Situated at the edge of the pretty village of Chieveley, the house has fine views including that of St Mary’s Church that dates back to the 15th century.
This beautifully proportioned late 18th century manor house, built of soft hued red brick with three attractive west facing bay windows across the front façade is the ideal family home. The accommodation offers a very elegant ground floor set of reception rooms alongside a study and a family kitchen and utility wing.
On the first floor, the principal and family bedrooms are arranged in such a way as to allow for a separate but interconnected nursery or staff wing to work brilliantly and seamlessly into the flow of the house.
There is so much about Chieveley Manor to enjoy, not only does the house sit so well in the landscape, it has the feeling of a small estate.As you would expect of a property of this quality, the gardens are a delight and planted with skill and care. It enjoys the amenities of a tennis court and swimming pool.
A charming Lodge House (to be sold separately as Lot 2) provides additional and flexible accommodation along with a stable cottage which also sits as part of a wonderful story. Looking ahead to the next chapter in the life of this house we have identified (subject to the necessary planning consents) a variety of uses which might include extensive garaging for a classic car collection, further auxiliary accommodation or leisure amenities.
