House For Sale £1,200,000
Modern family home with outstanding views over the River.
Description
Located in the heart of the village, in a glorious position set back from the road and with a substantial garden leading down to the river Kennet, this wonderful four-bedroom family home
offers a rare and exceptional opportunity to enjoy a view for
all seasons.
As one of three detached houses completed in 1983,2 Orchard Green enjoys all the benefits of a spacious modern construction within an uncompromising rural location. There is excellent potential to extend subject to planning.
On entering the property there is a large hall which leads to all
the ground floor rooms. There is a dining room, a study, sitting room with a woodburning stove and large glazed sliding doors with a stunning view over the garden, River Kennet and water meadows beyond. An open-plan kitchen also enjoys the south facing garden views and has plenty of room for dining.
A door leads through a utility room to the south facing conservatory, again with southerly views and the double garage is accessed via a further internally connecting door. Upstairs, three double bedrooms are serviced by a family bathroom and the principal bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and wonderful views over the gardens.
Outside
Approached via a short private lane owned by the property and set behind a small village green with mature trees, this wonderful home offers ample parking with a large gravel drive in front of the double garage. A pedestrian gate leads around the side of the house, passing a useful lean-to outbuilding with walk-through access, large enough to house a tractor mower, to the main garden and paved terrace. The beautiful garden leading down to the River Kennet is the main attraction of the property, boasting a host of resident waterfowl and wildlife. It is laid mainly to lawn and abounded on each side by high hedgerows and attractive mature trees. The unspoilt views over the river and its rolling wooded backdrop are an extraordinary delight all year round
Location
Situated on the edge of the prime market town of Hungerford and a short distance from both Marlborough and Newbury,
Chilton Foliat is a popular and charming rural village, nestled
in the undulating landscape of the Marlborough Downs, with
the meandering chalkland River Kennet flowing through it. With its delightful mix of flintwork and thatched buildings, Chilton Foliat is an ancient settlement and has a vibrant community including an excellent Church of England primary school, The
Wheatsheaf pub and the 13th century St Mary’s Church.
Chilton Foliat is also within the catchment for the highly
regarded St John’s Academy in Marlborough. The surrounding countryside is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the village itself also lies within a conservation area
with some excellent bridle and footpaths. With its famous
antiques trails, the neighbouring town of Hungerford has a weekly market and a practical mix of supermarkets alongside
charming independent boutiques. There are also a number of pubs, restaurants and cafes and a mainline station with links to London Paddington in about an hour. The M4 (Jct 14) is just 4 miles away, which alongside the A34, offers excellent main
road access north, south, east & west.
