Description
DESCRIPTION
Number 20 New Street was built by Messrs Bellway Homes approximately 4 years ago, one of a small cul de sac at the end of a side street. With much of the housing in Waddesdon being Victorian in origin contemporary properties are rare and particularly 2 bedroom properties, which is why they were ‘snapped up’ on this exclusive development when first sold.
The accommodation briefly comprises a hall with a laminate floor and coat hanging space into a good size sitting room. Across the back is an excellent kitchen/dining room that has double doors to the garden. The kitchen contains grey soft close units with concealed lighting and granite effect worktops. Integrated are a fridge and freezer, a dishwasher, a washing machine, 4 burner gas hob with extractor hood and an electric oven. Adjacent the dining area is a cloakroom.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a bathroom, the main bedroom boasting a panelled wall and bespoke range of built in wardrobes as well as an ensuite shower room. Bedroom two also has a cupboard and there is a door into the family bathroom effectively offering a second ensuite facility.
OUTSIDE
To the front is block paved parking for 2 vehicles then a small garden and paved path up to the entrance.
At the rear sits a flagstone patio and fully enclosed lawn. An exterior light and tap are provided and a gated access at the end leads round to the front of the house.
LOCATION
In the ancient division of the county, Waddesdon Parish was of great extent. The name is a combination of a person’s name and ‘ DUN’ in old English, translating to Wotts Hill. The village is steeped in history, a large account is written in ‘MAGNA BRITTANNIA’ in 1806 concerning its famous connections. There is a church of Norman origins and the old Roman Military Road, Akeman Street used to pass through the place. A branch of the Aylesbury and Tring silk manufactory was established in the village in 1843 employing some 40 females at hand loom weaving but has long since gone.
Of some renown is the magnificent Waddesdon Manor, the recently refurbished Rothschild Mansion. Baron Ferdinand De Rothschild bought the land in 1874, it is said he picked the site for his residence after hunting in the area.
The village has excellent pre schools with a junior and highly sought after secondary school.
The nearby market towns and villages provide a wealth of historical and interesting places to visit including the local Waddesdon Manor, Claydon House and Quainton Steam Railway. Extensive shopping facilities are situated at Bicester Village Retail Outlet, the Friar’s Square Centre in Aylesbury, Milton Keynes and Oxford. The village itself offers a great convenience Store with a post office, a popular coffee shop, hairdressers salon, a Doctor’s Surgery, dentist, vet, charity shop, pubs, the Five Arrows Hotel and an Indian Restaurant, and Chinese takeaway/fish and chips. There are also tennis and bowls clubs.
Aylesbury is about 5miles with the Aylesbury Vale Parkway station providing frequent service to Marylebone, just a five minute drive away in Fleet Marston/Berryfields. Haddenham/Thame Parkway station is about 8 miles away, providing rail links to London and Birmingham. The market town of Thame is about 9 miles and Oxford is approx. 26 miles.
