Kingston House is a handsome Victorian manor house positioned on the edge of the village, hidden at the end of a long driveway, flanked by parkland. It is in a beautiful setting with views across its own land, at the bottom of the Chilterns escarpment. The house offers the perfect combination of grand entertaining spaces and less formal family accommodation; the principal part has been recently renovated with new heating, electrics and plumbing for a hotel specification.

The house is arranged over four floors, including the extensive basement. The ground floor comprises a large welcoming reception hall, with doors off to the drawing room and dining room, which connects to the kitchen/breakfast room and family sitting room. There is also a playroom, estate office, boot pantry, utility room and two WCs.

Upstairs there is a principal bedroom suite with dressing room and en suite bathroom, three further bedroom suites, a fifth bedroom and separate family shower room, all on the first floor. The second floor includes a further bedroom suite, four further bedrooms and a family bathroom, as well as attic storage space.

With its own separate access from the outside, Kingston House Cottage also connects to the main house, if required, and comprises a sitting room and kitchen/ breakfast room on the ground floor with a family room with WC and three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor. It has its own separate garden and outbuildings.

Approached by a long driveway with a copper beech avenue, there is ample parking at the side of the house. A paved terrace wraps around two sides of the house, leading out to the predominantly lawned gardens with grass paddocks beyond, with mature parkland trees. The soil is well-drained chalk, ideal for grazing. To the north of the house, there is a stable yard with twenty stables, an old granary, a washroom, a foaling box, tack rooms, machinery and food stores.

In all about 36.80 acres
