Currently requiring modernisation, the property is presented immaculately throughout and offers enormous potential to further enlarge and improve the existing footprint subject to usual planning consents. The light and airy accommodation comprises three formal reception rooms and an additional sun room adjacent to, and accessed from both the lounge and kitchen. The kitchen itself has a separate utility room and there are further externally accessed outbuildings/stores beyond. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms serviced by a family bath/shower room and a smaller additional room currently used as a study. An undoubted feature of Pippins is its beautifully landscaped gardens, attractively arranged within an overall plot of around 0.9 acre flanking paddocks and farmland. The house is ideally situated towards the front of the plot with the gardens currently wrapping around the Southern & Western elevations and offering a mixture of lawned areas interspersed with well stocked beds of specimen shrubs and wild flower. A hedgerow to the rear of the formal gardens separates the orchard which currently has a number of fruit trees, extensive fruit & vegetable cages and additional family garden space. A driveway currently runs along the side of the house and provides ample parking to both the side and rear. Situation The desirable hamlet of Winchmore Hill is in a designated area of outstanding natural beauty and surrounded by miles of idyllic countryside. The common onto which Pippins faces provides a play area for young children, popular junior football pitch and there is a local cricket club close by on Horsemoor Lane. Community social clubs and meetings are held in the well-used village hall and an active Residents Association organises events throughout the year. Within the village there are two popular public house/restaurants, The Plough and The Potters Arms both overlooking the common and countryside beyond. Winchmore Hill is located off the A404 which links Amersham to High Wycombe, within 4 miles of Amersham on the Hill, including the Metropolitan/Chiltern Line station for the London commuter. Amersham Old Town with its picturesque high street of period buildings, boutique shops and restaurants is within 2½ miles whilst Beaconsfield is about 3 miles away and offers a Chiltern Line service to London Marylebone. The area is renowned for its excellent primary and secondary schooling, including Dr Challoner’s Grammar School for boys in Amersham & High School for girls in Little Chalfont.
