This distinguished 4/5 bedroom barn conversion is a home of rare versatility and charm, thoughtfully refined over recent years to achieve the perfect balance of timeless elegance and modern practicality. Designed with family living in mind and offering the flexibility for multi generational use, the property sits within approximately half an acre of beautifully landscaped grounds. A sweeping, full-length driveway provides ample parking, while a substantial out building offers a detached double open car barn with a versatile office or studio above, as well as an adjoining shed and storage room. The gardens are a true delight, showcasing graceful pergolas, raised vegetable plots and a greenhouse, while a secluded rear courtyard provides a tranquil space ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining.



Inside, the property retains its rustic character while embracing contemporary comforts, with a layout carefully crafted for both everyday living and special occasions. The welcoming entrance hall provides generous space for guests and practical storage, before opening into the heart of the home a spacious kitchen/dining room filled with natural light from a wide picture window overlooking the gardens. Traditional in style yet highly functional, the kitchen is centred around a three-oven AGA, with additional electric appliances to provide convenience during warmer months. Granite worktops, a breakfast bar and classic slate flooring complete the space with understated sophistication.

Adjoining this, a utility room with Butler`s sink and space for laundry appliances adds practicality, while a ground-floor WC and shower room offer further convenience.

The flow of the ground floor lends itself beautifully to entertaining and flexible family living. A formal dining area comfortably accommodates ten guests, while a separate study provides a private working space that could equally serve as a fifth bedroom. Bedroom four is thoughtfully positioned opposite the ground-floor shower room and enjoys its own external access to the courtyard an ideal arrangement for guests, older relatives or independent family members.

The magnificent living room is the true centrepiece of the home, boasting an impressive vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, a striking brick fireplace with log burner, and a full-height window stretching over 2.6 metres wide, framing views across the quiet country lane. Further ground-floor amenities include an airing cupboard and integrated water softening system, combining character with everyday convenience.



The first floor continues to balance style with comfort. The master suite enjoys its own ensuite shower room and built-in wardrobes, creating a private and tranquil retreat. The second bedroom is exceptionally spacious and benefits from extensive fitted wardrobes along one wall, while the third, a bright and welcoming small double, overlooks the courtyard and is perfectly suited for children or visiting guests. The generous family bathroom is designed for relaxation and practicality alike, offering both a corner bath and a separate shower.

Throughout the ground floor, underfloor heating with individual room controls ensures comfort year-round, while smart meters and energy monitoring systems provide efficiency and peace of mind.



Externally, the grounds are truly exceptional, reflecting the care and attention invested in creating beautifully landscaped spaces. At the end of the sweeping driveway sits a substantial outbuilding, comprising a detached double open car barn with a versatile room above ideal as a home office, studio, or creative retreat. Adjoining this is an additional shed/storage room, ensuring ample practical space for outdoor living. The gardens themselves are a joy to explore, with thoughtfully planted borders, charming pergolas, raised vegetable beds and a greenhouse, offering both beauty and productivity throughout the seasons.

Set in a uniquely tranquil setting, tucked away on a quiet no-through lane in the heart of the Chiltern Hills. The lane is shared with just one neighbouring property, situated 300 metres further along, which ensures virtually no passing traffic. Access is limited to local residents, deliveries and essential services, reinforcing the sense of peace and seclusion. From the doorstep, scenic trails and countryside walks invite outdoor pursuits, while the rolling Chiltern landscape provides a picturesque backdrop to everyday life.

Despite its rural charm, the property benefits from excellent connectivity. Several nearby railway stations provide direct links to London Marylebone in under an hour as well as connections to Birmingham, while the M40 and A41 give swift access to the national motorway network.

The nearby town offers an extensive range of shopping, leisure, and amenities, together with a wide choice of both state and independent schools, including the highly regarded Aylesbury Grammar Schools. Surrounded by open fields and nestled within the peaceful hamlet of Marsh, Willowbrook Barn offers the perfect balance of timeless rural living with the convenience of modern accessibility.
