Terrys LaneCookham, Berkshire, SL6 9RR

Paddocks is a traditional detached residence set within mature gardens and grounds extending to approximately 1.08 acres. Dating from the 1930s the property is rich in character, with well-proportioned accommodation. Once a much-loved family home, it presents a rare opportunity to restore a characterful residence, with excellent scope for modernisation and extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

The accommodation is arranged around a traditional entrance hall and includes three reception rooms, providing excellent flexibility. The spacious sitting room is centred around an attractive open fireplace with timber flooring underfoot. French doors open onto a covered veranda, forming part of the distinctive brick turret that adorns the south-east elevation of the house. A small conservatory that can be accessed externally from the gardens, sits on the south-west side of the property.

The dining room enjoys views over the gardens and is positioned opposite the kitchen. Finished with tiled flooring, the kitchen is fitted with timber cabinetry. While now requiring updating, it presents an opportunity to create a superb kitchen. A pantry, utility room, additional cloakroom and boiler room further enhance practicality, while also offering excellent potential for reconfiguration.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect with far-reaching views, and benefits from built-in storage, an en suite bathroom and a delightful, covered balcony, positioned within the second storey of the turret. With its south-east orientation, it provides a particularly peaceful spot to enjoy the surrounding countryside. Three further bedrooms are served by a bathroom. Two are doubles with built-in wardrobes, while the landing also incorporates two cupboards, providing practical storage.

Outside
Entered via a five-bar gate, the gravel driveway curves gently towards the front of the house, offering parking for several cars and access to a brick-built double garage with additional storage to the rear. Traditional brick elevations, softened by a mature wisteria and climbing rose, are complemented by characterful leaded windows, creating an attractive and quintessentially English country house appearance.

The property is enveloped by its generous, mature gardens, which are enclosed by established hedging and interspersed with specimen trees and shrubs, creating a park-like environment. Mature trees cast dappled shade, and a charming pond adds further interest to the north lawn. Offering both space and privacy, the grounds are ideal for outdoor entertaining and provide exceptional potential for further landscaping.
