Description
A unique opportunity to own a stunning 3,625 sq. ft. eco-home, set within a 5-acre nature reserve with views over the Kennet Valley. 46 minutes by train from Paddington. Planning permission has been secured; alternatively, the existing 2,045 sq.ft. turn-of-century brick-built house could be renovated.
Description:
Woodland Leaves is currently an unlisted turn-of century brick-built house which has not been renovated since the 1960s. Planning permission has been secured to replace it with a fabulous new home, located in the ideal spot on the plot, further from the road and with the benefit of southerly views over the surrounding countryside. The property currently has a large garden which extends into a paddock, with the total land amounting to just under 5 acres. Under the planning permission the garden and paddock would be relandscaped to create orchards, a flower meadow, additional woodland and several ponds. For many years Woodland Leaves was the home of a respected furniture and cello maker, and within the grounds is the original coach house which he used as a workshop, which would be restored to make an attractive additional building. The proposed new house would have accommodation over 2 floors, with well-proportioned living spaces on the ground floor facing south towards the garden, flower meadow and views, and bedrooms on the first floor. The existing garage and a range of outside sheds would be replaced with new carport and covered walkway to the house. Other than to the south and along the road frontage, the property is surrounded by mature trees, and it is separated from its neighbours to the east by a small stream. Full information relating to the planning permission for the new home can be found on the West Berkshire planning portal and by searching for the application via 24/01222/FULMAJ. If preferred, the existing house could be renovated to modern standards. The existing house is habitable so could be lived occupied while the new dwelling is constructed.
