The current owners are looking to move for the first time in over 40 years and have beautifully renovated the property during this time.

The accommodation is arranged over 2 floors and includes a large reception hall/study, cloakroom and cellar.

The house has two family rooms; the aptly named winter sitting room features a large inglenook fireplace with French windows on to the rear terrace, and the additional sitting room enjoys plenty of light due to its double aspect.

The large dining room/kitchen with 4-door oil-fired Aga and a separate gas hob can be found through the stable door from the sitting room.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom with en suite overlooks the front garden and fields.

There are a further four bedrooms that share the family bathroom.

Outside
Invisible from the lane, the house is reached through a pair of five-bar timber gates, which open on to a generous-sized gravelled driveway with parking for several cars.

The timber barn is part open fronted. The other half of the barn is a useful workshop with plaster finish walls and ceiling, with a window facing over the garden and fields beyond, downlighting and electric sockets.

The attractive garden has productive fruit trees and a wildflower area with mature trees, topiary yew, and a wildlife pond with a paved terrace area looking on to the garden.


Knights Cottage is situated in the pretty hamlet of Poughley, 3 miles from Hungerford.

Hungerford has retained its character as a market town and is well known for its good range of shops, particularly antiques.

Conveniently placed for regional centres of Marlborough, Newbury and Oxford.

There is easy access to the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Poughley is 3 miles from Chilton Foliat with a village school and close to Marlborough College, St Johns, Downe House and St Gabriel's.

Places of interest

    Situated on the River Dun in the Kennet Valley, the historic market town of Hungerford sits at the heart of the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The North Wessex Downs is a unique landscape of tranquil open downland, ancient woodland and chalk stream, covering 668 square miles from Reading and Swindon to Andover and Devizes. At the same time, Hungerford is only four miles from the M4 motorway and has a direct rail link to London, so is very accessible. The fact that you can have lunch in a proper country pub and yet be in central London an hour later is a great attraction for many. From our office in the centre of Hungerford at Ramsbury House, Knight Frank helps homebuyers find their new home in Hungerford. Relocating from abroad?

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on June 14, 2022

    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: obtained from Ofcom on June 14, 2022

    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
