House, Beckfords, Upper Basildon, Berkshire

Occupying a prominent position within the desirable village of Upper Basildon, Woodlands is a handsome detached period home that has been thoughtfully restored and sensitively extended to create an exceptional family residence. Believed to date from late 1800’s, the property combines the charm and craftsmanship of its heritage with carefully considered contemporary additions, resulting in a home of considerable character and practicality.

The beautifully balanced accommodation extends to nearly 2,500 sq ft and is arranged over three floors. At its heart is a generous kitchen, complemented by a separate utility room and designed to provide the ideal hub for modern family life. The adjoining dining room enjoys a striking glazed roof lantern that fills the space with natural light and creates an inviting setting for both everyday dining and entertaining.

The principal reception rooms are well proportioned, including an elegant family room and a separate sitting room, each enjoying attractive views over the gardens and offering warm, welcoming spaces in which to relax. One additional reception room provides excellent flexibility and is equally suited as a study, a library, playroom or snug, making the property ideal for those seeking versatile accommodation and home-working space.

The first floor is centred around an impressive principal bedroom suite with fitted storage and a beautifully appointed en suite shower room. Three further bedrooms and a family bathroom are arranged on this level, while the second floor provides two additional bedrooms, creating excellent guest accommodation or independent space for older children.
