THE HOUSE
The grade II listed Old Craven Arms; dates back to 1850, was originally operated as a public house for the South Berkshire Brewery. This heritage is marked by the sign on the wall and the cellar door below. The drawing room, which once served as the bar area, stands as a subtle reminder of the Georgian home's storied past.

The house benefits from direct road access off Craven Road, which leads into a private courtyard. The courtyard has room for several cars and an additional two cars in the garage which is attached to the house. Whilst the house is listed, the rooms are all of good size and ceiling height. All rooms in the house benefit from an abundance of natural light and outstanding views of either the garden or land beyond.

Leading into the house from the courtyard, you arrive in the hall with a dual staircase leading to the bedrooms upstairs. To the right an inviting sitting room and downstairs bathroom adjoining the hall. To the left is the dining room, which leads through to an open plan kitchen diner and games room beyond. An internal corridor connects the kitchen to the drawing room, the former bar area. A door under the stairs leads down into the good sized cellar, which can also be accessed from the garden.

Walking upstairs, you immediately see a double bedroom in front of you. To the right is a further double bedroom and family bathroom. Left at the top of the stairs are two additional double rooms. A landing takes you round to the principal suite, which consists of a large study, double bedroom and ensuite bathroom. The large study could be repurposed into a dressing room with plenty of hanging and fitted storage space, subject to gaining the necessary consents. A further flight of stairs takes you up to a bedroom in the loft. The space is segregated by various alcoves which break up the room allowing for different uses.

The garden to the rear of the house is screened from the road by the house. Planning permission was historically granted for an indoor swimming pool and gym complex to be constructed, however works were never carried out. In addition to the well laid out and mature garden to the rear of the house, there is an additional paddock of about 1 acre which benefits from its own access.

THE LAND
The farm extends approximately 112 acres. The fields are used as permanent pasture land for hay making and historically livestock grazing. The farm was run as part of the family organic cattle business. In the last year the grass has been sold for Hay. The large pasture fields which forms Lot 4; formerly arable, present an extremely attractive opportunity to local buyers.

SHOOTING AND FISHING
There has never been a formal shoot on the land, however the various wooded areas provide a terrific opportunity for walked up days. Deer roam the land, providing a further sporting opportunities for those interested. The three ponds were stocked with Crayfish and Carp.

FARM BUILDINGS
The livestock buildings provide a terrific opportunity to be repurposed. The buildings benefit from a separate entrance from the road and include the stream, woodland and paddocks to the north.
