St John’s House entices discerning buyers in Buckinghamshire

Discerning purchasers in Buckinghamshire have been drawn to a new show home in Harvest Hill. St John’s House, an exclusive five-bedroom grand country home, has been attracting a high quality of buyer – those looking for something elegant, yet impressive.

Accessed directly from Harvest Hill and set among generous private grounds, the property has views across to picturesque Winter Hill and beyond. It is also located within five miles of the centre of Beaconsfield, recently described as one of the most desirable towns in the country. This impressive setting continues once you enter the grounds of the property, through a private gated entrance, where the imposing façade of St John’s House awaits.

Internally, the home has been professionally styled to Millgate’s exacting brief by Alexander James Interiors, offering the perfect balance between tradition and sophistication – and finished to an outstanding specification. The neutral colour scheme accentuates the natural light which floods in, courtesy of large windows, while opulent furnishings complement the luxurious lifestyle which living here will afford.

Mandie Whelan, senior sales manager at Millgate Homes, comments: “Since we launched this property, we have been impressed by the high quality of visitors. The desirability of Harvest Hill, combined with the fact that there is nothing on a comparable level anywhere in the area, makes this home a rare opportunity which discerning purchasers won’t want to miss.”

As one would expect of a property with such pedigree, St John’s House offers accommodation on an impressive scale. On the ground floor, the grand entrance hall provides access to a vast open-plan living space, encompassing the kitchen, family room and an orangery. This expansive area looks out towards to the south-facing garden which features manicured lawns and established foliage, beautifully designed and planted by Millgate Homes’ Chelsea award-winning landscaper, as well as an outdoor dining and seating area. The ground floor is completed by a separate formal drawing room, dining room, study and cloakroom.

The first floor houses most of the bedrooms, all with an en suite. The master bedroom is an impressive space, comparable with the type of luxury suites found in the world’s top five-star hotels. It enjoys separate living and sleeping areas, a private terrace, accessed via French doors, a dedicated dressing room and generous en suite. Each of these spaces in the room is individually defined, giving it the feel of an apartment within the home, rather than a bedroom.

On the second floor is the remaining bedroom, again with an en suite, and a large bonus room which can be used as a home cinema suite, games room or whatever meets the individual needs of the purchaser. Overall, this home has been meticulously planned to provide ample space for family life and entertaining, on an impressive scale.
