Blenheim Cottage is an attractive family home totalling nearly 3000 sq ft of light-filled, flexible accommodation arranged over two floors. Configured to provide a practical and cohesive living and entertaining environment, the property sensitively combines quality fixtures and fittings and elegant neutral décor with casement glazing and some original period fireplaces.
The accommodation flows from a welcoming reception hall with en suite cloakroom. It briefly comprises a triple aspect drawing room with a feature marble fireplace, flanked on each side by bespoke storage, and two sets of French doors to the terrace. It opens into a further area, currently configured for use as a dining room but suitable for a variety of uses.

The ground floor accommodation is completed by a kitchen/breakfast room with quarry-tiled flooring throughout. The kitchen provides a range of wall and base units, complementary work surfaces, modern appliances and a door to a side hall with access to the terrace. The breakfast area has a feature exposed brick fireplace with a cast iron range (unconnected) and space for a table for more informal meals.

Stairs rise from the reception hall to a generous first floor landing with useful storage. The part-vaulted first floor houses a principal bedroom with extensive fitted storage, double doors to a private balcony and an en suite bathroom with a corner bath with shower over.
The property offers three further bedrooms, two doubles with fitted storage and the third, a single, currently employed as a study, together with a family shower room.

The property is approached through a five-bar gate over a gravelled driveway providing private parking for numerous vehicles and access to an electric vehicle charge point.

The detached double garage has a toilet and full plumbing and electrics, so has historically had numerous different uses as a full-time office, physio consultation room and now provides a fantastic play and games room above with a great deal of secure storage downstairs. There is the possibility of being able to further convert this building to suit different requirements or perhaps even join to the house, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission and consents. There is a further brick built outbuilding to the immediate rear of the house which not only houses the modern filtration system for the private water bore hole but also allows a great deal of storage space for garden equipment. The generous well-maintained wraparound garden is laid mainly to lawn bordered by well-stocked flower beds, mature hedging and a number of mature specimen trees, some of which produce fruit. It features numerous seating areas and a large wraparound, raised terrace with a pond, ideal for entertaining and enjoying outdoor dining, set within the peaceful surrounding countryside.

Maidenhatch sits almost equidistant between Pangbourne and Upper Basildon villages, renowned for its walks and rides. Pangbourne provides many local shops and services, including a butcher, cheese shop, delicatessen, Co-Op, gp and dental practices, restaurants and a primary school. Nearby Bradfield College offers recreational facilities via membership. Pangbourne’s mainline station (2.1 miles) provides fast services to Reading and London Paddington whilst the M4 allows to nearby Newbury, Reading, London Heathrow and the wider motorway network.
