Farnham Common offers an excellent range of shops, restaurants and cafes for everyday needs. Both Gerrards Cross and Beaconsfield offer more comprehensive facilities.
The nearby historic, protected ancient woodland of Burnham Beeches gives hundreds of acres of extensive walks and bridleways together with a picturesque setting. A variety of sports are offered at Farnham Common Sports Club.
There are rail connections to London Paddington from Burnham (Elizabeth Line) and connections to Marylebone from Gerrards Cross and Beaconsfield. The M40 and M4 motorways provide excellent access to the national motorway network, London and Heathrow.
Buckinghamshire is one of the last counties to maintain the grammar school system, including Burnham Grammar School (about 3 miles away) and Beaconsfield High School. There are several school buses with bus stops in Farnham Common. Independent schools include Godstowe, High March and Wycombe Abbey (for girls), Caldicott and Davenies (for boys) and Dair House (for boys and girls), to name a few.
Description
Dating back to the 1890s, with later additions, this detached property is full of character and quirky nooks and crannies. The property has been extended and now offers versatile living space over two floors. Magnolia Cottage is ideally situated in a pretty tree lined residential road in the heart of Farnham Common and on the edge of Burnham Beeches, yet conveniently situated for travel in to London.
The front door opens in to a useful entrance porch, perfect for coats and boots and leads through to the spacious reception hall which could easily accommodate a reading nook/study area. Beyond the hall is a large utility room, guest cloakroom and a games room with access into the garage. Just off the reception hall is a spacious sitting room, ideal for a family and with a fireplace as a focal point. This room enjoys lovely garden views to the front and French doors open on to the pretty courtyard to the rear. The open plan kitchen/dining/family room is a generous space, with French doors to the garden allowing for indoor/outdoor entertaining. The kitchen itself is well equipped with an array of storage units and integrated appliances. In addition, there is ample room for a seating and dining area. Completing the ground floor is a generous study just off the kitchen, overlooking the courtyard and ideal for home working.
The bedroom accommodation is arranged on the first floor and can be accessed by two separate staircases. A particular highlight is the principal bedroom suite which is a vast room, benefiting from a separate fully fitted dressing room. In addition is a shower room and an adjacent study which could be utilised as an occasional bedroom or incorporated in to the dressing room. There are two further bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room while the remaining bedroom is served by a family shower room.
To the front is a large driveway fronted by electric gates and providing ample parking. There is a good sized area of lawn to the front, which enjoys a good deal of privacy and serves as the primary outdoor area. To the rear a pretty courtyard garden is perfect for outside dining and entertaining.
