About
Family home with planning permission in a prime Beaconsfield setting.
Description Situated in a highly sought after and convenient location, just about half a mile from the station, this family home occupies a superb west-facing plot in excess of 0.33 acres and offers enormous potential.
The property has approved planning permission to extend/re-develop with further permission for an additional dwelling at the rear of the garden.
The house offers well-balanced accommodation throughout, with ample living space, good-sized bedrooms, and a practical layout.
Large windows allow for plenty of natural light, enhancing the sense of space and offering a bright, airy feel.
While the property has been well maintained, it would now benefit from a programme of modernisation.
On the ground floor the reception hall is of excellent proportions, with a guest cloakroom and attractive herringbone flooring extending through to much of this floor.
To the front, a dining room leads through to the sitting/family room with glazed doors allowing for a more open plan layout or providing privacy when required.
Both rooms benefit from working fireplaces while the family room enjoys French doors opening to the conservatory and through to the garden.
The kitchen/breakfast room overlooks the garden and is well equipped with a range of units, walk-in pantry and offers plenty of space for a breakfast table.
A downstairs bathroom and a study overlooking the frontage, with door access into the garage, completes the ground floor accommodation.
Upstairs on the first floor are four double bedrooms, with three benefiting from built-in wardrobes. All are served by a good sized family bathroom with a bath and separate shower.
Outside a spacious driveway at the front provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles, complemented by a large area of lawn with mature hedging, and direct access to the integral double garage.
To the rear, the substantial rear garden is primarily laid to lawn with fenced and hedged boundaries, a selection of trees and shrubs. A patio area offers space for outside dining and entertaining.
