4 Bed Detached House For Sale

A very rare opportunity to acquire a 15th Century Grade II listed country home in the pretty village of Winkfield set within a walled garden with a heated swimming pool and an annexe. There is planning permission granted for erection of a one and half-storey rear extension to replace the existing, lowered terrace as well as internal alteration to existing stable annexe to continue as ancillary habitable living accommodation and widening of front vehicle entrance gate by repositioning of granite bollards.
The accommodation, which has central heating throughout, consists of a reception hall, drawing room, dining room, study, kitchen, cloakroom, main bedroom with en suite bathroom, two further bedrooms with vaulted beamed ceilings and a family bathroom.
Of particular note are the large inglenook fireplace, stone floors to the ground floor, and a wealth of exposed wall and ceiling beams, all fastidiously maintained throughout.
In addition to the main house, there is a separate annexe converted from some of the stables, which provides delightful and spacious accommodation overlooking the gardens.

The manicured gardens compliment this extraordinary period family home and frame the property with box hedging, stone pathways, a pond surrounded by rose bushes and mature flowering shrubs, and a fruit orchard, all interlaced with lawned areas. There are seven stables and an approximately 2.5 acre paddock to the rear of the property, benefiting from its own private access to the road.
