Description

A substantial four-bedroom residence extending to approximately 3,111 sq ft, forming the central section of a Grade II listed Arts and Crafts country house, which was divided into three wings during the 1970s. Set within approximately 2.15 acres of mature private grounds, the property is approached via a long driveway and enjoys a peaceful rural setting, surrounded by open farmland and a riding school, while remaining in close proximity to the sought-after village of Wooburn Green, Buckinghamshire. Each of the three wings benefits from its own private, secluded grounds, offering a high degree of privacy and tranquillity.

Sheepcote Manor is an exceptional and distinctive country home, combining period character with beautifully presented and versatile accommodation. Dating from 1914 and Grade II listed, the property features striking red-brick elevations, timber framing, steep tiled roofs and traditional leaded windows.

Approached via a private gravel driveway, the house is set within beautifully landscaped, mature gardens, with established planting, expansive lawns and a covered terrace creating a wonderfully private setting.

Inside, the elegant entrance hall leads to the principal reception spaces, including an impressive drawing room with a feature fireplace, wood burner and bay window overlooking the gardens, alongside a characterful dining room with its own wood burner, ideal for entertaining. A beautifully appointed kitchen features bespoke-style cabinetry, stone work surfaces and a generous central island. A guest cloakroom and separate utility room complete the ground floor, providing both convenience and practical additional space.

Upstairs, a magnificent galleried landing leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys an en-suite shower room with underfloor heating, fitted storage and views across the grounds. The family bathroom also benefits from underfloor heating. Bedroom four is currently arranged as a games room/home office, offering excellent flexibility to suit the needs of the next owner.

With its impressive architecture, generous proportions, mature private grounds and versatile accommodation, Sheepcote Manor offers a rare opportunity to acquire a truly distinctive Buckinghamshire home.

Gardens and Grounds

Outside, the extensive grounds are undoubtedly one of Sheepcote Manor's defining features. Mature woodland, established borders and expansive lawns create a wonderfully private backdrop, with a covered terrace immediately adjoining the house and providing a natural extension to the living space during the warmer months.
