Garden Cottage, HookAbout this home

Garden Cottage lies on the Hampshire/Berkshire border in a rural setting surrounded by the Duke of Wellington’s estate of Stratfield Saye. It is an attractive family home with its brick-and- flint exterior and an abundance of natural light, a spacious basement, useful secondary accommodation and a separate games room. Built in 2003 for the current owners, the house has been finished to an exceptionally high standard with a block-and-beam floor construction throughout and great attention to detail. There is an impressive level of automation and technology built into the home that includes control of the lighting, electric curtains, Sonos music, security and gate systems. There is underfloor-heating throughout and bespoke oak joinery for the doors and central staircase. The drawing room has a concealed projector and screen, creating a surround sound cinema room. Off the kitchen is a south-facing loggia with overhead heating.
