A grand welcome is offered by the decorous, panelled reception hall of Yattendon Court, with feature fireplace and open aspect to the galleried landing above which is reached by a splendid staircase. Believed to date to 1925, this fine country house was home to the first Lord Iliffe, with its conversion seeing the formation of 14 individual apartments during the 1970s. Lift-access is available to reach Number 10 which provides an appealing and well-presented apartment-home. Inside, the reception hall gives access, via a step-level change, to a spacious drawing room, which is centred around a fireplace set within an arched alcove. There is ample space for dining in this sociable room which offers the perfect setting for hosting guests. Featuring attractive herringbone flooring, the adjacent kitchen is fitted with modern wall and base level cabinetry, including a wine rack unit, with some integrated appliances and space for a washing machine.
The apartment offers two bedrooms, both with bay windows, and one of which currently provides an excellent office for a home worker.

With smart, contemporary fixtures, the bathroom provides a shower fitting over the bath tub and an ultra-modern countertop bowl basin.

Within easy reach is the pretty Thameside village of Pangbourne offering an excellent range of facilities including a church, primary school, pubs and restaurants and several specialist shops, including an award-winning butcher and specialist cheese shop. The mainline railway station offers services to London Paddington and for car journeys, there is convenient access to the M4 which provides links to major road networks.
