Description
Description
The Grade II listed Old Craven Arms dates back to circa 1850 and originally operated as a public house for the South Berkshire Brewery. This heritage is marked by the sign on the wall and the cellar door below.
The house offers an exciting opportunity to upgrade and create a modern interior, whilst all rooms benefit from an abundance of natural light and outstanding views of the garden and/or land beyond. Excellent reception space is provided, with a drawing room, sitting room, dining room, games room and a kitchen/breakfast room off which is a small conservatory. There is a good sized cellar which can also be accessed from the garden.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom has an en suite shower room and an adjoining study/dressing room. There are four further bedrooms on this floor and a family bathroom. The top floor offers a sixth bedroom and study, with store areas.
The house benefits from direct road access off Craven Road, which leads into a private courtyard. The courtyard has room for several cars and an additional two cars in the garage which is attached to the house.
The garden to the rear of the house is screened from the road by the house. Planning permission was historically granted for an indoor swimming pool and gym complex to be constructed, however works were never carried out. In addition to the well laid out and mature garden to the rear of the house, there is an additional paddock of about one acre which benefits from its own access.
Location
Old Craven is located in Lower Green, Inkpen, a charming rural village located within the North Wessex Downs National Landscape (formerly AONB), equidistant between Kintbury and Hungerford. The house lies in the rolling countryside of West Berkshire, three miles southeast of Hungerford, a rural town best known for its bustling market stores and high street.
Land in the area is typically used for arable and livestock grazing, with multiple wooded areas interspersed for country sports.
The location caters for those looking for a country lifestyle, whilst also being a stone’s throw away from town comforts. The area is popular with commuters heading up to London for work during the week. The house is located on Craven Road, linking to Kintbury, Hungerford and the wider area.
