Offered to the market for the first time in almost 80 years. Believed to have been separated from the surrounding farm in the mid-1960s, an exceptional opportunity for substantial renovation.
New House Farm is a classic red brick house, in need of substantial renovation and modernisation. The property offers elegant ground-floor reception rooms with wooden floors, high ceilings, sash windows with shutters, and a selection of charming fireplaces.
Arranged over three floors, it also benefits from a cellar and an annex.
A driveway on the west side of the house leads to a lawned garden enclosed by attractive brick and flint walls. The main garden lies to the east, featuring specimen yew trees and extensive lawns. This area is wonderfully private, with mature boundaries providing excellent screening. Beyond this lies a formally designed yew garden. Additional garden land may be available by separate negotiation. At the front of the house, a small walled garden and pathway lead to the main entrance.
Nestled in the sought-after village of Goring Heath—a charming rural hamlet set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty between the Berkshire Downs and the Chiltern Hills—this location offers the best of countryside living with excellent connections. The Thameside villages of Goring and Pangbourne are each just 3 miles away, providing a wide range of local amenities and a mainline rail service to London Paddington in under an hour. The historic market town of Wallingford lies 7 miles away, offering antique shops, local services, and a Waitrose, while Reading—home to extensive shopping and leisure facilities—provides a direct train service to London Paddington in approximately 27 minutes.
Families are well served by a superb choice of schools, including The Oratory, Radley College, Bradfield College, Cranford House, and Moulsford Preparatory School, along with excellent links to Oxford for further education. For leisure and recreation, the area boasts outstanding sporting opportunities, from golf and horse riding to clay pigeon shooting at The Royal Berkshire Shooting School, as well as beautiful walking trails and racing at both Newbury and Ascot.
