The best of old and new

Pinehurst Court is a stunning, gated development of 14, two bedroom apartments within the quintessentially English town of Beaconsfield – but with the modern amenities of the ‘New Town’ on the doorstep. Nestled within the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this sought-after town offers the best of both worlds: picturesque rural countryside, enviably placed just 25 miles from the capital.

Pinehurst Court is perfect for those who want to ‘lock up and leave’, or for people who want all of the benefits of a brand new apartment without the worry of modernising or maintaining an older property. The apartments are perfectly positioned halfway between the picturesque ‘Old Town’ and the modern ‘New Town’ of Beaconsfield, both of which boast their own unique character and charm. The ‘Old Town’ is steeped in history and features boutique shops, traditional tea rooms, pubs, wine bars and restaurants that serve everything from Italian to Chinese cuisine. In addition, there’s also a weekly market and monthly farmers’ market where you can buy a wide range of freshly grown produce. The ‘New Town’ is home to the majority of Beaconsfield’s shops which include Sainsburys, Waitrose, Marks & Spencer Simply Food, designer clothes boutiques, Space NK and plenty of cafés where you can enjoy alfresco dining.

For a wider choice of shops, Windsor, High Wycombe and Watford are all less than an hour’s drive away. Also nearby are many quaint villages such as Coleshill, old Amersham and Great Missenden, each of which offers a great selection of pubs, local shops and picturesque leafy countryside. Beaconsfield is fortunate to have a rich social and cultural calendar with both arts and horticultural activities on offer.

There’s a local tennis club, School of Lawn Tennis, and a thriving cricket club, as well as rugby and football clubs with their own grounds. There’s also The Beacon Centre for health and fitness, and an Odeon cinema in nearby Gerrards Cross. Beaconsfield’s proximity to London also means that you have an unlimited choice of shopping, leisure and entertainment just a train ride away. An excellent rail service will deliver you to London Marylebone in approximately 30 minutes and if you prefer to drive, the M40 and M25 are both easily accessible. International travel is similarly well served with London Heathrow Airport just 17 miles away. With so much on its doorstep, you’ll find Pinehurst Court the ideal choice for those who want the advantages and lifestyle of the country, yet also to be within easy reach of the city.
