Description

An exciting project of an un-Listed property set in a private location, with further land available.

ABOUT THIS HOUSE
Totterdown Farmhouse was formerly part of the Bussockwood Estate and is an un-Listed detached period property, believed to date from the 18th Century, that has great potential. The property has not been habited for a number of years and requires total modernisation.

There is a good sized garden to the front of the property with two brick
barns, brick built wood store and grounds of circa 1 acre.

The property is separately accessed via Totterdown Lane and sits in a
charming private wooded setting.

A further 35.25 acres of land is available by separate negotiation (as a whole or two lots).


AGENT’S NOTE
There is a building survey available to interested parties.

Access to the property is via an un-metaled and poorly maintained track.


ABOUT THIS AREA
Situated a short distance to the north of Newbury, Snelsmore offers country living at its finest. Set on the edge of the magnificent Berkshire Downs with excellent access to Snelsmore Common (a hundred hectare National Park), it’s an idyllic spot with inexhaustible options for lovers of the outdoors. Newbury, with its large open market square and famous castle ruins, is a bustling market town is suffused in history. But what you might not know is that Newbury is home to a fresh and energetic vibe, stoked by some great independent shopping, a sparkling array of dining options and a thriving café culture as well as racing at Newbury Races. If that wasn’t enough, Snelsmore is within very easy access to some outstanding schools, great leisure facilities and abundant footpaths. With both Reading and Oxford within striking distance, Snelsmore is very well-connected to some of London’s fastest rail-links and is well positioned for both the M4 and A34.

Schooling in the area is excellent, both state and independent, including Pinewood, The Manor, Elstree, Brockhurst & Marlston, St Helens & St Catherines, Cothill, Radley and Marlborough to name but a few. The market towns of Hungerford, Newbury Marlborough and Wantage are all within easy driving distance, and the large town of Swindon provides extensive facilities. M4 junction 14 is 6 miles away providing excellent links to London and Bath and to further major road networks.
