House For Sale £925,000
A grand and impressive four bedroom, detached family home a stroll from the heart of the village. Lying at the end of a private cul-de-sac, your secluded south west facing rear gardens back on to open country, for endless peace and quiet. Benefitting from a large driveway as well as double garage with room above.
If This Was Your Home... - The handsome appearance of your new home will be apparent as you stroll up your wide driveway (offering parking for four cars) and step through your solid wood front door, inset with stained glass and adorned with classic ironwork.
Inside, the entranceway is a statuesque, double height affair with galleried landing, laid open all the way to the first floor for heaps of natural light and an especially palatial welcome. Richly timber floorboards flow underfoot, and there are timber beams aplenty.
The first door on the left brings you to your beautifully vast lounge, over 450 square feet in all, finished in a soft cream palette and soft carpeting. Triple aspect, natural light floods in at all times of day, while pride of place is taken by a spectacular Inglenook fireplace. Running from floor to ceiling and made up entirely of exposed brick and beams, it's a splendid centrepiece.
French doors open directly to the garden from here (more on your superb outside space later) while a double set of internal doors leads you through into the dining room.
In here you have another bright, dual aspect space, over 250 square feet with more timber beams and supports, along with another striking exposed brick centre piece. It's a superlative setting for family dining and entertaining alike. There's another route to your garden here too - a broad French door frames leafy greenery.
At the rear now, we come to your kitchen, classically attired with smoky sandstone letterbox tiling underfoot and a constellation of recessed LED spotlights overhead. Sturdy blonde hardwood cabinets complement hard-wearing worktops, and windows offer more tantalising views over your tranquil rear garden as well as the side garden where there is space for vegetable patches or the likes.
There's plenty of room for dining in here too, ideal for less formal occasions, and the property's heritage is once again apparent, with stately timber columns and beams. A large Rangemaster oven is a boon for chefs.
Completing your ground floor is an indispensable utility room with stable door to the garden; perfect for laundry with extra appliance and storage space. A cloakroom with additional WC sits next door, finished with elegant timber panelling and serving as a handy spot for bags and coats. If desired there is space for a downstairs shower in here.
Coming full circle, we return to your majestic hallway and the ground floor's final stop, a bright and smart study. A modern must-have, essential for that all-important work/life balance. The village of Stewkley benefits from fibre optic internet, again a must have for modern living and home working. Alternatively, if a fifth or downstairs bedroom is required this would be a perfect opportunity.
Moving onto the first floor, your upper landing has generous proportions, plus an exposed brick accent wall, plenty of timber and gallery views to the hallway. All four of your bedrooms are lovely, while two are utterly wonderful.
Your principal bedroom to the front comes in at 250 square feet, its high, vaulted ceiling lined with beams while a wealth of integrated wardrobes run down one side. Dual aspect, twin windows look out over splendid garden views with fields beyond, while your en suite bathroom is tiled from top to bottom, with a bath and dedicated shower cubicle.
It's an epic space, but just across the landing you have another double bedroom that's similarly splendid. Coming in at just a shade under 300 square feet, in here you have more of that characterful timber, plus twin gabled windows looking out over greenery to either side. There is potential to split this bedroom into two rooms or install a second en-suite if desired.
Elsewhere, your family bathroom comes dressed in white and oak, while bedroom three's a naturally bright double of 160 square feet with a window to the rear aspect enjoying views over the garden and fields beyond. Finally, a fourth bedroom completes the sleeping arrangements at a respectable 100 square feet, with blush pink walls, another gabled window and space for twin beds.
Outside, and your new home's finest feature thrives in the sunshine. Follow generous kitchen vegetable beds down one flank, before emerging at the rear for a broad patio spanning the whole property, perfect for those summer BBQ's and parties, descending then to a sheltered, immaculate stretch of lawn with mature trees and plants to the borders.
Surrounded by thriving, diverse foliage and mature greenery, with a gravelled pathway winding its way round, this is a glorious outdoor solace. Gorgeous green and pleasant country views lie to the south west and there's nothing but clear skies and rolling hills on the horizon. A superb setting for your new home.
The double garage enjoys power, lighting as well as a fitted workbench. We cannot forget about the 140 square foot space above the garage that could be converted into an office. The current owners utilise this room as a playroom and storage area.
Your Neighbourhood - Being tucked away at the end of your quiet cul-de-sac, the centre of Stewkley village is just five minutes on foot, arranged around St Michael's & All Saints Church and the open green space of Stewkley Recreation ground, about halfway along what's believed to be the longest village High Street in the country. The village of Stewkley also enjoys a pub and village shop.
St Michael's CofE combined school is barely a moment past the church, and rated 'Good' by Ofsted. There are also a further thirty 'Good' or 'Outstanding' primary/secondary schools within a five miles radius, chiefly scattered around the nearby market town of Leighton Buzzard, itself just a ten minute drive and offering regular, thirty-two minute connections to London Euston. If desired the property also benefits from being in the grammar school catchment area. If private schools are required there are several options including; Swanbourne, MK prep, the Bedford schools, Thornton college or Akeley Wood in Buckingham.
Locally, golfers are especially well catered for, with Aylesbury Vale Golf Club just a two minute drive and there is also a wider array of options for local golf courses including Woburn, Leighton Buzzard and The Three Locks to name a few.
