Menmarsh Road Worminghall, Aylesbury

Birch Tree House is a beautifully presented four bedroom detached home in the highly regarded village of Worminghall. The current owners have extended and upgraded the property to create a superb modern family home, with well planned living space arranged over two floors and a seamless connection to the garden via Schuco bi fold doors, making it ideal for entertaining.
Within the last six months the property has also benefited from new windows, new carpets upstairs and a new boiler, adding to its turnkey appeal.
At the heart of the house is an impressive open plan kitchen and dining room, finished to an excellent specification with Neff appliances, Silestone worktops, Fired Earth tiles and underfloor heating. The living room enjoys a peaceful outlook over the enclosed garden and offers a warm, characterful space, a library/music area and an inviting multi fuel stove for the colder months.

Outside, the home continues to impress with enclosed, mature private gardens to one side and a stylish, sunny courtyard garden to the other along with a powered 8ft x 6ft shed and external lighting.
There is off street parking for two vehicles, along with side and rear gardens, all combining to provide a lovely balance of privacy, practicality and village life, with excellent access to Oxford, Thame and Bicester.

Location:
Worminghall is a highly sought after village which is in the catchment for the Aylesbury grammar schools and Wheatley Park Secondary School (subject to the usual acceptance). The local primary school, served by a school bus, is in the neighbouring village of Ickford, and is in the top 0.1% of schools in England. Ickford pupils also transfer to Lord William's School in Thame for secondary education.
Worminghall benefits from a Grade II listed Norman church, an active village community and the popular Clifden Arms, now with a children’s play area close by. The village is circa 8 miles from Oxford with all its shopping and leisure amenities along with the universities and hospitals.
The market town of Thame is around a 10 minute drive offering a wide range of shops and amenities, Bicester's amenities, including the popular Bicester Village are approximately 11 miles away. Haddenham and Thame Parkway station is around a 15 minute drive enabling access to London Marylebone within an hour. Worminghall is located around 3 miles from Junction 7 of the M40 providing access to London and the Midlands.
In the owner’s words:
“Birch Tree House has been a fantastic home for our growing family. We have the best of both worlds - with the ability to live a town and country lifestyle. We were drawn to the peace and tranquillity of the countryside and all that a small village can offer, yet within 20 minutes we can be on a train to London, enjoying the culture and bustle of Oxford or the shopping at Bicester Village.
There are many lovely walks from the house, whether exploring the neighbouring airfield or Bernwood Forest, or a short stroll across the fields to the shops in Ickford or Waterperry. The village pub which is now owned by a small group of villagers offers good, traditional pub food.
We have significantly renovated our home and it provides flexible, modern family living, where the living accommodation flows easily giving us all space to do our own thing. We both work partly from home - the best place to work is from the dining table looking out at the garden for inspiration! We particularly love the ability to open up the bi-fold doors in the summer and enjoy indoor/outdoor living.
We will really miss this aspect of our home.
We have found the gardens to be the perfect size - we have two children and, with busy lives, the garden is easy to maintain, not overlooked, enjoys the morning and late afternoon sunshine and provides a safe and secure place to play, entertain or relax. The birch tree, from which our home takes its name, along with the other mature shrubs and trees, is a haven for wildlife and we enjoy looking out for the woodpecker, jay and a myriad of other garden birds. The courtyard garden is a real sun trap.
This has been a great family home, we have been very fortunate to have great neighbours and friends and we shall miss Birch Tree House!”
