Halmore, Berkeley

Halmore House is an impressive detached hamlet residence offering approximately 4,300 sq ft of generous and highly versatile accommodation, including a self-contained two-bedroom annex. Ideally suited to multi-generational living, the annex also offers excellent accommodation for a dependent relative or an independent teenager, with the added potential to generate additional income.

Occupying a delightful rural setting in the heart of the village, the property enjoys a particularly attractive position backing directly onto open fields, with far-reaching views across the surrounding farmland.

A spacious reception hall provides an impressive introduction to the property, leading through to a superb open-plan, split-level lounge. This outstanding reception space features an automated cinema screen and two sets of French doors opening directly onto the gardens, creating an ideal setting for both family living and entertaining.

Further reception space is provided by a separate sitting room, complete with a limestone fireplace and wood-burning stove. Double doors lead through to the dining room, which in turn connects to a well-appointed kitchen featuring a comprehensive range of appliances and a central breakfast bar with granite work-surfaces. A dedicated study, utility room with laundry facilities and ground-floor cloakroom complete the principal ground-floor accommodation.

The first floor features an attractive galleried landing leading to six bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities. A family bathroom, incorporating a walk-in shower, serves the remaining bedrooms.

A particularly valuable feature of Halmore House is its self-contained annex, offering independent and versatile accommodation. Comprising a lounge with a balcony overlooking the rear fields, a kitchen/dining room, two bedrooms and a shower room, the annex provides an excellent degree of flexibility for extended family living.

The property stands within landscaped gardens extending to approximately 0.36 of an acre, featuring generous lawns and attractive outdoor spaces. An extensive driveway, accessed via electric gates, provides ample parking and leads to a triple garage, together with a separate store.

For outdoor entertaining, a substantial timber-decked gazebo provides a sheltered, all-weather space from which to enjoy the gardens and peaceful views across the adjoining fields.
