Description
Occupying a generous plot and offering approximately 1,479 sq ft of accommodation including outbuildings, the property has been extensively renovated and carefully improved by the current owners. Every enhancement has been thoughtfully considered to preserve the home’s original character while introducing stylish and practical modern touches throughout.
The ground floor offers spacious and versatile living accommodation, beginning with a welcoming entrance hall leading through to a generous dining room, ideal for both family living and entertaining. The impressive living room is undoubtedly one of the home’s standout features, showcasing exposed original beams, beautifully restored woodwork, bespoke cabinetry and a charming fireplace with log-burning stove, creating a cosy yet elegant focal point. Large windows fitted with plantation shutters allow an abundance of natural light to flow through the property, further enhancing the inviting atmosphere.
The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to provide excellent storage and preparation space, whilst the newly fitted utility room adds practicality for modern day living. Significant upgrades carried out by the current owners include complete rewiring throughout the property, newly installed cast iron radiators and the careful restoration and treatment of the original timber features, all completed to an exceptional standard.
To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including two generous doubles and a versatile third bedroom which could equally serve as a study or nursery, alongside a family bathroom. The principal bedroom further benefits from beautifully fitted solid wood wardrobes, providing excellent storage while complementing the character and quality of the home.
Externally, the property continues to impress. A newly extended driveway provides ample off-road parking, whilst the rear garden offers an attractive and private outdoor space ideal for relaxing and entertaining. The home also benefits from two useful outbuildings, including a summer house and separate shed, offering excellent additional storage or potential for a home office, studio or hobby room.
Padbury is a picturesque Buckinghamshire village highly regarded for its strong community feel, well-regarded primary school, traditional village pub and beautiful surrounding countryside. The nearby market town of Buckingham provides a wider range of amenities, schooling and transport links, making this an ideal location for both families and commuters alike.
This exceptional home perfectly balances character, comfort and modern convenience, and internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the quality and charm on offer.

- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
