Welcome to Elm Villas, an exceptional development nestled in the highly sought-after and strategically located village of Binfield Heath. From the moment you step onto the drive, the unmistakable quality of these properties becomes evident. Crafted with meticulous care by James Ransom of Tamesis Properties, these homes stand as a testament to his dedication, creating a legacy that enhances the landscape of the area. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, with accents of the local Chilterns architecture evidenced throughout.

Arriving on the neatly finished Oxford shingle drive, there is an immediate sense of exclusivity and elegance, set back from the road behind yew hedges. A pair of handsome olive trees welcome you, while lavender-filled borders and artfully crafted garden beds on either side give a sense of refined charm.
A recessed porch, adorned with decorative oak brackets and a Victorian chequerboard-tiled floor, pays homage to inspired finishes that echo throughout the development.

Opening the bespoke oversized front door reveals a truly marvellous entrance hall, a space that brings warmth and hospitality. The herringbone parquet floor is beautifully finished, with Oak fire doors (fitted throughout) further demonstrating the quality of finish. A hand finished coats cupboard adds useful storage, complemented by elegant Georgian-inspired corniced ceiling and wood panelling.
Leading off the hall is a magnificent sitting room with grand proportions and boasting a large bay window (all windows are aluminium framed Hazlemere Windows and Doors) a hand finished fireplace featuring bricks sourced from the original property on the site, and a continuation of the Georgian inspired cornicing. Also leading off the entrance hall is a ground floor cloakroom, where the wood panelling continues, along with parquet flooring and smartly fitted WC and basin/vanity unit.

At the rear lies a truly wonderful open plan kitchen/living area that offers up serious wow factor. With a fabulous hand finished kitchen designed by the renowned Harvey Jones, an example of great craftmanship and luxury, this space includes granite worktops, a Bora pure induction cooktop with integrated cooktop extractor, double oven including multi oven by Fisher & Paykel, integrated Seimens dishwasher, Quooker Cube 5 providing boiling, hot, cold and carbonated water, Fisher & Paykel American style fridge/Freezer with ice maker, and a Caple wine cabinet. Oversized porcelain tiled floors add to the feeling of space and sophistication. Bi-fold doors and a beautifully finished lantern roof with wood panelled detailing ensure the room is flooded with natural light and ideal for entertaining both for intimate family times or on a grander scale. An elegant arched opening leads to a separate utility demonstrating the same uncompromising level of finish, with Miele washer and drier, granite worktops and Harvey Jones hand finishes units including a useful boots and coats cupboard. There is also a separate access to the terrace and garden � adding functionality and great for muddy boots and paws.

A hand built oak staircase leads to a large landing on the first floor, where there is a utility cupboard housing the hot water cylinder and immersion tank. At the rear lies the principal suite, an impressive space with dressing room adorned with fitted wardrobes by Hammonds Furniture. There are far reaching views over open countryside to the rear, and the ensuite is a wonderful mix of timeless elegance and contemporary indulgence, with wood panelling, oversized porcelain marble effect tiles, twin vanity units, heated towel rail, sanitary ware by Grohe (throughout the property) including a superb rainforest shower with handheld attachment and large inset mirror.
