7 CASTLE STREET A deceptively spacious Grade II listed family home which is situated right in the heart of Buckingham town centre and comprises entrance hall, breakfast kitchen, sitting room, cellar which offers a utility room and second reception/TV room, four bedrooms, two bathrooms and superb rear garden.



A superbly presented and deceptively spacious Grade II listed family home which is situated right in the heart of the town and just a short walk from all of the amenities offered in the centre of Buckingham. Also ideally situated for local Grammar schools, this four storey home has been beautifully cared for by the current owners and an internal viewing is essential. Upon entering, the hall has tiled flooring, a door to the rear, and stairs to the upper levels. The breakfast kitchen has ample workspace, a Rangemaster oven, dishwasher, space for a table to seat six guests, and a sash window to the front with a window seat. The sitting room has a wood burning stove, a window to the rear, and access to the cellar. The two chamber cellar offers flexible space and currently houses a useful utility room and an additional reception/TV room. The first floor landing has a storage cupboard and stairs rising to the second floor. The feature bedroom has built in wardrobes, a feature fireplace and a window to the front. The other double bedroom on this level has a window to the rear, whilst completing the accommodation on this floor is an outstanding bathroom which has a freestanding bath and large walk in shower. There are two further bedrooms on the second floor which are serviced by the guest bathroom.



Seller Insight Buckingham is an established market town in Buckinghamshire, on the borders of Northamptonshire and Oxfordshire, and is surrounded with an abundance of open green pastureland to explore. Whilst enjoying easy access to the town, this fascinating four-storey family home, built around 1750, is tucked gently away from the main thoroughfare and has been the treasured home for Fred and Lauren for the past ten years. “7 Castle Street has been lovingly cared for over the years and we’ve added to its charm and comforts whilst respecting its unique history. The house has served us well over the years, as a professional couple enjoying its proximity to Buckingham’s bars, restaurants and rail links to London, to its role now as our family home when our two young children came along. It is an extremely welcoming house which we enjoy sharing with our friends and family, especially on cold winter days when the fire is aglow in the sitting room and the room seems to take on its own special ambience, and warm summer days in the garden with wonderful views of the church spire. “One of the major projects we undertook was to have the garden professionally landscaped. It is now such a stunning and private area. It is so peaceful and tranquil out there and is another space we enjoy sharing with our loved ones for friendly BBQs and other social gatherings. We also converted the front part of the cellar into a utility room with storage; to have everything tucked away down there is great. ” “Buckingham has excellent amenities, including schools, shops, coffee shops, bars and restaurants, together with lovely parks and river walks nearby. We have Stowe Gardens literally a couple minutes’ drive away, and the beautiful city of Oxford is easy to visit to enjoy its architecture, museums etc. Milton Keynes is very close and has plenty of shopping and leisure facilities, plus great rail links to London, the Midlands and the North. In addition, the renowned Bicester Village shopping outlet is nearby..“ “We looked long and hard whilst house hunting in the area and had a list of what we wanted in our next home. Initially, 7 Castle Street didn’t tick all the boxes we had but we just fell in love with everything about the house - our decision was immediate. We have been so happy and content living here, it’s a stunning house and a great location. We know that whoever decides to live here will love it.”*

Outside, the rear garden is partly laid to lawn with a recently added large patio area and a useful brick built storage outbuilding. There is a lovely area at the top of the garden for enjoying alfresco dining or drinks with friends. Please note the parking arrangement is on street parking where there are many areas to park close to the property on a first come first serve basis. A very deceptive home which must be seen.



LOCATION Castle Street is situated in the centre of Buckingham and is conveniently located for the M40 which provides easy access to Birmingham, Oxford, Bicester and London, whilst the local train network provides a commute to Marylebone in under an hour.
