentiful handmade cabinetry, quartz worktops, underfloor heating, electric blinds and a large island perfect for entertaining and busy family life. Bi-fold doors open out to the garden beyond and a breakfast area provides a relaxing space to enjoy the morning sun. Leading off from the kitchen/dining room is a pantry, separate utility area, handy storage space, period style cloakroom and the office.

Upstairs a light airy landing leads to the principal bedroom at the rear, with a wealth of storage, views over the garden and a walk-in wardrobe. The principal bedroom also enjoys a large luxurious en suite bathroom with a roll top bath. Three further double bedrooms (two with en suites) all offer well-proportioned accommodation and a family bathroom completes the first floor. Approached by a secondary staircase off the kitchen and half landing are two further bedrooms and a shower room, ideal for an Au Pair. There is also space for a seating area and ample attic storage.

To the rear, the attractive well-landscaped gardens are a highlight of the property. Featuring a variety of mature trees, including beech, silver birch and acers; it is a relaxing tranquil haven. Landscaping includes railway sleepers encasing stepped areas to provide two lawned spaces, whilst three entertaining areas are enclosed by rustic stone walls to provide shady nooks and sunny seating areas, excellent for entertaining and ideal for children to play.
