Description

An executive detached home situated within Hernes Oak, an exclusive gated development of just eight properties. Built in 2008 by renowned developers Shanley Homes, this residence is finished to a high specification throughout and occupies a generous wrap-around plot of approximately 0.2 acres.

Originally designed as a four bedroom home, the current owners worked with the developers to reconfigure the first floor, creating three well-appointed bedrooms, including a stunning master suite. In our opinion, this redesign offers a far superior use of space and enhances the overall feel of the home.

Ground Floor:
The welcoming entrance hall provides integral access to the garage and features a cloakroom. The stunning kitchen/breakfast room offers generous workspace and high-quality fittings, complemented by a separate utility room. The ground floor also includes a formal dining room, a well-proportioned sitting room with a gas fire, and a separate study, all of which enjoy lovely views over the garden.

First Floor:
A spacious landing with loft access, ample storage, and an airing cupboard leads to the beautiful master suite, complete with built-in wardrobes and a large ensuite bathroom with a separate shower. There are two further double bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom.

Outside:
Approached through electric gates, the property benefits from a generous driveway with access to both the garden and the integral garage. The home enjoys a wraparound plot of approximately 0.2 acres, featuring a wide variety of mature shrubs, trees, well-kept borders, a patio area, and a charming pond.

The Location:
Chinnor and its surrounding hamlets are part of the ancient chain of villages following the spring line at the foot of the Chiltern escarpment.
With a population of around 7000, the village offers good local shopping facilities including a Supermarket, Village store, Post Office, Bakery and Pharmacy. There are also Doctors & Dentists, Hairdressers, Sports Fields, play areas for children and a selection of Public Houses, two Indian Restaurants, a Chinese takeaway and Fish & Chip shop. A superb Village centre has also been created, providing a coffee shop, day care for the elderly, a youth centre and a wide range of services and activities.

The M40 motorway (Junction 6) is only 3 miles from Chinnor and provides excellent road links to both Oxford (15 miles) and London (30 miles). The Oxford Tube stop is extremely popular with commuters.
Princes Risborough station is only 4 miles away with an excellent commuter bus link, which operates on the Chiltern Line providing services to both Birmingham Moor Street and London Marylebone. There is also a regular bus service to Thame, High Wycombe and Oxford.

Chinnor is served by two Primary Schools, The Mill Lane School and St Andrews School. Local secondary schools are the Lord Williams in Thame (5 miles) and The Icknield School, Watlington (6 miles).

Disclaimer:
We are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those selling or buying a property. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks and any ongoing monitoring are carried out correctly, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or had an offer accepted on a property you wish to buy. The cost of these checks is £80.00 (incl. VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Lifetime Legal, and is non-refundable. We will receive some of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal to compensate for its role in the provision of these checks. Parkers Estate Agents endeavour to ensure any sales particulars produced are both accurate and reliable, however they do not constitute part of any offer or contract. All measurements supplied are for guidance only and are not precise. Additionally any services, fixtures or fittings have not been tested by us and it is in the buyers interest to establish their condition or efficiency, and it is advised buyers obtain verification from their appointed solicitor as to the confirmed legal title of the property.
