Jon-Paul Brampton presents...what was formerly the 'old village shop', now re-imagined as a spacious detached family home designed with style and finished in a playful and family oriented way.

The property

This detached Victorian home is situated on Ivinghoe's characterful High Street . Originally the old village shop, this property has now been transformed into a sensational family home. Retaining the charm of its heritage whilst incorporating ultra modern features and a sleek design led finish and layout. This is a home like no other!

As you enter in to the entrance hall the large bright minimalist style kitchen lies before you. Simple in its design with an abundance of cupboard and countertop space, all the utilities you would expect are here and a separate utility area provides additional prep and storage solutions.

There are many wow factors in this home, but the huge dining area in the middle of the house, with its part vaulted ceiling and sensational wall of glass outlook is a sight to behold. Generous in terms of space and practical in use this is an incredibly family friendly space. Glass doors to the garden can be folded back to create a modern and flexible layout which brings the outside in, and the inside out.

Primarily a completely open plan downstairs space concludes with a large living area at the back of the house. Ample room for large furniture and a real feeling of privacy is felt here. There is also a downstairs WC for comfort.

A sleek open tread industrial style staircase transports you upstairs where an equally dramatic space awaits. The spectacular main bedroom boasts its own ensuite shower room, a dressing area to the rear of the room, with a false wall providing an ingenious feeling of separation .

There is a large landing area overlooking the floor below, benefiting from the vaulted ceilings and the views through the wall of glass to the side of the house. There is a large flexible space here, ideal as a study area or separate lounge. A separate family bathroom services the two further double bedrooms to the front.

Externally there is a driveway to the side of the house where you can fit a small car (as seen in the photos) and a low maintenance walled garden to the side. Finished with artificial grass this unique space offers an all year round usability. There is ample space to dine and entertain in the warmer months and room for the children to play and enjoy.

Throughout this home there are clever features and ingenious use of space that really do need to be seen to be fully appreciated. So please read the description, browse the photos and watch the video tour. And then if you think this could be the home for you, give me a call to arrange a view.

The location

Ivinghoe is a small village at the foot of the Chiltern Hills within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the ancient wood land of The Ashridge Estate. Formerly a town with Viking origins, hence the Old Town Hall in the High Street, the village retains many of its older buildings and its 'English Village' atmosphere. On the High Street you will find the Village Shop and Post Office. There is also a Florist and Pharmacy. The quintessential village green, 'Ivinghoe Lawn', with its Village Hub is a short walk away offering a lovely family orientated space. A Doctors surgery, Curry House and larger village shop can be found in the connected neighbouring village of Pitstone.

Set within the heart of Ivinghoe village, the property itself is just a short stroll from the popular Rose & Crown Public House and the Ivinghoe Golf Club. There is a bridleway that offers a wonderful opportunity to explore the local countryside, with a direct route to Ivinghoe Aston and Edlesborough, as well as pathways up to Ivinghoe Beacon and beyond. The famous 'Pitstone Windmill' is again just a short walk away and offers wonderful scenic views and walks to enjoy.

Brookmead is the local primary school, with The Tring School, The Cottesloe School, Aylesbury Boys Grammar School, Aylesbury High School for Girls and the Sir Henry Floyd Co-Ed Grammar School of Aylesbury within catchment for secondary education. Further amenities can be found in the market towns of Tring and Berkhamsted, both just short drives away.

For rail services, both Tring Station and Cheddington Station are just a 5 minute drive away offering regular and direct services both to London Euston and to the North. For road links, the A41 is within easy reach and will take you to the M25 in just over 10 minutes.
