4 bed detached house for sale

Little Lane, Princes Risborough HP27

A beautifully designed contemporary home with breathtaking Chiltern views, exceptional entertaining space and a wonderfully peaceful setting. There is something instantly special about this home. Set in an elevated position overlooking the rolling Chiltern countryside, this striking four-bedroom house combines sophisticated contemporary design with a wonderful sense of calm, privacy and connection to the landscape.

Thoughtfully designed around modern family life, the house is filled with natural light and has an effortless flow between its generous living spaces and the garden beyond. At its heart is the impressive open-plan dining and living space, centred around a beautifully appointed German Häcker kitchen with quartz surfaces, integrated appliances and a sociable island. Bi-fold doors open onto the terrace, creating an exceptional space for entertaining or simply enjoying the ever-changing views. The ground floor also provides a beautifully appointed dedicated home office, fitted with bespoke Neville Johnson carpentry, creating a practical yet elegant workspace.

The accommodation is arranged over three levels, with four generous double bedrooms on the first floor. The principal suite is particularly impressive, with its vaulted ceiling, dressing area, luxurious en suite and private balcony overlooking the Chilterns. The sellers say the balcony has become their sanctuary – a place to enjoy a morning coffee while listening to birdsong or unwind in the evening while watching the sun set across the countryside. It is easy to see why, with the far-reaching westerly views providing a spectacular backdrop throughout the day. A further bedroom also benefits from an en suite, while a stylish family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

The lower ground floor adds valuable flexibility, with a substantial utility room and a naturally lit space currently used as a gym, but equally suited to a cinema room, playroom or additional living space.

Outside, the landscaped westerly-facing garden has been designed to make the most of its elevated position. Terraced seating areas, established planting and a charming summerhouse at the bottom of the garden create a series of spaces for entertaining, relaxing and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The sellers particularly love the way the garden evolves through the seasons, with flowers, ornamental grasses and bulbs creating an ever-changing tapestry of colour and texture.

The house was professionally interior designed and beautifully decorated, so little was required when the sellers moved in. More recently, ultrafast fibre broadband has enhanced home working, providing fast and reliable connectivity for modern lifestyle. The wood-burning stove adds warmth and atmosphere on colder evenings, complementing the underfloor heating across the principal living level.

To the front, a generous driveway provides ample parking and leads to a detached double garage, with electric door and a hard-wearing resin floor.

The Sellers say:

Copperfield offers a rare combination of tranquility and togetherness. There is always somewhere to escape and enjoy a moment of peace, yet when friends and family gather, the house comes to life and provides the perfect space for entertaining. It’s a home that feels both peaceful and welcoming. Every bit as impressive as the architecture itself.

The Location

Occupying an enviable position within an idyllic Chiltern hamlet, Copperfield enjoys some of the most outstanding views across the surrounding Chiltern Hills. The setting is wonderfully peaceful and rural, yet remains well connected, with a local pub and St John’s Primary School in nearby Lacey Green. Grammar school education is available in both Aylesbury and High Wycombe.

The thriving market town of Princes Risborough is just a short drive away, offering an excellent range of everyday amenities including Tesco, an M&S Foodhall, independent shops, pubs, restaurants, library and leisure centre. The mainline railway station provides direct connections towards London, Oxford and Aylesbury.
