Snelsmore Common, Newbury, RG14

Extending to approximately 13,700 sq ft, Genesis has been meticulously designed to combine exceptional scale with effortless day-to-day living. Arranged over three beautifully conceived levels, the accommodation offers remarkable flexibility, lending itself equally to family life, entertaining on a grand scale or multi-generational living.

An impressive reception hall creates an unforgettable first impression, where a striking timber and glass staircase rises through the heart of the home, establishing an immediate sense of volume and light.

The principal reception rooms have been thoughtfully positioned to make the most of the property's elevated setting. A magnificent drawing and dining room opens through three sets of French doors onto a sweeping balcony, framing far-reaching views across the gardens and surrounding countryside. The expansive kitchen and breakfast room forms the social heart of the house, complemented by a utility room and a generous home office which enjoys its own spiral staircase leading directly to the principal bedroom suite. The top floor also incorporates a self-contained one bedroom annexe.

The first lower ground floor provides four spacious en-suite guest or family bedrooms, together with the spectacular double-height Moroccan-inspired Palm Room which creates a truly unique architectural focal point.

Dedicated entirely to recreation and wellbeing, the second lower ground floor is exceptional. Here you'll find an impressive 12.6 metre indoor swimming pool with changing facilities and showers, a fully equipped gymnasium and massage room, sauna, cinema room, wine cellar, games and casino lounge with wet bar, together with extensive plant and service areas.

In addition to the self-contained one-bedroom annexe on the top floor, this floor also incorporates a separate two bedroom apartment, providing exceptional flexibility for extended family, guests, staff accommodation or independent living.

Genesis occupies approximately 6.3 acres in an elevated position, enjoying outstanding privacy and panoramic views across the surrounding countryside.

The beautifully landscaped gardens have been carefully designed to provide year-round colour and interest, with mature planting, ornamental borders and winding pathways leading through secluded lawns and tranquil woodland. Beyond the formal gardens lies a wonderful collection of mature trees, including beech, silver birch, walnut and cedar, creating an idyllic natural setting.

A picturesque lake forms an attractive focal point within the grounds while discreetly concealing the property's ground source heat pump. The house is approached via private electric gates and a sweeping gravel driveway, culminating in an elegant courtyard with extensive parking for residents and guests alike.
