Description

This distinctive detached family home presents a compelling opportunity for renovation and investment. Situated on a generous plot of nearly three-quarters of an acre, the property is adjacent to Burnham Beeches, offering an enviable blend of privacy and natural beauty along a gated road. This is the first time this unique residence has come to market in 50 years, giving potential buyers a rare chance to own a house with rich history. The home's flexible layout spans two floors and includes five bedrooms, plus an annexe that could serve a variety of purposes—ideal for extended family living or as a separate rental unit. The main house features spacious accommodations, particularly on the ground floor, which comprises a reception hall, dining area, piano room, family room, kitchen/breakfast/sitting room, utility room, and a downstairs bathroom. The annexe offers its own sitting room and kitchen area alongside an additional bedroom and shower room. Recent improvements include a new roof on both wings of the house with a transferable 10-year warranty. While the property has been well maintained over the years, some areas may benefit from modernization. Planning permission has already been granted for significant expansions to both levels of the home under reference number PL/23/2251/FA, allowing potential buyers to customize and enhance their living space further. The outdoor space is equally impressive. The gardens are enveloped by mature trees providing both beauty and privacy. Multiple parking areas can accommodate several vehicles; one could even be designated for the annexe. A large raised timber deck serves as an excellent alfresco entertaining space—perfect for gatherings in tranquil surroundings—while additional decked seating areas provide further options for enjoying the outdoors. Located within walking distance of Burnham Beeches and just minutes from Farnham Common village center—which features various shops, bars, and restaurants—this property strikes a balance between serene living and convenient access to community amenities. With its overall size, setting, and significant renovation potential, this home represents an attractive opportunity in today’s market that merits consideration from serious investors or families looking for their next project.
