Set within about 3.5 acres of mature grounds, Manor House is a substantial Tudor‑style family home offering flexible living across 4,512 sq ft. The house combines period character — exposed brickwork, fireplaces and a handmade oak staircase — with high‑quality modern finishes, fitted kitchen, multiple reception rooms and five bath/shower rooms. Large principal and guest suites, plus a versatile sixth bedroom/cinema room, suit family life and home working.
Outdoor space is a standout: long private drive, automated gates, sweeping lawns, paddock, screened swimming pool, summer house and multiple outbuildings give scope for hobbyists, equestrian use or additional storage. Parking is generous with a double garage and extensive gravelled forecourt. The layout and plot will suit buyers seeking space, privacy and countryside living while remaining within reach of Twyford, Maidenhead and commuter rail to London.
Practical points to note: heating runs on an oil‑fired boiler and main fuel is oil (not a community supply), which can mean higher running costs; council tax is described as quite expensive. Broadband speeds in the area are slow, so those needing fast home internet should check available upgrades. The pool and outbuildings will require ongoing maintenance; while the house has been upgraded over 20 years, prospective buyers should allow for routine upkeep of a large period property and extensive grounds.
This home will appeal to families and buyers wanting an established countryside estate close to good schools and commuter links. It offers immediate move‑in comfort with scope to tailor interiors and outbuildings to personal needs, while the substantial plot provides long‑term lifestyle and income potential (subject to planning).
