Stunning, modernised, Grade II listed Regency home in a highly regarded village. Set in delightful grounds of around 0.62 of an acre with heated swimming pool.
This magnificent Regency period home dates back to 1836 and is Grade II listed.
The current owners have spent the last few years carrying out significant improvement works to create the stylish, practical living space you see today, with much attention to detail whilst retaining plenty of the original character.
The ground floor reception rooms are arranged off the hallway, with a guest cloakroom to the rear. The sitting room is triple aspect with lovely views over the side and rear gardens, a wood burning stove and built in cupboards. The study also has a fireplace with wood burner. The dining room leads into the bespoke fitted kitchen, with the units in here and the adjacent playroom built by John Lewis of Hungerford. A delightful garden room provides an everyday family area opening onto the gardens. Accessed under the stairs, is the cellar which provides excellent storage space.
Upstairs, there are five bedrooms. The main bedroom suite enjoys a walk through dressing room leading into a sumptuous en suite bathroom. The second bedroom also has an en suite, with the remaining rooms sharing the family bathroom, which has a lovely roll top bath.
The house sits in a substantial, mature plot of around 0.62 acres with established hedging providing a good deal of privacy. The formal rear and side gardens have been tastefully landscaped to provide much interest. The rear part of the garden has a new sunken wooden swimming pool heated via air source and salt water system.
At the front, the gravelled carriage driveway provides plenty of parking, with a double cart lodge and electric car charging point.

Having worked in London for many years it was a pleasant surprise to find this house finished to a London quality in such a lovely location outside of the City. Barkway ticks lots of boxes and homes with this much character, in such good condition, are a rare find.
