Malthouse Farm is situated in a private location
surrounded by beautiful farmland, yet within striking distance of excellent road and rail networks. This means that it provides the peace and quiet of a country house, yet has excellent connections to local business centres and central London. From the property there are some beautiful walks along country footpaths and lanes, yet it is within easy reach, via the A34, of Didcot Parkway, where there are trains to London Paddington in only 42 minutes.
Location
Local facilities can be found in Newbury, Hungerford and Wantage, which offer a comprehensive range of everyday shopping requirements. Further facilities can be found in
Oxford, which is also within easy reach. Malthouse Farm is also well placed for access to highly regarded schools in the area, both state and private, including Downe House, Marlborough College, Radley College, Abingdon School, St Helen and St Katharine, and other respected
schools in Oxford. It is also within the catchment for the highly respected Downs School in Compton, which has always had an excellent reputation. In addition, there is an excellent local primary school in the village, which has been popular with parents for many years. Malthouse Farm is a spacious unlisted country house of Georgian origins occupying a very quiet location
surrounded by beautiful countryside. The house is
approached by a sweeping drive and sits in a private location within the grounds, with the majority of the principal rooms and garden facing south. The property extends to approximately 5,000 sq ft and is a very comfortable, family-sized home, presented to a high standard throughout. The whole house is lovely and light and has high ceilings with well-proportioned rooms. The
present vendors have improved the property during their ownership, but there is also scope for it to be extended further should a purchaser wish to create more accommodation.
The house is in a private location surrounded by its own garden and grounds. Directly behind the property is a large terrace providing an excellent outside entertaining area, and the garden is very established, with a range of mixed borders, shrubs, trees and plants. It also has the benefit of a hard tennis court and the agricultural/grazing
land beyond.
The secondary accommodation is extremely useful and comprises a two-bedroom cottage and a separate studio flat, both in an attractive converted barn to one side of the drive. Perfect for guests, extended family members or staff. In addition, there is a substantial original farm
building which provides an indoor swimming pool, a gym, a garden store, a garage and storage.
Please note that there is a permissive footpath which provides an alternative to the current footpath situated to the west of the house. This could be formalised subject to the usual consents. Please ask the agent for further information. Also, 20 acres of the land is presently let on a farm licence.
Services: Mains water and electricity (backup generator), a private drainage system and oil-fired heating.
