Location


The village of Upper Basildon sits on the edge of the Berkshire Downlands in an area of ‘Outstanding Natural Beauty’ with far reaching scenic countryside surrounding it on all sides.

The village itself offers a range of amenities including a parish church, community Post Office, highly regarded C of E primary school, and a traditional Public House serving local ale and food. A splendid new village hall which has become the centre for a variety of community sports and activities utilising its adjoining sports field and tennis courts exists also. A local bus company runs a limited service from the village to Pangbourne on Thames, where a mainline railway station with fast commuter services up to London (Paddington) in well under the hour (25 minutes from Reading) can be found.

Bradfield College, the well-known Public School located some three miles from Upper Basildon, has excellent leisure, fitness and sports facilities including a large indoor swimming pool all of which are available for use by members of the public. The facilities also include squash, badminton and tennis courts, hockey and a 9-hole golf course.

In addition to having its own well revered primary school, locally the area is also extremely well served by an excellent range of both state and private schooling, of particular note; St Andrews Prep School, Bradfield College, Pangbourne College, Downe House, Cranford House, Moulsford Preparatory, Abingdon Boys and The School of St Helen & Katharine.

The village enjoys excellent road communications with easy access to surrounding major towns and for the M.4 at Theale ( J.12 )
Property description


Built in the 1950’s, Greenways offers a rare opportunity, The house itself is traditionally constructed with red brick elevations and part tilled and part flat roof. Having been extended over the years to offer generous space, the house itself is in need of refurbishment and can be further extended, subject to relevant planning permission. It does benefit from having had UPVC windows recently fitted.

There is a detached double garage in a brick and flint design. 2 electric roller doors to the front take you into the garage which has an inspection car pit and ladder taking you up to loft storage above. There is a workshop area to the side and a log store with separate side door entrance. To the other side of the property is another extra long single garage. An early viewing is advised to take in all that the property offers.
Outside


Set within 1.2 acres of grounds and wonderful gardens, the plot is truly stunning. A large hedged frontage offers privacy which continues throughout the entire area. The gardens have been planted with flowers, shrubs and trees and been well tending to over the years. The driveway sweeps round to the front of the house and there is ample parking. The plot is fully lawned and has several parts. A bricked boundary ¾ of the way down hides a cottage garden and there is a large pond and shed/summer house, as well as a line of solar panels, perfect as it is south west facing. The far boundary has wonderful views of the adjacent fields and the whole plot is a huge asset and offers a wonderful opportunity.
