Hogback Wood Road, Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, HP9 1JR

Whinbury is a beautifully maintained and enhanced detached home, ideally located on one of Beaconsfield’s most prestigious private roads.

Built in 1958 and known locally as "The Big House" this six-bedroom residence has a notable history as the former home of Lady Felicity Harwood, daughter of post-war Prime Minister Clement Attlee.

A welcoming covered porch grants entry to the home, opening into a spacious entrance hall that sets a sense of scale and style for the rest of the property.

At the rear of the home lies the impressive open-plan hub, featuring a contemporary kitchen with sleek handleless cabinetry, a large central island, and high-end integrated appliances.

This expansive space is flooded with natural light from a large overhead skylight and bi-fold doors that transition seamlessly to the terrace.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a comfortable family and dining area, perfectly designed for modern life. For more formal occasions, the triple-aspect drawing room offers an atmosphere of refined elegance.

The centerpiece of this room is a magnificent stone fireplace, uniquely sourced from Killyleagh Castle in County Down, complemented by bi-fold doors that invite the garden in.

The ground floor is completed by a private front-facing sitting room, a practical utility room, laundry room, a dedicated boot room, a guest cloakroom, and access to the integrated garage.

The first floor features a generous principal sanctuary with a private dressing area and en-suite bathroom, alongside a secondary guest suite and three further bedrooms served by a modern family bathroom.

The second floor consists of a versatile loft conversion added during the 2015-2016 works.

This expansive area offers a flexible footprint, serving equally well as a sixth bedroom, cinema room, or substantial playroom with elevated views over the surrounding greenery.

Gardens and Grounds The private grounds are a particular feature, meticulously landscaped and richly stocked with ornamental planting, including magnolia, wisteria, and jasmine, to provide year-round interest.

For alfresco living, a hardwood rear deck and a secondary large timber deck (built on steel reinforced concrete) are both fully serviced with light and power.

Security is comprehensive, featuring a BEHSS alarm system and Ring cameras covering all elevations.

The garden further benefits from high-specification outbuildings, including a converted stable now used as a fully functional gym and a solid oak shed with an integrated wood store, both built on dwarf brick walls and steel reinforced concrete bases.

A separate storage shed completes the grounds, while a pea shingle driveway to the front provides ample off-street parking.
