5 bedroom house

Grange Farm House is a Grade II listed farmhouse believed to date from the 17th century. The property is understood to have been substantially remodelled during the 19th century and all of the reception rooms benefit from attractive working fireplaces and views over the surrounding gardens and farmland beyond. It has classic room proportions throughout and good ceiling heights, typical of a house of its period, and has been refurbished by the current owners.

Upstairs there are currently 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. With three staircases in total the current layout offers flexibility for creation of a self-contained guest area or annexe if required.

There is an indoor swimming pool which opens onto a south facing terrace area and the property sits in just over 2 acres of grounds.

Only two miles north of Newbury itself, Grange Farm House is set amidst rolling Berkshire countryside. The property is approached over a long private drive with farmland either side. Part of the driveway is shared with a small number of high quality barn conversions to the rear of the farmhouse. The situation provides a combination of privacy overlooking farmland with close proximity to Newbury town centre and easy access to the M4 an A34. The market town of Newbury offers commercial, leisure and cultural facilities along with a fast train service into London Paddington taking less than an hour. There is an excellent range of schooling in the area, both state and private, and the surrounding countryside is renowned for wonderful walking and riding.

A driveway to the side of the property leads past a parking area in front of the house. To the rear of the property there is parking for a number of vehicles and two individual garages with a store room (with dividing partition wall) power and a loft space over. A second door leads to further storage at the end of the pool room, housing the oil tanks. There is a boiler room with a pool filtration system and two boilers. Opposite is a further store/freezer room. The well maintained gardens are partly walled and lie mainly to the south, east and west, wrapping around the house and providing an attractive setting. A terrace adjoins the pool room and the gardens are laid mainly to lawn with various established flower and shrub borders.
