Deanwood House, Stockcross, Newbury, Berkshire, RG20

Spacious family home

Description

This elegant period property, built in the early 1900s, forms a major extension to an impressive Victorian country house.
The property enjoys spacious rooms, with high ceilings and well-proportioned double-glazed windows, with a southerly aspect. The magnificent drawing room boasts panelled walls, an ornate ceiling and an attractive fireplace.
The kitchen/dining room is similarly gracious and leads to a conservatory with access to the garden. There is a downstairs WC and small storage area under the stairs. Below the conservatory is useful storage space.
The first floor offers a generous principal bedroom with en suite bathroom, three further double bedrooms and family bathroom and shower.
The top floor comprises a light and airy studio with far reaching views over the garden and woodland beyond. There is also an adjacent attic store which has the potential to convert into a bedroom and en suite bathroom.

Outside

The grounds extend to over one acre and include a lawn to the front bordered by mature shrubs, an adjacent levelled lawn area and an area of private woodland, beyond which lies the Dean Wood. A gravel drive (sole access) leads off the communal driveway to a garage and carport, with parking for several cars.
Additional parking is available in the Deanwood House communal car park. The property also enjoys a dedicated share of the communal kitchen garden.
