Description

DESCRIPTION Upper Street as the name suggests spans the top end of the village offering views towards Waddesdon and further afield. Number 40 is a circa 1900’s dwelling with beamed and rendered elevations beneath a clay tile roof, and it sits in an excellent plot, much of the garden to the front. At the entrance is a glazed porch stretching across the front of the house providing either a seating area to enjoy the southerly outlook or a boot room with ample space for everyone’s coats and footwear. There is lighting and a quarry tiled floor. In the hall is the staircase and the understairs former cupboard is now a cloakroom with a wc and wash basin. There are two reception rooms, the one nearest the kitchen having a fireplace currently containing a Parkray. Double doors lead out to the garden in this room and an internal door provides access to the kitchen. Along the side of this room running from the hall to the kitchen is a corridor/larder, and a sizeable larder at that. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with laminated units and worktops and spaces are available for appliances including a water softener which is in situ. The oil boiler stands in the old fireplace and off the far end of the kitchen is a passageway and then shed and gardeners toilet. On the first floor are two excellent double bedrooms and a large single, along with a bathroom. The two double bedrooms have built in wardrobes, the middle room with extensive storage. Each also retain the original fireplaces, one cast iron example on show and the other either covered over or removed. The smaller bedroom is at the back of the property and enjoys a dual aspect. The bathroom has a white suite and tiled walls with a Mira shower over the bath. The loft is boarded in some parts and has a light. It is a generous open loft and has decent head height in the apex. OUTSIDE Initially the block paved driveway is shared by the neighbour then though it spurs off to the right and the houses own private driveway and ultimately the detached garage. The long front garden has grass and a vegetable patch, all half bounded by mature hedge with shaped conifers and trees including apple, a holly, and two lovely beeches. A rose bed is to the left of the drive. Between the house and the garage is a wrought iron gate into the side garden which is paved. The side and rear garden are mainly paths and patios incorporated around planted beds, the side forming a secluded courtyard. Immediately to the back of the house are covered loggias/stores. The rear garden, being higher, is accessed via steps and within it is a greenhouse. Again, hedging surrounds the gardens. The garage is of brick construction with a pitched clay tile roof and a wooden up and over door. The floor is concrete, power and lighting are connected, and storage can be found on the rafters.
