Property description
Ideal for the 'London buyer' looking for country surroundings in Beautiful Berkshire with fantastic commuter links into the city of London.
A beautiful Eight Bedroom Detached house dating back to 1923 and situated in what is considered to be one of the most prestigious and sought after locations within this part of Berkshire. Wellingtonia Avenue is a road lined with over one hundred giant sequoia trees, known at the time of planting as Wellingtonia. The road was built in 1863 through woodland known as Finchampstead Ridges to the east of Finchampstead. The woodland is now managed by the National Trust. The road leads from the ridges in the west toward Wellington College in Crowthorne to the east. The trees were planted in the early 1860s as a memorial to the Duke of Wellington, who had lived in the nearby Stratfield Saye estate.
Accommodation is substantial here and completely versatile. There is also further potential for extension and remodelling subject to planning consents and the property enjoys a vast plot of approximately 2.7 acres of private grounds backing on to woodland. There is even a Par3 golf hole for the budding golfer and a full size slate bed snooker table within the games room.
