Lower Brook End is a charming country house enjoying far reaching views over the adjoining farmland. It is in a peaceful and private setting with open space surrounding the property. Originally dating back to the 16th Century, the house
has grown over the years, as different owners have extended and adapted the house. The principal living space within the house is of particular note with an outstanding, triple aspect, drawing room with its large inglenook fireplace. The
galleried reception hall has wonderful original beams and panelling and the bright kitchen/breakfast room, which is in the heart of the house is spacious and perfect for family use. Directly off the kitchen is the family room, with large,
glazed doors leading to the terrace to the rear of the property.

The old stable block currently incorporates a garden kitchen and a generous amount of storage space. Further ancillary
accommodation can be found in The Granary and The Cottage.

The additions include a large open plan kitchen with connecting three bedroom guest house, playroom, sitting room, sauna, study and a formal drawing room. In
the grounds, there is also planning for a four-car garage, extensive landscaping and an outdoor swimming pool. Architects floorplans and elevations can be obtained from the vendors' agents.

Gardens and grounds

Lower Brook End is beautifully positioned in about 2.75 acres. The property is approached via a sweeping gravel driveway, winding through established gardens to a large turning area in front of the house. The gardens for the most part are formal lawned sections, with established shrub borders and wonderful specimen trees. Boundaries on all sides are made up of mainly hawthorn hedgerows, plus some high laurel screening. To the rear of the gardens there is a well-presented tennis court as well as a pond.
There is a wonderful walled garden to the south of the property. The gardens are part-terraced, part laid to grass, with a wonderful, central ornamental feature. The terraced section benefits from the shelter of a large pergola and is linked to the outside kitchen, perfect for outdoor entertaining.


Lower Brook End is well-located in the peaceful hamlet of Littleworth Common on the Buckingahamshire/Berkshire border adjacent to the historic Burnham Beeches.

1866. From here, communications are excellent for Central London, Oxford and the West Country, with regular rail connections, both to London Paddington from nearby Burnham and from Beaconsfield to London Marylebone.
