Situation

The village of Frilsham is situated along the Pang valley and is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Most local amenities are provided at the neighbouring village of Yattendon and the market town of Newbury only 6 miles away. Pangbourne is also close by. There are some excellent pubs nearby, notably The Pot Kiln in Frilsham and the Royal Oak at Yattendon.
There are also a number of good schools in the area which cater for all ages. These include, Brockhurst & Marlston House, Elstree, Marlborough College, Downe House, Cheam, Pangbourne College, The Downs School and Bradfield.
The property is well placed for communications being about 5 miles from Jct 13 of the M4 giving access to London, Heathrow and the national motorway network.

The site
The site currently exists of a combination of mature hedgerows, trees and woodland which enclose the site along with scrub, ruderal vegetation and grassland.
The former quarrying activities has created a man-made topography with significant level changes compared with the original and adjacent slope of the land. This has provided an opportunity to create a truly contemporary property within this stunning, unique and secluded parcel of land.

The Western part of the site lies relatively flat and at the same height as the road, the eastern extent of the site comprises much higher ground.
The site comprises a distinct quarry face, which extends in a crescent shape to approximately 10m at its highest point resulting in far reaching, wonderful views to the west. The site is truly an oasis for wildlife and tranquillity .

The plot measure approximately 4.95 acres in total.

Planning (5920sqft)

Planning has been granted ( 22/03123/FULMAJ) (25/00453/FULMAJ) for a contemporary property of approximately 5,920sqft GIA which will be constructed in a disused quarry in the ANOB.
The ground floor will have 5 bedrooms, all with en-suite. A spectacular reception room/winter garden greets guests with a boot room, W/C and large gym found just off the reception room.

The first floor consists of a kitchen, dining room and drawing room, all vaulted and awash with natural light. Outside space consists of a wraparound south facing roof terrace with wonderful views of the south facing garden, natural swimming pool and beyond. An ideal setting for alfresco dining and entertaining.

The landscaped south facing private garden leads via a path to a pontoon perched over the secluded natural swimming pool in the southeast corner. To the northwest of the property is an oasis of woodland and wild flower meadows. A swale/stream separates the two large plots and meanders to the west offering a wealth of wildlife, privacy and sanctuary.

4 bay garage

The property has been designed to an exemplar standard using a combination of leading-edge technology and innovative building materials providing near off-grid living.
