Description
A FANTASTIC FAMILY HOME WITH A SWIMMING POOL AND TENNIS COURT IN A SOUGHT AFTER LOCATION, WITH STUNNING VIEWS.
BRACKENFELL
Nestled in a secluded and tranquil location on the edge of Kingwood Common, Brackenfell stands proudly, offering breathtaking views over the Chilterns AONB. The property is set on land that was once owned by the family of the renowned author Ian Fleming. In 1929, the land was sold to Somerville Hastings, the Member of Parliament for Reading (1923-24 and 1929 31), who constructed Brackenfell. It was Edith Summerskill, one of his colleagues, who famously stated that the “idea of a National Health Service originated in the welcoming atmosphere” of Brackenfell. Brackenfell is a charming and impressive period property that has been thoughtfully extended and modernised by its current owners. The home boasts generously sized reception rooms that flow seamlessly into one another. The upper floors offer five bedrooms and five bathrooms, providing plenty of space for both family and guests. Additionally, there is a self-contained office above the triple garage, which could easily be converted into a bedroom, offering both privacy and convenience.
OUTSIDE
Brackenfell has approximately three acres of gardens including a swimming pool, tennis court, and orchard, as well as a large triple garage with office / games room above, and a further five acre paddock.
