Description
Grapevine Estate Agents are honoured to bring to the market this truly remarkable Grade II listed detached residence, believed to date back to 1546, offering an extraordinary opportunity to acquire one of the area's most distinctive homes. Hidden away at the end of a long private driveway with electric gated entrance, this exceptional property enjoys an incredibly private setting whilst remaining within easy reach of Reading, the M4 motorway, major business parks and excellent transport links.
Occupying nearly two acres of beautifully landscaped and mature grounds, the property seamlessly combines centuries of history with practical family living. Rich in period charm throughout, the home showcases an abundance of exposed beams, exposed brickwork, original fireplaces and an array of architectural features that create an atmosphere rarely found in today's market.
The property has a magnificent triple aspect sitting room, where natural light floods the space and period features provide a warm and inviting ambience. A further cosy snug offers the perfect retreat for quieter evenings, while a separate study provides an ideal environment for those working from home.
At the heart of the home is the impressive kitchen and dining room, perfectly designed for both everyday family life and entertaining. The generous utility room provides excellent additional storage and practicality.
The first floor offers three generous double bedrooms, including a superb principal suite complete with its own en-suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom, all continuing the property's wonderful blend of historic character and comfortable modern living.
Externally, the grounds are simply breathtaking. The property sits within nearly two acres of beautifully enclosed mature gardens, offering complete privacy with sweeping lawns, established trees, numerous areas to relax and entertain. A charming summerhouse provides the perfect place to unwind whilst enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
A particularly impressive feature is the substantial detached timber-framed triple garage with accommodation above, complete with its own shower room. This highly versatile space offers endless possibilities, whether as a home business, games room, gym, studio, guest accommodation (subject to any necessary consents), or simply exceptional storage.
Further complemented by a detached workshop and extensive parking for approximately 10-12 vehicles, this outstanding home effortlessly caters for modern lifestyles whilst retaining all of its historic integrity.
Despite its wonderfully secluded feel, the property enjoys a surprisingly convenient location within the RG6 postcode, offering excellent access to Reading town centre, the M4 motorway, local business parks, nearby parks, highly regarded schools and regular bus services, making this an exceptional opportunity to enjoy country house living within an urban setting.
Properties of this calibre, history and individuality are exceptionally rare. This is a home that must be experienced in person to fully appreciate everything it has to offer.
