The house has been significantly extended and refurbished between 1994 and 1996 incorporating a functional Buckinghamshire Barn to create a very handsome family home.
The Cottage - A very pretty brick built cottage with a clay tile roof forms lot 2. The Cottage has two reception rooms together with a conservatory and three bedrooms on the first floor.
This property has 14.6 acres of land.
The gardens and grounds provide a charming and tranquil setting for the house, laid mainly to lawn and gently sloping away from the house. Adjoining is the paddock land which in conjunction with the manage and stabling is ideal for an equestrian enthusiast. There is separate staff/guest accommodation provided by a flat situated over the office. There is also a Residential Recording Studio which is fully sound proof and suitable to provide secondary accommodation subject to planning.
The property originally formed part of the Liscombe Park Estate which includes an Elizabethan house in Capability Brown designed gardens.
Dairy Cottage is located just south of the village of Soulbury which has a well-regarded public house, The Boot, a cricket team and church. Approximately half a mile away from the property is Liscombe Equestrian Centre which is a British Horse Society approved centre hosting a variety of competitions and riding opportunities. There are a number of golf clubs in the area including Aylesbury Vale, The Three Locks and Leighton Buzzard Golf Club.
