Wavendon House Drive

Set within attractive, well-maintained communal grounds, this Grade II listed home offers light-filled accommodation with open views across landscaped lawns and surrounding countryside. The estate has a rich heritage, originally part of Woburn Abbey and later remodelled by the Selby family and Henry Hoare of the renowned banking family. It also served as a Bomb outstation for Bletchley Park during World War II before its later conversion into private residences.

The grounds were landscaped in the 18th century by Richard Woods, a contemporary of Capability Brown, featuring two pear-shaped lakes linked by a canal and ornamental Greensand stone bridges. A rare quadrant-plan walled garden, complete with an exceptional pear arbour and a 41-foot-deep well, adds further distinction.

Inside, the home includes a welcoming entrance hall, a spacious light-filled lounge, an impressive reception hall with a classic archway, and a well-appointed kitchen. Three generous bedrooms include a primary suite with a roll-top bath, complemented by a modern main bathroom. Expansive communal gardens bordered by mature trees create a peaceful and private setting with far-reaching countryside views.
