Kings Farm is a detached 17th-century property situated in the southwest of Newbury, within the village of Enborne Row – a great choice for commuters needing access to the motorway network. The property offers all the charm and character of a house of its significant age, yet without the constraints of being listed. As such the house has been sympathetically modernised
and enlarged to create a very stylish and generously proportioned home: The interiors are beautifully appointed to a high standard, marrying modern conveniences with original features like exposed beams. The house is set within an attractive, sizeable plot, with off-street parking to the front, a large garage and gorgeous mature gardens to the rear, which are perfect for entertaining.
Interior
Though the detached property dates back to the 17th century, it has been extended in the 1950s, 1970s and again in 2021, so it is a spacious example of a period cottage. The substantial accommodation extends to more than 3600 sq ft and is split between the main house and a separate annexe studio, which can be selfcontained or combined with the main house to increase the accommodation on the ground floor. The annexe has its own kitchen, shower room and living/bedroom and is currently used as a gym, but also presents a good option for an au pair or perhaps older children or grandparents
living at home. The main house is a mix of the original character property and its more recent additions. Within the original part of the house, the feel is that of a charming
cottage, with exposed timber beams, stone fireplaces and smaller windows displaying the house’s history. In the newer additions, high ceilings and large windows providing an abundance of natural light, with fabulous
views over the gardens. The ground floor has two goodsize reception rooms, the light-filled open plan kitchen and dining room to the rear, plus a separate laundry room, boot room and WC. Upstairs there are five double
bedrooms, two of which are en suite, plus two family bathrooms.
Outside
The gardens are wonderfully well established and landscaped with a variety of trees and shrubs, which border large parcels of lawn creating a natural feel of privacy. The garden culminates in the river Enborne, which forms a boundary at the far end. There are several different spaces for seating, allowing different
vantage points over the garden, and a terrace spanning the rear of the house which can be connected to the kitchen/dining room via a series of bifold doors – a fabulous option for alfresco dining in the summer months. Outbuildings include a summerhouse and a ‘bath house’ with twin tubs and an area for washing dogs, plus a number of useful sheds.
The house is set back from the road behind a brick and flint wall, with a large ‘in and out’ gravel driveway to the front and easy access to the detached tandem garage which features a car lift to accommodate three vehicles.
Situation
Situation
Enborne Row is a small hamlet situated about 2 miles southwest of Newbury. The village has a pub and is on the doorstep of beautiful countryside, including the rolling chalk escarpments of the North Wessex Downs and the National Trust land at The Chase. Newbury provides a full range of shopping and recreational amenities, including a Waitrose supermarket, a David
Lloyd gym, golf clubs and a racecourse. Newbury station offers fast commuter services to London Paddington. The A34, M4 and M3 can be easily accessed for travel towards London and its airports or the West Country. Educational needs are well served, with local state schools in the neighbouring villages. There are a good range of independent schools nearby, including local
private schools St Gabriel’s, Thorngrove, Downe House, Bradfield College, Pangbourne College and Cheam School and local state secondary schools St Bartholomews and Park House. There are also several primary schools in Enborne, Woolton Hill and Wash Common.
