A Grade II listed farmhouse is on the market for £2 million.

Downley Farmhouse in Plomer Green Lane, Downley Common, was originally part of the West Wycombe Estate and is said to have 'many original features and beams'.

The five-bedroom home is set within approximately one acre of gardens which include a terrace area, a formal arrangement of floral and shrub beds, mature hedging, and fruit trees.

In addition to the main house, there is ancillary accommodation above the garage with an open-plan living and kitchen area and a shower room.

The house also has four stables, a tack room, and a storeroom which could be used as an office or gym.

Current owners of the property rent approximately 15 acres of paddock from the surrounding West Wycombe Estate and believe the new owners would be able to do the same.

The main house includes four reception rooms, three bathrooms, and five bedrooms.

Four of the bedrooms have original fireplaces and two have en-suite bathrooms.

The majority of the reception rooms are dual aspect with views over the gardens, the common, or the surrounding countryside.

Rightmove said: "Downley Farmhouse is uniquely situated on a no-through lane bordering open and wooded conservation areas between the Hughenden and West Wycombe estates.

"This enviable location offers uninterrupted walks over the Chiltern Hills yet is only two miles from the centre of High Wycombe with excellent transport connections and shopping."

The property is approximately 2.7 miles from High Wycombe, six and a half miles from Marlow, and 7.5 miles from Princes Risborough.

It is also around 22 miles from Heathrow Airport and 36.5 miles from Central London.

High Wycombe railway station has a journey into London Marylebone taking around 29 minutes.

Downley Common has a village cricket team, pub (Le de Spencer Arms), local shops and an 'outstanding' Ofsted rated primary school.

The area benefits from a choice of highly regarded schools both state and independent.
