Buckinghamshire, £2.6 million
Situated half a mile from Gerrards Cross station (itself only 18 minutes from London Marylebone), Cranford is an elegant home ideal for a growing family or perhaps those looking to downsize from a larger country house. With five bedrooms and four reception rooms behind its white pebbledash façade, the property offers the best of both worlds, combining a countryside feel within a suburban setting, as well as a tasteful mix of old and new within the interiors.
A modern kitchen/dining room is a particular highlight, featuring luxurious cabinetry and a large central island with hob, as well as large bi-folding doors that lead directly to the garden. Other amenities include a double garage, a connected annexe (if required), wine cellar and a two-storey principal bedroom suite. Hamptons (01753 415264)
