5 bedroom house for sale

Overview

A detached Grade II listed farm house with gardens, four garages and off street parking, with a separate Grade II listed barn and an indoor swimming pool in a village position overlooking open countryside. The property is in an old part of the village, enclosed by nearly three quarters of an acre of gardens and with views from the front of a wooded hill with the historic Wheatleaf Cross chalk carving. Formally dated to the mid-18th-century, Chestnut Farm House is possibly older; records show its role in village history. Under a clay tile roof, the facade of the house is in two parts. The right side, comprising three bays, with casement windows, was built in the 1750s, the left, with taller bays and sash windows, around 1800; the lower windows have gauged brick heads. The walls are of chequered red and vitreous bricks in a pattern of varying regularity.The 18th-century thatched barn, once integral to the agricultural life of the farm, has, like the house, been painstakingly restored, and both buildings, now function as a versatile family home, baring testimony to the research and expertise involved in their restoration. The swimming pool barn is a sympathetic modern addition. For more details and to contact: https://realtyww.info/houses_princes-risborough-d197761/for-sale_i70412331
