Description
Well appointed throughout this four bedroom character family home in a tucked away location in Lye Green. Catchment area for both Chesham Grammar and Chesham Preparatory School. Views to front over open countryside.
Property Details
We were first attracted to the house by its fabulous wrap around garden, it is both private and spacious. We were also looking for an ideal home for our family. Moving out of Harrow we wanted a semi rural location but still with good transport links into London.
Chesham Station is a walk away and only 55 minutes to Baker Street.
Due to the nearness of the A41 it takes 40 minutes to get to Brent Cross shopping Centre
Being dog owners having farmland all around and the Area of Natural outstanding beauty which is the Chilterns make this the ideal location.
The only reason we are looking to move is to downsize as the house is too substantial for the just two of us in our retirement.
