Wayfarers was completely remodelled in the mid-1990s. Today, the house offers excellent family accommodation over two floors and has retained much of its charm and character.
The large and welcoming galleried reception hall provides access to the drawing room, with its open fireplace and doors out to the garden and a door through to the dining/garden room. The sitting room has an open fire and a good range of cupboards. In addition, is a study. The kitchen/breakfast room is of an excellent size and is well fitted with a good range of floor and wall cupboards. A central island provides a breakfast bar, built-in appliances, including a Neff electric oven, griddle and gas four-ring hob, and space for a dishwasher and fridge freezer. A connecting door leads through to the dining/garden room.
Off the kitchen are the walk-in larder with extensive shelving and the utility room with fitted cupboards and plumbing for a washing machine and dryer. There is a boiler room with a newly installed boiler system. In addition, on the ground floor is a guest bedroom adjacent to a cloak/shower room.
The principal bedroom is on the first floor, with wonderful views over the garden and surrounding countryside, a walk-in wardrobe with extensive storage, and an adjoining bathroom with twin basins, shower, bath and WC.
There are three bedrooms, one of which has an adjoining bathroom, and the others are served by the family bathroom.
Wayfarers is set back off the village lane on the edge of the desirable and highly accessible village of Leckhampstead on the Berkshire Downs, to the northwest of Newbury. The property is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is designated as an Outstanding Natural Beauty Area.
The popular village of Chieveley is approximately 5 miles to the south and has a church, doctor's surgery, village store, post office, Primary School and The Red Lion Public House.
The property is well situated for the nearby towns of Newbury (7 miles) and Hungerford (8 miles). Newbury provides more extensive facilities, including a Waitrose Supermarket, whilst Hungerford has shops, boutiques and
coffee shops.
Leckhampstead is well located to benefit from the excellent road networks provided by the A34 (5 miles) and M4, Junction 13 (6 miles), which link to the national motorway network. There are also excellent rail communications, including services from Newbury or Didcot Parkway to London Paddington, taking approximately 40 minutes and 38 minutes, respectively.
There are numerous well-renowned schools in the area, including Cheam, Horris Hill, Cothill, Elstree, Radley College, Marlborough College, Bradfield College and Downe House, but to name a few.
Communication links are excellent, with Junction 13 of the M4 providing easy access to London, Heathrow Airport or the west country. The A34 (5 miles) links the A40 to the north and the M3 to the south.
