SITUATIONThe hamlet of Bucklebury Common sits on the edge of the Berkshire Downlands in an area of ‘Outstanding Natural Beauty’ with far reaching scenic countryside, being a short hop to Bradfield.

Just a short drive to the M4 and for a mainline railway station in either Pangbourne on Thames or Theale, London Paddington can be reached in well under the hour. Crossrail is due to open from Reading in late 2019 / early 2020 also, opening through more direct links to Canary Wharf.

In Bradfield there is a shop and post office, primary school, Montessori nursery, the Queens Head public house, village hall, recreation ground, and cricket club. Further along The Avenue in Chapel Row, there is a health centre, award winning pub, The Bladebone, and The Blackbird Café.

Bradfield College, the well known Public School, just up the road, has excellent leisure, fitness and sports facilities including a large indoor swimming pool all of which are available for use by members of the public. The facilities also include squash, badminton and tennis courts, hockey and a 9-hole golf course.

Whilst the nearby village of Bradfield benefits from having its own well revered primary school, in addition to Bradfield College, locally the area is extremely well served by an excellent range of both state and private schooling, of particular note; St Andrews Preparatory, Pangbourne College, Downe House, Cranford House, Moulsford Preparatory, Abingdon Boys and The School of St Helen & Katharine.

PROPERTY DESCRIPTIONThe property occupies a commanding position in mature gardens and grounds of approximately 1.1 acres and is privately approached off The Avenue over a pretty woodland driveway in this picturesque Berkshire Downland Hamlet.

The existing house is quite spacious, affording well-appointed accommodation that extends to approximately 1,874 sq ft, encompassing modern and contemporary refurbished rooms, with there

being 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 2 reception rooms. The large dual aspect kitchen / dining & family room has wide sliding doors opening out to the stone laid terrace, with sublime views over the gardens and farmland beyond, perfect for ‘Al Fresco’ dining.

Adjacent to the house there is a separate double garage with workshop / studio attached, affording super amenity which in all extends to approximately 913 sq ft, with further conversion potential to form an annexe afforded, if so desired.

GARDENS & GROUNDSA private gated drive leads up to the property and a large spacious forecourt with garaging adjacent, initially approached off The Avenue via a quiet wooded driveway.

The gardens and grounds take particular advantage of the private aspect and glorious far reaching views afforded over the adjoining rolling countryside. Indeed, a striking feature of Bucklebury Chase is that it benefits from a very high degree of tranquillity with the gardens as a whole being enclosed by a combination mature trees and hedging. Most stunning, the gardens and grounds wrap their way around the property, mainly laid to lawn, with extensive planting of mature hedging interspersed with an array of mature trees.

Both private and delightfully attractive, the gardens and grounds extend to approximately 1.1 acres, and are the subject of much care and attention, which will be evident upon viewing.

Additional adjoining land, predominantly woodland, is thought to be available for purchase from the Lord of the Manor, Mr Hartley Russell of Bucklebury Estate.

FURTHER DEVELOPMENT POTENTIALFull planning consent was granted in late 2017 for a stunning new state of the art eco-friendly country house, which would extend to approximately 7,300 sq ft, encompassing simply wonderful glazed and vaulted elevations and an inspired configuration internally, that truly encapsulates the awe-inspiring views and all that is great about Bucklebury Chase.

Planning Application No: 17/02266/FUL. Further detailed planning information can be found on the West Berkshire District Council planning portal, searching using the above planning number.

Naturally, with the planning consent having been obtained, should one wish to design an alternative home, the precedent for a larger home has now been established, paving the way for a new creative path.
