Harwood House is a delightful, detached property with plenty of character and attractive accommodation arranged over three floors. At the front of the property there is a sunny conservatory which acts as a welcoming light filled reception hall. The ground floor has a well-presented drawing room and a formal dining room, both of which have sash windows and fireplaces, and there is also a smaller, cosy sitting room with a dual aspect, offering views across the garden. The kitchen and breakfast room towards the rear of the house has a range of fitted units, integrated appliances, a butler's sink and an Aga range cooker, as well as space for a breakfast table. Steps lead down to the lower ground floor, giving access to the library and study, both with built-in shelving, and there are french doors from the study that open out onto the garden. On the first floor there are five double bedrooms, including the principal bedroom, which has built-in storage and an en suite shower room. One further bedroom is en suite, while two of the bedrooms have their own washbasins. There is also a large family bathroom with a bath and a separate shower unit.
The property is approached via a gravel driveway, which provides plenty of parking space and access to the double carport beside the house. The garden is predominantly to the side of the property, and includes paved terracing, beautifully maintained lawns and various mixed borders, hedgerows and mature trees. There is also a heated outdoor swimming pool with its own terrace and access to the brick-built pool house/cottage.
Harwood House is situated in the popular area of Woolton Hill, just south of Newbury. Positioned just on the West Berkshire/North Hampshire border, in the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the area is renowned for its rolling countryside with extensive walking and riding opportunities. Woolton Hill is an extremely sought after village and there is a thriving community, which benefits from very good local facilities including a shop/post office, church, doctors’ surgery, a pub, a tennis club, a monthly village market and excellent local schools. Further afield there are independent schools such as Downe House, Cheam and Horris Hill to name a few. Newbury itself is just 4 miles away and provides an excellent wider range of amenities including Waitrose, numerous gyms, golf clubs and the racecourse. Communications via both rail and road into London are excellent and the property is within easy access of the A34 and M4.
