Water Stratford, Buckingham, MK18

A Light-Filled Barn Conversion Style Home with Gallery Landing, South-West Garden and Wonderful Village Setting | Tithe Barn, Water Stratford

The Home

Tithe Barn is a home that feels instantly reassuring. Built around 25 years ago in a traditional barn style, it offers the character and architectural interest of a conversion, combined with the practicality and efficiency of a more modern build.

Extending to over 2,000 sq ft, the accommodation is generous, balanced and filled with natural light. The standout feature is undoubtedly the principal living room. With its vaulted ceiling rising to a beautiful gallery above, exposed beams and a striking sense of volume, it is a space that feels both impressive and comfortable. It is easy to imagine winter evenings gathered around the fireplace, or summer days with doors open to the garden and children moving freely between inside and out.

The galleried landing above enhances the architectural feel of the home, creating a lovely visual connection between floors and allowing light to travel through the space. It gives the house personality without compromising on warmth.

The kitchen and dining area provide a sociable hub for everyday life. Well proportioned and practical, it is a space where family meals, homework at the table and entertaining friends can all happen with ease. A separate utility room keeps day to day life organised, while a dedicated study offers valuable flexibility for home working or quiet retreat.

Upstairs, the bedrooms are comfortable and thoughtfully arranged. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite, as does a guest bedroom, making the layout ideal for visiting family or growing children. Two further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the first floor. The property has been carefully maintained and benefits from a brand new boiler installed in 2025, offering peace of mind for years to come.

The Garden

The rear garden enjoys a desirable south west facing aspect, capturing afternoon and evening sun and creating a bright and uplifting outdoor space. Enclosed by a brick wall and fencing, with the rear fence and gate owned by the property, it feels private and secure, particularly well suited to families with young children.

Mainly laid to lawn with space for seating and outdoor dining, the garden is easy to maintain yet generous enough to enjoy fully. It is a place for summer barbecues, children’s play and relaxed evenings as the sun sets.

To the front, the property benefits from driveway parking for three vehicles, in addition to a garage with power. There is also shared space within the cul-de-sac and additional parking available nearby towards the paddock area, making the setting both practical and accommodating for visitors.

The Location

Water Stratford is a friendly and active North Buckinghamshire village, positioned conveniently between Buckingham and Brackley. It offers the kind of environment where neighbours know one another and children can play safely within the cul-de-sac.

The surrounding countryside provides a wealth of walking routes directly from the front door, ideal for dog walkers, families and those who simply enjoy being outdoors. Despite its peaceful atmosphere, the village remains well connected to nearby market towns and commuter routes.

The property sits within catchment for the Royal Latin School and is well placed for respected independent options including Beachborough. For families seeking a strong community feel, accessible schooling and a safe, welcoming setting, Tithe Barn offers a lifestyle that is increasingly hard to find.
