Location
The quiet rural village of Compton lies in a gentle fold on the rolling Berkshire Downlands in an “aonb”. Situated to the North of Newbury the village enjoys a delightful unspoilt location whilst having the advantage and convenience of access to an excellent road network and with trains for London available locally as well.
Historically Compton is steeped in farming and country lore and this continues today with also the association with horse racing. The village has a beautiful flint walled Parish church and many period properties reflecting its long architectural heritage. In the village there is a Village Post Office, Barbers, a Primary School and the highly regarded “The Downs” secondary school, which has attained high levels of academic success and now boasting a 6th form.
In addition to having its own well revered primary school and secondary school, locally the area is also extremely well served by an excellent range of both state and private schooling, of particular note; Bradfield College, Pangbourne College, Downe House, Cranford House, Moulsford Preparatory, Abingdon Boys and The School of St Helen & Katharine.
Property description
Occupying a superb setting close to the Parish Church with gorgeous surrounding and unspoilt countryside the property enjoys a commanding elevated position affording far reaching rural views.
A recently converted period farm building of great charm and architectural merit, the building is an interesting mixture of both traditional brick and timber elevations under two complimentary pitched clay tiled roofs, and has been the subject of a sympathetic and skilful conversion into a magnificent private residence.
An especially stunning interior reflects the careful retention and enhancement of its original construction displaying a wealth of exposed structural timbers, vaulted ceilings, and galleried landings / reception areas, together with a ‘state of the art’ approach to internal design and arrangement. Features include a fabulous fitted Kitchen / Breakfast Room with granite work surfaces, impressive Sitting Room / Dining Room having vaulted ceiling and galleried landing above with feature Scandinavian Log Burner and French doors leading to the rear garden, and innovative Bath Rooms and Shower Rooms. There is also a sophisticated under-floor central heating system to the ground floor with stone flooring to most rooms adding to the overall warmth and feel of the property.
The accommodation throughout is an absolute treat, being visually stimulating and most impressive, and will appeal to connoisseurs of traditional property that embrace contemporary harmony.
