5 bedroom Detached house For Sale

Nestled in the heart of the sought-after Buckinghamshire village of Bledlow Ridge, Christmas Cottage perfectly combines modern family living with character features and exceptional flexibility. Until recently, home to a thriving nursery business, the property offers a rare level of versatility seldom found in a village home. Set within a thriving village community, the property enjoys easy access to beautiful countryside walks, a highly regarded primary school, village shop, community-owned pub, café, tennis courts, playground, cricket club and an active village hall that sits at the centre of village life.

Beyond the village, the market town of Princes Risborough is just a short drive away, whilst Marlow offers boutique shopping, restaurants and riverside attractions. For commuters, direct rail services from Princes Risborough reach London Marylebone in approximately 35 minutes.

The main house offers generous and well-balanced accommodation arranged over three floors. At its heart is a welcoming sitting room featuring an attractive fireplace and doors opening onto a private garden dining terrace. A separate dining room showcases exposed brickwork, while the well-appointed kitchen, study/snug and cloakroom provide practical family living space. Upstairs are five well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, together with a family bathroom serving the remaining bedrooms.

However, the true hidden gem of Christmas Cottage is its substantial and highly adaptable additional accommodation. Formerly home to a successful nursery business, this self-contained area benefits from its own entrance, kitchen facilities, bathroom and private patio area to the front of the property. Offering excellent separation from the main house, it presents an exciting opportunity for those seeking space to run a business from home, create guest accommodation, establish an Airbnb venture, provide independent living for relatives or simply enjoy additional recreational and hobby space.

Outside, the property benefits from a two-tier garden with a lawned upper level and a lower terrace ideal for entertaining, al fresco dining and summer barbecues. To the front, there is driveway parking for two vehicles and a large garage providing excellent storage space.

Christmas Cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial family home in one of Buckinghamshire's most desirable villages.
