Paddock House, Upper BasildonAbout this home

Nestled in a tucked away edge of village location, Paddock House has far reaching views over its own land looking out towards the rolling Berkshire Downs. The house has been comprehensively remodelled, extended and renovated by the current owners and the end result is a truly special and stylish family home. Set in just over 3.5 acres of land, made up of garden and paddocks, there is a tennis court, large garage and storage barn and a fully wired external home office. It is the attention to detail that really stands out from the beautiful bespoke kitchen with underfloor heating, to the parquet flooring in the sitting room, superb hard wood sash double glazed windows throughout and the reclaimed stone fireplaces that have been installed. This is a house that has been lovingly restored and provides the opportunity for the next owners to simply move in.
