Clifton House & Clifton Villa are accessed from the drive via electronically controlled gates opening to a central turning circle and generous parking area for several cars. The main house has a hard tennis court to one side and is surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens which are laid mainly to lawn interspersed with beds planted with a variety of mature shrubs and perennial plants. There is a detached garden room and terraces run along the side and rear of the house providing the perfect place to enjoy the beautiful private setting overlooking the garden and surrounding woodland. Clifton Villa, with its own area of garden, is located opposite Clifton House to the side of the driveway where there is also a double garage with workshop to the rear. Access to the Chiltern Way footpaths is directly outside the gate, and the charming local pub the Dew Drop is a 10 minute walk through the forest.
