Cherry Cottage is a Grade II listed characterful thatched property, that dates from the 17th century. The property has charming timber-framed and brick elevations beneath its thatch, while inside there are exposed timber beams and a wealth of original features.
The comfortable main reception room has timber beams overhead and features a grand Inglenook fireplace with a timber lintel, which has been fitted with a woodburning stove. Also on the ground floor is a useful study or library room, as well as the family bathroom and a galley kitchen fitted with modern units and integrated appliances.
Upstairs there are two well-presented bedrooms among the eaves, including the principal bedroom with its extensive built-in storage.<br /><br />The cottage is set in a delightful garden with rolling lawns, colourful flowerbeds and various established shrubs, hedgerows and trees. There is a brick pathway leading from the gated entrance to the front of the cottage, as well as a brick patio with a seating area and further paved terracing ideal for al fresco dining. At the front there is also a detached garage, providing covered parking, with a large store room at its rear.<br /><br />Cherry Cottage is conveniently situated in Ashford Hill village, and is only a short distance from Kingsclere which has a fantastic range of local facilities including a primary school, village shop, post office, butcher, doctors' surgery, chemist, hairdressers and gastro-pub. Ashford Hill itself has a popular primary school and
village church.
The beautiful surrounding countryside which includes the Ashford Hill nature reserve, is very popular for walking and riding and the area has all the advantages of rural outdoor space combined with accessibility to larger towns and transport links. The property is about half way between Newbury and Basingstoke so is in an excellent location for commuting, either by direct train service from Newbury into London Paddington or Basingstoke into London Waterloo, or by car via the M4, M3 or A34.There is a wide choice of highly rated schools in the area including Cheam, Elstree, Brockhurst and Marlston House, Horris Hill, Bradfield, Downe House and St Gabriel's
