Monday, May 21, 2018
Just occasionally a property comes to the market with a rich history that you can make your own. 55, Wycombe End is just such a property - a rare opportunity to acquire an elegant Grade 2 listed period property in the Conservation Area and heart of Beaconsfield old town requiring modernisation and offered for sale with vacant possession.
Beaconsfield old town is renowned for its historic public houses and restaurants as well as a weekly market. Communications are excellent with the M40 (J2) nearby giving access to Oxford, Birmingham and London, as well as Heathrow Airport (approx. 16 miles), the M25 and national motorway network. The main line station in the new town serves London Marylebone; the fast train now taking about 22 minutes.
The area is renowned for its excellent schooling, both state and private and a full list of schools can be found here.
With immense charm and character, the accommodation is arranged over two floors with two reception rooms to the front of the property both featuring large glazed panel windows, with radiators. The inner hall gives access to a further reception room with fireplace, glazed panel sash window, kitchen and door to fourth reception room. There is a cloakroom with low level WC and corner wash hand basin. French doors lead outside to an enclosed rear garden.
From the entrance hall stairs rise to the first floor. A small landing provides access to the roof space. There are four bedrooms, two of which have high ceilings and feature fireplaces as well as radiators. The family bathroom has an enamelled, free standing, clawed foot bath, pedestal wash hand basin and high flush WC.
The rear garden which is well enclosed (partly by a brick wall) has a block paved area and double gates providing narrow vehicle access. The remainder of the garden is somewhat overgrown and has a dilapidated garage. A brick built garden store is attached to the rear of the property.
According to Roger Mead, Associate Director for The Frost Partnership in Beaconsfield, “This property is quite unique in that, when modernized, it will provide a family home, full of warmth, history and charm. It is conveniently located in the heart of the old town with all local amenities, including excellent schooling just a walk away.”
55, Wycombe End is for sale for £850,000 through The Frost Partnership, Beaconsfield. To book a viewing call 01494 681234 or for further details click here.
