Station Road, Quainton, Buckinghamshire.

Millfield House was originally a more modest dwelling which has been extended over the years and transformed into a sizeable family home. The current owners have invested heavily into the equestrian accoutrements, which are outstanding, and there is scope for further uses with the garaging presenting the possibility for an annexe or maybe home offices or a studio or workshops (subject to planning consent).

In the entrance hall is oak flooring, the staircase occupying the far end of the hall. There two reception rooms at the front of the house, a family room and snug perhaps, although one is currently a treatment/therapy room that benefits from an attractive selection of fitted storage. Further up is a shower room with a wc and basin and then a utility room, the latter with a tiled floor, cupboards and an alcove shelved to accommodate the stacking of the washing machine and tumbler dryer. The kitchen floor is porcelain and the room is adorned with bespoke Farrow & Ball Hardwick White units and white quartz counters and backstands incorporating a wine rack, butlers sink and a wonderful concealed larder. Remaining is the electric Aga equipped with an induction hob and hot plate, 3 ovens and pan/tray compartment. The lobby, prior to outside, has great space for coats and boots.
The porcelain floor continues in the dining room, a room that can comfortably seat a crowd, and there is a conservatory and sitting room flanking the dining room, all combining to form an excellent area for entertaining. A wall of the sitting room bears painted wooden panelling and central is a handsome stone and black granite fireplace. From the conservatory you can watch over the gardens and yard. The kitchen, dining room and conservatory all benefit from underfloor heating.
On the first floor are four bedrooms, all doubles, two served by the family bathroom, itself with a white suite including a freestanding roll top bath and an independent shower cubicle with handheld and overhead showers. There is a choice of two ensuite bedrooms, a guest and principal in either order, one having a wall of wardrobes and a bathroom, again with a freestanding roll top bath, the other a dressing area and shower room. The second floor loft conversion has created a large bedroom that once more has its own shower room.

OUTSIDE
There are extensive south westerly formal gardens starting at the stone terrace which is partly walled onto a lawn bordered by shrubs and neatly manicured hedging. The lawn widens out to take in the orchard comprising of half a dozen mature apple trees. A long shingle drive running alongside the house provides easy access to the facilities. Firstly a steel framed, timber clad barn with a concrete floor and big concrete apron. This barn suits a variety of uses as mentioned previously. Attached is a block built stable or feed room.

At the bottom of the drive is the gated stableyard with cobbled sets. Oak framed, block base under a slate roof are 3 stables, a foaling box and a fitted tack room, the tack room benefitting from a hearty rug/blanket box and cube shelving unit. Behind the stabling is a 27ft x 17ft all weather turn out pen and a hay barn.

The manege is 40m x 20m, post and railed, mirrored, floodlit and with a Martin Collins all weather waxed CLOPF surface and a track of the same waxed CLOPF surface links the manege to the stables.

Beyond are the paddocks consisting of level pasture, the whole plot some 2.8 acres (1.137 Ha)

In between the two yards is hardstanding for lorries and a pond that spends much of the summer dry but helps drain the ground through the winter.

Mains power, lighting and water are connected to both yards and the manege floodlights are on a generator.

The property abuts countryside with a view of the Chiltern Hills in the distance, said view particularly prevalent from the houses first floor rear aspect.
