A huge countryside mansion that ‘could be worth millions’ following renovations is on the market for £900k.
The Buckinghamshire countryside is filled with decadent country houses, attracting buyers for their rural appeal and commuter links.
Not every such property could have you rubbing elbows with superstars like this one on Denham Road in Iver, however.
The fixer-upper mansion, called Southlands, is less than a mile away from the world-famous Pinewood Studios and has just hit the market for under £1 million.
A five-bedroom mansion with a a pool, sauna and a huge garden, it will go up for auction through Landwood Property Auctions with a guide price of £900,000 on June, 28.
The detached property is set back from the main road by a private driveway and boasts five receptions, three shower rooms, two kitchens, two ensuite bathrooms, a utility room and 1.65 acres of land.
It is also only a stone’s throw from Pinewood Studios, home to the James Bond stage, Europe’s largest soundstage, and the only underwater stage in the world.
With strong commuter links to London Heathrow and the Uxbridge Underground Station, it’s a property that auctioneers think could be worth millions due to its location, size and developmental potential.
James Ashworth, director for Landwood Property Auctions, said: “It’s definitely not everyday you see a property that literally allows you to rub shoulders with the stars hit the market.
“Even without including the attraction of Pinewood Studios, the house has a whole host of desirable features. An in-built pool, the sauna room and more than an acre of space come together to create a unique offering that is sure to attract a lot of attention at auction.
“While it’s true that the site does require some love to get it back to its best, it’s a listing that we’re expecting to perform well as buyers look to secure themselves a property with real star-power.”
