Burnham Beeches, Burnham, Buckinghamshire, Sl2

This impressive contemporary 21st century country house abuts Burnham Beeches, an expansive 374.6-hectare (926-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest situated west of Farnham Common in the village of Burnham, Buckinghamshire.
The southern half is owned and run by the Corporation of London and is open to the public, being home to incredible wildlife and significant beech trees including a tree of reportedly 700 years old.
Discreet timber gates give access to the driveway which meanders through the mature wooded grounds past the staff lodges and towards the impressive arrival courtyard.
The statement high front door leads to the striking triple height Great Hall is a statement in itself, providing an atmosphere of light and space, a feature of the whole house.
The reception rooms have been designed to seamlessly blend modern family areas with work orientated spaces. Twin height double doors lead to the galleried library whilst the dining room gives the illusion of floating on an ink black reflection pool, with a flood lit vertical garden.
On the second floor the six principal bedrooms have been designed around seven star living with power showers, colour therapy, cosy fireplaces and a full 360 degree sun terrace. From the master bedroom it is a comfortable walk down one flight of stairs to the gym, and a further single flight to the swimming pool and spa.
Adjacent is the presidential suite for private or special guests.
Garden and Grounds
The garden and grounds are a remarkable aspect of this property.
Overlooked by the pool room is the sanctuary Gold Medal winning Chelsea Garden, a tranquil space with a contemporary water feature flanked by pleached hornbeams.
To the South a paved terrace overlooks the formal lawns which cascade down to the ha-ha and the paddock beyond. Mature deciduous trees, in particular Beech and Oak, with an additional 500 specimen of trees planted to add to the privacy.
A fragrant wisteria walk leads from the presidential suite giving access to the barbecue area in a discreet yew shelter. Within the woodland walks 30,000 snowdrop bulbs have been planted to create a white river, the first flowers of spring.
Most importantly, the garden and grounds are extremely private and peaceful.
