For Sale4 Bedroom Detached House in Woburn Road, Woburn Sands, Milton Keynes£1,250,000

Nestled behind a dense screen of mature trees stands this impressive pre Victorian property which was built circa 1830 for John, the 6th Duke of Bedford. The property has reflections towards a more "Jacobean" style of construction with its tall chimneys and patterned roof tiling. Defining the facade is a centrally located two storey gabled entrance porch with a string course at first floor level whilst the windows on the front elevation have distinctive octagonal leading set within stone mouldings. Our owners have great respect for the architectural and historical significance of the property and in recent years have undertaken an intricate and dedicated restoration of the tall chimneys and roof tiling to ensure that the original character of the property is maintained. Although surrounded by woods and countryside the Grade II listed Fir Tree Cottage stands impressively within almost 1 acre of garden and is located within easy walking distance of Woburn Sands shopping, restaurants and schooling. It is a gem of a property for a family seeking seclusion whilst at the same time retaining close proximity to all amenities.
