Description
DESCRIPTION
Willobeck was built in the mid 1980’s, a Potton home that stands in almost half an acre of grounds nestled between a farm and countryside. Potton homes are known for their character and beams and timbers of which Willobeck is a typical example with an open plan style constructed around a central fireplace and chimney.
The accommodation comprises of a boot room at the side entrance, practically this would be the main entrance, then a large kitchen and dining room, the kitchen with wooden units and a tiled floor and the dining room containing a woodburning stove and floorboards and a built in dresser at one end.
There is a nice reception hall and cloakroom and the sitting room features an inglenook fireplace also containing a wood burning stove. The remainder of the ground floor rooms form an annexe although obviously could be used independently, in their intended form though they provide a sitting room, conservatory, kitchen, and small ensuite bedroom.
Upstairs are 4 bedrooms, 3 doubles and a good single, the main bedroom with an ensuite shower room. Both the bathroom and ensuite have coloured suites including a wc, wash basin and bidet.
OUTSIDE
The access is down a long drive and then behind a five bar gate is hardstanding and parking for a few vehicles. Here is the double garage and stable/workshop, of timber construction on a brick base and power, lighting and water are connected. The garage measures approx. 6.14 x 5.27 metres and the workshop 2.86 x 5.27 metres.
The house sits in the top corner of the plot surrounded by lawns sprinkled with trees, bushes and flower beds and the eastern and southern boundaries abut the countryside.

LOCATION
Willobeck is on the Aston Clinton Road, geographically closer to Aston Clinton than Weston Turville. The A41 Aston Clinton bypass is a stones throw away and the village lies to the East of Aylesbury on the road to London through Tring. The Grand Junction canal passes along the south east boundary of Aston Clinton park.
Aston, originally Estone means East farm. Clinton is from the name of the man who held Estone in 1208.
It is an ancient parish where late Celtic and Roman relics have been unearthed. There are dotted along the main street some very old timber framed cottages although the majority are more modern. There is a strong Rothschild connection to the village, Sir Anthony De Rothschild built a school in Aston Clinton in the mid 1800s and also a very grand house which sadly has since been demolished.
Local amenities are good with a shop, post office, garage and pub/restaurants within the village. Aylesbury is approx. 3 miles and Tring 2½ miles, both service London by train (Marylebone and Euston respectively).
