This remarkable 4 / 5 bedroom house is set amongst superb gardens in the Chilterns, near Chesham in Buckinghamshire. Designed in 1975 by the government architect John Lynch for a high-ranking official, it is an excellent example of 1970s architecture having a dynamic design with staggered mono-pitched roofs, being built to a high specification and featuring some fantastic internal spaces. The site, approximately one acre in total, is a former walled orchard of a nearby 19th century country house. There are superb views of the neighbouring Queen Anne house and down the Chess valley beyond. Latimer is a quintessential English village, with a village green and numerous historic buildings, that also benefits from a nearby train station and Underground station, Chalfont & Latimer, that runs services to central London in half an hour.
