Winding Wood Cottage is a substantial double‑fronted family home set in almost 2,500 sq ft of flexible living space, arranged over two floors and sitting within a very large, well‑stocked plot. The house balances formal and informal rooms — a dual‑aspect sitting room with fireplace and vaulted lantern, a cosy snug with woodburner, and an L‑shaped kitchen/dining area opening to a paved terrace — all arranged to capture wide rural views across adjoining farmland. Solar panels with battery storage help reduce running costs and support a low‑impact lifestyle.
The mature, level rear garden is maintained with lawns, specimen planting, a timber summer house and several seating areas for alfresco entertaining. A stock‑fenced paddock and small orchard add scope for hobby grazing, small‑scale equestrian use or further landscaping. A five‑bar gated gravel drive leads to private parking and a detached double garage; above the garage is a vaulted room (over 24 ft) with clear conversion potential to an annexe or home studio (subject to planning).
Practical considerations are stated plainly: council tax is high, reflecting the property’s size and location, and mobile signal is only average. The annexe conversion is possible but would require planning permission and associated costs. The house is well positioned for country living yet within convenient reach of Kintbury, Hungerford and Newbury for shops, trains and schools — making it a strong choice for families seeking space, privacy and good commuter links.
