It is a lovely spot.” Kitchen/breakfast room The space where most family life happens is big, light, thoughtfully laid out and well equipped.

Bathrooms Two bathrooms, both with showers and bath, WC and hand basin, serve the bedrooms. Landing There is a large landing with a large airing cupboard and ample eaves storage. Outside “It’s the first garden I've ever had where the sun has just been just right.” Benedict House is encircled by garden. Three sides are surrounded by high mature hedges that create a wonderful feeling of privacy and seclusion, the fourth side has a post-and-rail fence that ensures unbroken views across the neighbouring field to the hills beyond. “The garden gets the sun all day. It comes up over the pond area and then goes all the way round and, as it goes down in the west, you still get the sun in the evening.” “We get lots of birds including goldfinches. Some woodpeckers nest every year in the trees just up by the field, and kites nest in the wood just past us. It's lovely.” Within the garden are areas that come into their own at different times of the day or for different purposes. To the west side of the house is a large area of lawn. “There's enough grass for the kids to play cricket and badminton or whatever. My hot tub is there as well. So the kids liked to have that as their little area.” To the south side, a patio runs along the length of the house, accessed from the kitchen, dining and sitting room – perfect for when entertaining or dining alfresco. “In the early evening, my husband and I used to love having a glass of wine on the patio outside the dining room if it was nice, looking out. It was just so peaceful. It's so quiet here. Beyond the fence is either just sheep or grass.” To the east side, a covered area beside a pretty pond. “There's a lovely little seating area opposite the pond, which is a nice, quiet, relaxing place to sit, with the sound of the water trickling down the waterfall.” “It’s a nice, sheltered spot, which in all this very hot weather we've had, has been lovely. A breeze comes down off the hill, making it a wonderfully cool place to sit.” Across the back of the house, a mature wisteria provides stunning trailing colour in the summer, while planting at the front adds splashes of colour. “I have a lovely Japanese wisteria which we put in 34 years ago, , it's a really beautiful one. I also have three camellias at the front. I’ll miss them, but somebody else will enjoy them.” Within the garden, a mix of pots, beds and fruit trees provide colour, interest and, in good years, plenty of fruit – if you’ve ever dreamt of making jam or enjoy home baking, this garden should provide. “I've had a most wonderful crop of Victoria plums. We haven’t had as many apples this year as last year. But the plums are absolutely wonderful this year. I’ve been giving them away left, right and centre.” Parking The house has two approaches from the lane: the first via the main driveway to the front of the house, where there’s a double garage and parking for about 4/5 cars, with another entrance just beyond this to the side of the house, where there’s additional parking for another 4/5 cars. There is also a very large shed for storage and the location of the LPG tank. This home can accommodate a lot of visitors or an owner with a passion for cars. “We have the front drive, and down the lane, there's the back drive. There's parking there for about five cars, six cars. But when everyone's here, it's great because everyone can get squeezed in.” “When we have all the family here, they'll just look in the front drive and if that's full, they’ll just open the double gates at the next drive and come in and park there.” There is also a large shed In the area A popular village that originated in medieval times, today Inkpen is increasingly popular with families looking for a quieter, simpler, safer, more rural way of life. There is a great cricket ground and pavilion and a very popular playground. “There are lots of newer people coming in, younger people, which is good for the village. It's a very good village school, apparently. So that gets a lot of people in.” “Inkpen is a very friendly village. There's always something going on. I'm not as involved as I was, but there's loads of activities. And a village newsletter.” For dining out, the popular gastro pub, the Crown and Garter, which dates back to 1640, is just a short walk away. It is also home to the Honesty Café and bakery, both highly regarded. “There's a lovely walk through the woods. It takes about 10 minutes, then you're at the Crown and Garter. So if you suddenly decide you don’t want to cook, you can say ‘Oh, let's go and have a meal there’. They have a very nice coffee shop too. “When I had a dog, he used to find his own way there, cadging all sorts of treats from people.” “You can buy bread at the Crown, and one or two people sell fresh eggs nearby, you just leave the money in an honesty box.” In addition, for something Michelin-listed Woodspeen, Vineyard, Goat on the Roof and Malverleys are all within a short drive. This is great walking country, with walks through the woods and across the fields up to the hills and the famous Coombe Gibbet. “It's a super walking area. I mean, people drive their cars out here and park at the Crown to go for a walk.” For culture, you have the iconic and award-winning Watermill Theatre (also a dining location), Arlington Arts, the Corn Exchange and the Living Rainforest. The town centres of Newbury and Hungerford are eight and five miles away respectively. Both offer a range of shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs and amenities. Additionally, Newbury has a multi-screen cinema and a Racecourse that regularly hosted Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth and members of the royal family. Several golf courses can be found in and around the area, including Donnington & Co hotel, spa and golf club, Deanwood Park Golf Club, Donnington Grove Golf Club and Newbury & Crookham Golf Club. Good to know Some insights from our homeowner. “There is no light pollution here at all. There's no streetlight, nothing. You have wonderful black skies. It's lovely if you're into stargazing. It's just the best of best places.” “Inkpen is in one of the areas of outstanding natural beauty.” “We’re not overlooked by anybody. It’s lovely and peaceful here. The neighbours have had horses, there is lots of stabling and paddocks nearby” Transport links By car The main east-west and north-south arteries of the M4 and A34 are both approx. 15-minutes’ drive away, giving access to London, Bristol and Cornwall, as well as Oxford, Birmingham and the south coast. This is an incredibly well-connected location. By train Inkpen is a 10-minute drive from Kintbury station and a 20-minute drive from the better-served Newbury station. From these, trains run into Reading, home to the Elizabeth Line, and London Paddington, Didcot, Heathrow and Gatwick airports. To the west, trains run to Exeter St Davids and Penzance.

Sellers Insight “Penbwch Isaf Farm has been our home for the past 28 years. What first drew us here was the location. It offered the perfect balance of being wonderfully private and peaceful, yet incredibly well connected and convenient.” “The old milking parlour gave us the opportunity to create office space, which was ideal when we had a young family. We could work from home while still being close to our children.” “One of its most striking features is the conservatory/sun room. When people visit, they simply don’t expect such a spectacular outlook.” “My favourite room is undoubtedly the sun room. It is peaceful, private and filled with natural light. The views are stunning throughout the seasons.” “The garden is large, private and peaceful. I have my vegetable patch and sweet peas, and we are fortunate to share the space with an abundance of wildlife, which we have always encouraged.” “This has also been a wonderful home for entertaining. We have hosted countless parties and celebrations for our children over the years, many of them in the garden. The standout occasion was undoubtedly our daughter’s wedding, where we welcomed 180 guests under a beautiful tipi.” “Although the property enjoys a wonderfully tucked-away position, it is extremely convenient. Two train stations are within ten minutes, with Cardiff city centre just 12 minutes away by train. Everyday amenities are close at hand too, including Marks & Spencer just five minutes away. We are also fortunate to have some excellent local venues nearby, including Llanerch Vineyard and Lanelay Hall Hotel, both of which offer fantastic food.” “We are moving into the converted old milking parlour next door- so we’re really only swapping views. That, perhaps, says everything about how much we love this location. The move is simply about downsizing and embracing a new chapter.” “This farmhouse is approaching 300 years old, and throughout our time here we have felt more like custodians than owners. Now it is time for someone else to enjoy everything it has to offer.”* Directions: W3W///staked.altering.paddlers

The House. Set at the heart of the village of Whitchurch and commanding extraordinary, uninterrupted views across the Vale of Aylesbury, Bolebec House is a substantial and atmospheric country residence of exceptional architectural interest. Constructed of stone and brick beneath a gabled fa?ade, the house has evolved organically over four centuries, resulting in a home of great character, depth and flexibility. The earliest part of the house dates to the 16th century, still clearly identifiable in the library wing, reputedly built using stone salvaged from the ruins of nearby Bolebec Castle. Subsequent centuries introduced thoughtful additions and refinements, most notably during the Victorian period, evident in the elegant staircase and brick elevations. In the early 20th century the house was home to the family of celebrated artist Rex Whistler, who famously painted The Vale of Aylesbury from the grounds in 1933. In recent years, the current owners have undertaken an extensive and sensitive programme of refurbishment and modernisation, preserving the home`s historic integrity while introducing contemporary comforts. The addition of a bespoke orangery in 2022 has further enhanced the connection between the house, gardens and views. The accommodation extends to approximately 5,486 sq ft, arranged over three floors, and offers outstanding versatility.

Further reception rooms include a characterful library/sitting room within the original 16th-century structure, featuring rich panelling, extensive shelving and a wood-burning stove, as well as a snug/cinema room and a refined study with stained glass bay window. Bedroom Accommodation. The principal suite occupies a prime position on the first floor and has been conceived in the style of a luxury hotel. It includes a private drawing room with original fireplace, a serene bedroom with fitted storage, and a beautifully appointed en suite bathroom with roll-top bath and walk-in shower. There are six further bedrooms arranged across the upper floors, most with en suite facilities, combining historic charm exposed beams, leaded windows and vaulted ceilings with modern comfort and excellent storage.
