The Property
With a wealth of retained character, this Victorian residence presents spacious, elegant family living and a warm sense of nostalgia.

Ideal for social gatherings, there is a remarkable, double aspect drawing room with an open fireplace, along with a generous sitting room offering a feature fireplace.

Upstairs, four double bedrooms feature a principal bedroom extending circa 18 ft., with storage and access to a refitted en suite bath.
Bedrooms three and four both include storage, with bedroom two of a generous size, including versatility for furnishings. The bedrooms are further served by a bathroom with a shower separate from the bath, as well as a w.c.
The Grounds
Nestled amidst mature grounds, there is impressive outdoor space for a growing family. Whether you’re spending your leisure time with friends and family or an outdoors person, the gardens provide an array of choices.
With walled, formal garden areas and a heated swimming pool, there is remarkable entertaining. Orchards and a sizeable glass house will appeal to keen gardeners and there is a useful pump house.
Paddock land offers opportunity for equestrians and furthermore, the grounds are complete with an outbuilding including a tack room.
On approach, a five-bar gate opens ample parking space, leading to two garages, with one including an inspection pit and workshop.
Location
Featuring a rural location in the historic village of Spencers Wood, the home benefits from local amenities with a characterful village hall, library, post office, church and public house.
Clustered with local villages, the area is well-served, with a local primary school and the co-educational, independent Sherfield School in just a short drive. Wellington Country Park is a nearby attraction, hosting events and recreational activities. The towns of Reading and Basingstoke offer modern shopping centres, plus direct rail links to London Paddington and Waterloo.
