This beautiful and significant Grade II* listed building dates back to the 16th century, when it was originally part of the Windsor Estate. Built in 1575 by King Henry VIII as a hunting lodge for his daughter Queen Elizabeth I, it is a very substantial dwelling set over three floors.
Set on a plot of approx. 0.75 acres and within a short walk of Wokingham town centre, the substantial plot and property is steeped in history and has lots of unique features - including an old ship's mast as the central structure on the ground floor staircase.
The accommodation spans over 4000sq ft and comprises of a entrance lobby leading to a double aspect living room with a feature open fireplace and a door leading to the large, bright conservatory. To the right of the entrance hallway there is a spacious family room and a separate study. There is also a second study/office off of the central lobby, as well as access to a small cellar space - perfect for further storage.
The spacious 22ft farmhouse style kitchen/breakfast room benefits from many base units and features an aga. Off of the kitchen is a utility room and a separate storage/larder space.
On the first floor the master bedroom is a great size and benefits from a wardrobe and access to a modern four piece en-suite bathroom. There are three further double bedrooms on this floor with one benefitting from an ensuite shower room. On the top floor, there are two double bedrooms, a single and a further four piece en-suite bathroom.
Externally is where this property really catches the eye - a wraparound plot of 0.75 acres with a private driveway providing parking for plenty of vehicles and a beautifully kept lawned area. There are many detached outbuildings which could be converted to offices, gyms or useable rooms, subject to the usual consents.
Wokingham town centre is located within a short walk giving access to its many boutique shops, bars and restaurants, while Wokingham train station is also within easy access. There are a number of popular public and private schools nearby, whilst the A329M/M4 are within a short drive.
