DESCRIPTION
Stepping through the entrance hall, you're immediately drawn into the heart of the home. To your left, an impressive dining room awaits, anchored by an attractive fireplace and currently featuring a warming oil-fired stove. To the right, a spacious lounge offers a comfortable retreat, complete with another attractive fireplace now enhanced by the inviting glow of a Hetas compliant wood burner. Both the dining room and lounge seamlessly flow into the modern and well-equipped kitchen. This light-filled space, with its integrated dining area, truly serves as the hub of the home – a wonderful area to gather and connect, with convenient doors leading directly to the rear gardens. Completing the ground floor is a useful study, providing excellent flexibility for work or hobbies. Ascending the stairs, the home's character and quality continue on the first floor. Here, you'll find three comfortable bedrooms, each offering lovely views of the surrounding countryside. A well-appointed family bathroom caters to all needs, featuring both a separate bath and shower.
OUTSIDE
A newly landscaped double driveway provides generous parking and leads to a substantial double garage. To the right of the house, a useful additional store and workshop offer convenient access through to the rear garden. The plot itself is a real highlight, extending to approximately 0.3 acres. Directly from the house is a spacious patio area, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, which opens onto level lawns attractively planted with an array of mature shrubs and borders.
To the right, a quality timber outbuilding offers further flexible space, while the garden extends to a second patio area complete with a charming gazebo – a wonderful spot to enjoy the picturesque countryside views over rolling farmland, enhanced by the favourable south-westerly aspect. There is also the option to acquire an additional parcel of land beyond the main garden under separate negotiation. The property has recently benefitted from a newly completed Combed Wheat thatch, finished with a delightful straw finial adding to the cottage’s character and charm.

Hill Green is a small hamlet situated within the civil parish of Leckhampstead in West Berkshire, England. Hill Green, like the wider Leckhampstead parish, is nestled within the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This designation signifies a landscape of high scenic quality, characterised by rolling chalk hills, open downland, and pockets of woodland. Hill Green offers a more enclosed and potentially historically significant setting within the picturesque, rolling chalk landscape of the North Wessex Downs, slightly separated geographically from the main part of Leckhampstead village. The village fosters a strong sense of community, with a village hall hosting regular events and a historic church at its heart. This particular property falls within the catchment area of the renowned Downs School at Compton. Leckhampstead is approximately 7 miles north of Newbury and 8 miles south of Wantage. The A34 trunk road is located approximately 5 miles to the east, providing access to the M4 motorway (Junction 13, about 6 miles away), linking to London, Heathrow Airport, and the West Country.
