Goldfinch Cottage is a Grade II Listed detached property with plenty of period character, set in the heart of the highly desirable village of Kingsclere. The property is in need from modernisation throughout and provides flexible and adaptable living space with a wealth of original charm.

The main ground floor reception room is the 22ft sitting room, which has dual aspect windows including a bay window, and a fireplace with a woodburning stove. To the front there is a formal dining room and a study with French doors opening onto the light and airy conservatory. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a comfortable snug and a rear aspect kitchen with modern fitted units and space for all the necessary appliances.

Upstairs there are four bedrooms, including the principal bedroom, which has extensive built-in storage, and the second bedroom, which has its own washbasin. Also on the first floor is the family bathroom, along with a separate shower room.

The property is set in a mature garden, which surrounds the house and provides areas of lawn, established shrubs, colourful flowerbeds and paved terracing and pathways. The garden has several outbuildings, including a greenhouse. To the side of the house, a driveway leads to the detached double garage at the rear, as well as a carport and a further timber-framed garage, for further parking or storage space.

The property is set in the charming and historic village of Kingsclere, on the edge of the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village has a variety of everyday amenities, including a primary school, a village shop and a couple of local pubs. The bustling market town of Newbury is seven miles away, with its wide range of shopping, leisure facilities and choice of supermarkets. There are excellent schools in the area, as well as independent schools such as Cheam, Thorngrove, Horris Hill, St Gabriel’s, Downe House and many more. The area is well connected by road, with the A339 providing access to Newbury, Basingstoke and both the M3 and M4, which are 10 and 11 miles away respectively. Newbury’s mainline station provides services to London Paddington (40 minutes), while Basingstoke’s services to London Waterloo take approximately 45 minutes.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
