Description
Built in 2003, the house and grounds have been beautifully maintained. This is a horseshoe bungalow surrounding a central gravel courtyard which lies at the end of a long private drive. A walkway runs around the back of the property to the garden and includes a broad selection of mature shrubs and fruit trees planted over the years by the current owners.
The kitchen-diner has granite worktops, wooden units and a central island. Beyond this is a utility room which houses a WC, boiler and additional storage, with a rear providing outside access. The first reception room is dual aspect and looks out over the land. French doors open onto the garden and a log burner completes the homely feel. Along the hallway, the second reception room also offers French doors to the garden along with spectacular views.
Five double bedrooms provide plenty of accommodation options. The main bedroom has an ensuite and dressing room, and the second bedroom is also ensuite. The three remaining bedrooms are serviced by a family bathroom with a walk in shower. Additional space is provided by the large loft room which could be utilised for various purposes.
The yard offers four stables, a well appointed tack room, a separate feed room and a garage/ barn. Around four acres of paddocks are available for grazing, depending on how the fencing is arranged. The arena is fully floodlit and sits just below the house, so is a picturesque outlook for the equestrian enthusiast. An additional 5 acres is potentially available to rent immediately adjacent to the plot.
Brimpton is a small and pretty rural village in West Berkshire. The village is known for its charming rural character, with most houses offering stunning views over open countryside. Residents enjoy a tranquil lifestyle with access to several footpaths that wind through the parish’s scenic landscape, including walks along the River Enborne and through woodland.
