Tenure: Freehold
A delightful Grade II listed cottage, believed to date back to the late 1600's. Accessed from Chapel Drive there is an un made lane leading to the driveway of Roff cottage. A pedestrian gate opens into what can only be described as a tranquil haven with stunning views across adjoining countryside, down the garden with woodland beyond.
The cottage has been sympathetically enlarged over the years yet still retains a wealth of charm and character associated with a property of this period. An entrance porch way gives access to the front door leading directly into the dining room, complimented further with an Inglenook fire and Bessemer beam over. The adjacent kitchen is fitted with a range of units under an expanse of work surfaces and space for appliances.
A door opens into a small rear lobby leading to outside and a downstairs WC. For the homeworker there is a separate study and in addition there is a further reception room adjacent to the dining room which is currently being used as the family room. Steps lead down into the magnificent sitting room opening into a conservatory with stunning views. There is also a downstairs bedroom with an ensuite shower room.
The first floor is of equal merit providing three bedrooms with immense character all of which are served by a family bathroom.
Outside
Set in stunning grounds approaching 1.5 acres with various outbuildings adjoining open countryside.
Situation
Situated in the village of Beech Hill close to Swallowfield and Spencers Wood which offer a good range of day to day amenities including a bakers, off licence, Indian Restaurant, chemist and post office. More comprehensive shopping, business and leisure facilities can be found in Reading and Basingstoke, which both have fast rail links to London Paddington and London Waterloo respectively. The cottage is well placed to join the motorway network at J11 of the M4 and J6 of the M3, with easy access to London and its airports.
The locality enjoys an excellent reputation for both independent and state schools, including Crossfields, Leighton Park School, Reading School for boys, Kendrick girls grammar, St Neots, Reading Bluecoat, Sherfield and Daneshill.
The area is highly regarded for its equestrian facilities and other sporting interests, including a variety of golf clubs locally, gliding at Lasham, flying at Popham and sailing on the south coast. There are also numerous footpaths over the surrounding countryside.
