Retained features include casement windows, a wealth of exposed beams and open fireplaces and a log burning stove.

The ground floor accommodation is completed by a large 23 ft. dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room with natural terracotta tiled flooring, a range of base units, double Belfast sink and modern integrated appliances. The first floor offers a spacious principal bedroom with built-in storage and modern en suite shower room, three further well-proportioned double bedrooms, one with feature fireplace, a rear aspect office and a modern family bathroom.

Falkland Cottage is situated in the popular area of Woolton Hill, just south of Newbury. Positioned on the West Berkshire/North Hampshire border, in the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the area is renowned for its rolling countryside with extensive walking and riding opportunities. Woolton Hill is an extremely sought after village and there is a thriving community, which benefits from very good local facilities including a shop/post office, church, doctors’ surgery, a pub, a tennis club, a monthly village market and excellent local schools. Further afield there are independent schools such as Downe House, Cheam and Horris Hill to name a few. Newbury itself is just 6 miles away and provides an excellent wider range of amenities including Waitrose, Marks & Spencer, numerous gyms, golf clubs and Newbury racecourse. Communications via both rail and road into London are excellent and the property is within easy access of the A34 and M4.

The property is approached over a gravelled driveway providing private parking and giving access to the detached double garage with fitted utility/cloakroom and internal stairs rising to a 21 ft. first floor studio, suitable for a variety of uses. The well-established southfacing garden is laid mainly to lawn and features several seating areas, and a generous paved terrace, ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining, the whole screened by mature hedging and trees and enjoying far-reaching views over surrounding countryside. There are also two pony paddocks.
