Impressive Family House Set In Approximately 15 Acres Of Beautiful Private Grounds With Tennis Court

The Forest House enjoys a peaceful setting just outside Newbury, surrounded by a blend of landscaped gardens and mature, historic woodland. Over time, the house has been thoughtfully extended to create a substantial yet welcoming home, offering around 4,500 sq. ft of versatile living space, perfectly suited to modern family life.

At the heart of the home is a striking open-plan kitchen and breakfast room, designed for both everyday living and entertaining. This generous space comfortably accommodates a large dining area and features an oil-fired AGA alongside sleek wooden cabinetry. French doors open directly onto a wide southwest facing terrace that runs the full width of the house, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The reception rooms are equally impressive, including an elegant L-shaped drawing room with both a log-burning stove and open fireplace, as well as a separate cosy sitting room or study.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom suite is a standout feature, complete with a private bathroom and large sliding bifold doors opening onto a sheltered balcony beneath the eaves. There are six additional bedrooms and three further bathrooms, all enjoying tranquil views across the surrounding gardens and woodland.

The approach to the house enhances its sense of privacy, with electric wooden gates opening onto a sweeping gravel driveway that winds through the trees. This leads to a spacious parking area and an attractive three-bay green oak garage/barn, currently used as a party barn and single garage, with an artist’s studio above. Additional outbuildings include a second garage, log store, and garden shed.
