noir by david cliff - ELEGANT PERIOD HOME WITH POOL, PADDOCKS & STABLING

An elegant and attractive detached period property dating from the 1920s, occupying a secluded plot of approximately 3.7 acres on the northern edge of Mortimer. Set well back from a quiet country lane and surrounded by open countryside, the property combines charming period character with generous family accommodation extending to approximately 4,846 sq ft, including the garage and outbuildings.

A covered entrance opens into a welcoming reception hall, which forms the centre of the home. To one side is a substantial drawing room with open fireplace and a delightful south-facing aspect across the gardens and grounds. The remaining reception space includes a formal dining room, study and a separate sitting room, providing excellent flexibility for family life, home working and entertaining.

At the heart of the house is a superb open-plan kitchen/breakfast/family room, created as part of a significant extension in 2008/09. This impressive space enjoys direct access to the terrace and gardens and is complemented by a useful utility room and cloakroom.

The first floor provides five well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom suite benefits from a generous dressing room and is served by an adjacent shower room. Four further bedrooms are arranged around the landing and are served by a family bathroom, creating practical and flexible accommodation for modern family living.

The majority of the principal rooms enjoy attractive southerly views across the gardens, paddocks and countryside beyond.

Outside, a gravel driveway provides extensive parking and access to the detached garage and stabling. The mature gardens are a particular feature, comprising established flower beds, clipped yew hedging, expansive lawns and a sheltered heated swimming pool. Beyond the formal gardens lie areas of orchard and paddock land, making the property particularly suitable for those with equestrian or lifestyle interests.

Despite its peaceful rural setting, the property is conveniently positioned for access to Mortimer village, which offers everyday amenities, a primary school, healthcare facilities, pubs and shops. Mortimer station is approximately 0.5 miles away and provides direct services to Reading and Basingstoke, connecting with fast services to London Paddington and Waterloo. The area is also well served by a range of highly regarded state and independent schools, together with golf, equestrian and leisure facilities nearby.
