Furzemoor Cottage
In a tucked away location down a quiet country lane, Furzemoor Cottage sits in a wonderful location with outstanding views across fields and down to the famous Goring Gap, a natural break in the Berkshire Downs and the Chiltern Hills. The westerly aspect means some superb sunsets are enjoyed from the house and terrace.
The property has been recently re-thatched and has a modern extension creating a fine garden room with bi-fold doors to the terrace and with an en-suite shower room to create a useful guest bedroom suite. There are three additional reception rooms with a charming beam filled study, a spacious sitting room with inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove and a formal dining room. The generous kitchen/breakfast room is well fitted with views across the garden and there is a separate porch and utility room.
Upstairs, there is a spacious main bedroom with painted beams and lovely views, a walk-in wardrobe and steps down to a newly fitted en-suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms on this floor and a modern family bathroom.
Outside
From the lane, the shingle driveway leads into the parking area and up to the double garage. A path leads through bluebells and under a rose and honeysuckle covered archway into the main garden which is laid to lawn with flower borders filled with herbaceous perennials. Bushes and shrubs provide privacy and seclusion and there are mature specimen trees including silver birch and a fine magnolia.
Location
Furzemoor Cottage is quietly situated in the rural hamlet of Goring Heath, amongst a handful of other period properties. There are wonderful country walks direct from the cottage with a myriad of footpaths criss-crossing the fields. There are local shops at Goring-on-Thames and Pangbourne and railway stations at each with fast connection to Paddington (47 mins), the City, West End and Heathrow via the Elizabeth line. Schools include The Oratory (the entrance is opposite Coldharbour Lane), Langtree, Bradfield and Pangbourne Colleges, Moulsford and Cranford House Preps. There is golf at a number of friendly local clubs and boating on the River Thames.
The M4 (J12) is about 9 miles away with Heathrow under 40 miles. Goring and Pangbourne (both 3 miles) and Woodcote (2 miles) have local shops and restaurants. The larger centres of Reading, Henley-on-Thames and Wallingford are close by. There are miles of walking and riding straight from the cottage and there is boating on the nearby River Thames.
