Attractive period house looking south over the Kennet Valley.
Description
Kennet House is an attractive and charming period house that has been extended to create a lovely family home. The large entrance hall leads to both the generously proportioned drawing room and the dining room on one side of the house, with the kitchen/breakfast room and the sitting room opening into the conservatory offering a more informal space. The principal bedroom suite is of particular note, with its large dressing area and bathroom with views over the garden. The house is light and faces south over the gardens with views over the Kennet Valley.
Gardens
Kennet House is approached from the lane to gravelled parking to the front of the garaging. The mature and well-stocked gardens lie to the rear of the property with a generous terrace running along the south elevation looking out over the lawns to the Kennet Valley beyond. To the south and west of the house is a tennis court. The outbuilding consists of garaging with a playroom above and attached double carport.
N.B. Planning permission to convert part of the garaging into a 2 storey cottage has been applied for : Planning application: 21/02662/HOUSE.
