Property Description

A beautifully presented and deceptively spacious unlisted period cottage in an idyllic and private woodland setting of approximately 2.5 acres on Greenham Common. Leading private schools, Cheam, Elstree and Downe House all within a 5-15 minute drive.

Brushwood is situated on the south edge of Greenham Common which extends to over 1000 acres of common land. From the house there are numerous footpaths and bridleways over which the vendor has direct and unrestricted access to; idyllic for walks, biking or horse riding. Headley is the nearest village which is only a short drive away with a well-stocked community shop, playground and hall. Newbury retail park is less than 4 miles away with a range of supermarkets and shops. The area benefits from fast transport links including Thatcham and Newbury station offering regular trains to central London in around 40 minutes and the nearby M4 and A34 also offers easy access to Reading, London and the West Country.

Description
Brushwood is a beautifully presented 5 bedroom property which has been the subject of extensive sympathetic restoration and extension since the mid 1970's. In the last 5 years the property has been greatly enhanced and extended by the current owners to create a wonderful family house. While still retaining an abundance of character it offers generous living accommodation in a beautiful peaceful setting – a real hidden gem. A light and airy entrance hall, with woodburning stove, offers additional space to extensive accommodation. There is lovely sitting room with open fire and exposed beams which has a door to the study and opens out into an expansive dining room. The kitchen/breakfast room has a real 'wow' factor with a beautiful, fitted kitchen, large island unit and snug area and is perfect for accessing the garden through the fully glazed sliding doors. Off the kitchen is a utility room and WC cloakroom. The first floor has been completely remodelled and provides a newly formed principal bedroom with an impressive fitted en-suite bathroom with separate, walk-in shower and dressing room. A second double bedroom has an en-suite bathroom room/dressing room and there are 3 further bedrooms complemented by the family bathroom.

Outside
The property is approached over Greenham Common and entered via wooden electric double gates. There is a sizeable lawned garden that extends the recreation space and benefits from a drive, garage, shed and timber store. To the rear there is a southerly facing garden with expansive patio area overlooking the adjoining fields with a large, quality bespoke timber built summerhouse. A real feature of the property is the land which measures over 2 acres and is made up of part paddock land with a stable and beautiful woodland grazing.
