About
The Folly is situated on the outskirts of Chesham, next to the village of Chartridge and overlooking the mesmerising Pednor Valley.
Visitors enter a generous entrance hall offering uninterrupted views straight over the valley, setting the tone for this well-conceived home.
To the left is a bay fronted guest bedroom with en-suite shower room. A second front-facing double bedroom opposite has potential as a large study or play room.
The adjacent area leads onto a high specification family bathroom. To the rear of the ground floor is the heart of the house – an open plan living and dining space with bespoke kitchen.
It is fully equipped with all appliances and flanked by a full height fridge to one side. The island houses a five-ring gas hob and extractor above, extending to a breakfast bar.
A ‘secret’ utility to the right of the kitchen behind a concealed door, will surprise on first discovery.
At the end of the room, the eye is drawn outside to the landscaped garden and patio, visible through two sets of tri-fold doors, with further light flooding in from two lantern skylights.
This space is perfect for entertaining and flows seamlessly into a living room and dining room area.
A pair of double glass doors lead to a further reception room, currently utilised as a ‘snug’ with TV and sofa bed.
Up a flight of stairs, the principal bedroom is a superb, bright space with vaulted ceiling and en-suite shower room, and walk in wardrobe.
Views continue to impress from this level over the farmlands of Great and Little Pednor Valley. Outside The rear, south-facing garden is the perfect space to relax and entertain.
Thoughtfully landscaped into clean and symmetrical lines, with a variety of spring and summer plants and flowers, it is also the perfect spot to enjoy a glass of something chilled on the two-tiered patio, where permanent outside garden furniture and a Weber barbecue remain all year round.
To the front of the house, the driveway can comfortably take four vehicles. Available from 1st December, on a furnished basis.
