Aston Clinton

DESCRIPTION
Steeped in history, The Vatches is a fine example of a late Georgian home, forming part of a former farmhouse of considerable character and charm. This enchanting property has been the subject of thoughtful and sympathetic improvement in recent years, successfully blending period elegance with comfortable modern living. The spacious accommodation retains a wealth of original features, including sash windows with original shutters, open fireplaces, stripped original wood flooring, high ceilings and beautifully proportioned rooms throughout. Of particular note is the generous entrance hall, which creates an immediate sense of arrival and is centred around a striking staircase reflecting the home's Georgian heritage. The kitchen/dining room forms the heart of the home and is superbly appointed, featuring a range cooker, AGA fireplace, integrated appliances and ample space for dining and entertaining, all complemented by the warmth of the original flooring. The sitting room is a wonderful space for both relaxation and entertaining, with an open fireplace and pleasant views across the gardens. Accessed from the main entrance hall, the lower ground floor provides a luxurious and highly versatile additional living space. This level features an impressive cinema room, creating a superb private retreat that could equally serve as a third bedroom or additional reception room if required. Completing the lower ground floor is a valuable utility room, offering practical storage and workspace while remaining discreetly positioned away from the main living accommodation. The property offers two large double bedrooms, both enjoying fine views over the surrounding countryside, excellent natural light and a calm, inviting atmosphere. A recently refitted bathroom has been finished to a high standard, complementing the period character while providing contemporary comfort. Externally, the grounds are a standout feature and have been beautifully maintained. The Vatches is approached via a private gated driveway leading to an extensive parking area providing plentiful off-street parking, enclosed by attractive iron fencing. Electric supply has been installed to the entrance gates, allowing for automation if required. The gardens are extremely private and thoughtfully arranged, laid predominantly to lawn and bordered by close-board fencing. A sunken firepit with seating and lighting creates a charming outdoor focal point, ideal for entertaining. Two versatile outbuildings offer a range of potential uses, including storage, studio or home office accommodation. Offering timeless elegance, privacy and historical significance, The Vatches represents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive Georgian home in a highly sought-after village location.
