Frilsham, Yattendon, Thatcham, Berkshire, RG18

PARKERS – A rare and exceptional opportunity to acquire a beautifully positioned four-bedroom detached family home, nestled within approximately 1.25 acres at the end of a quiet, leafy lane on the edge of the highly desirable villages of Yattendon and Frilsham.

A rare and exciting opportunity to purchase a detached four-bedroom family home, set within approx. 1.25 acres at the end of a quiet, leafy lane in one of West Berkshire’s most sought-after locations.

Situated on the border of the charming villages of Yattendon and Frilsham, Highfield House offers peaceful countryside living with fantastic potential for modernisation or extension (STPP).

Built in 1976 and owned by the same family since 1988, the property has been well looked after over the years but now offers an excellent opportunity for refurbishment and modernization.

Offering over 2,000 sq. ft. of well-laid-out accommodation, this is an ideal opportunity for buyers looking to create their dream home in a truly idyllic setting. The accommodation includes a generous entrance hall, a large dual-aspect living room with hearth, and a dining room connected via French doors—ideal for entertaining. There’s also a study (or additional family room), a kitchen overlooking the rear garden, a utility room, and a downstairs WC. With vision, the kitchen, utility, and study could be reimagined into a large, open-plan kitchen/diner to suit modern living.

Upstairs, the property boasts four generously sized double bedrooms, each offering ample space for wardrobes and additional furniture. The principal suite is particularly spacious and benefits from its own private balcony, perfect for enjoying peaceful leafy views, as well as a private en-suite bathroom featuring both a bath and separate shower. Another rear-facing bedroom also enjoys a private balcony, offering similar tranquil views and fresh air. The remaining bedrooms are well-proportioned and versatile—ideal for guests, children, or use as a home office or hobby room. An additional family bathroom completes the upper floor accommodation.

The property sits on a generous plot of approximately 1.25 acres, featuring expansive lawns and mature trees that provide an extremely private setting. The grounds include a swimming pool and pool house, which would benefit from refurbishment to suit the new owner’s tastes. There is also a detached double garage and a driveway offering ample parking for multiple vehicles. The garden offers significant potential for landscaping or enhancement, depending on preferences.

This property offers the perfect balance of peaceful seclusion and a friendly neighbourhood setting. It enjoys convenient access to village amenities, including several excellent restaurants, a village shop, and a charming pantry café—all just a short walk away. Scenic public footpaths surround the area, while excellent transport links, including the M4 and a mainline station at Pangbourne, are only a short drive from the property.
