The AreaHollington

Hollington is a small hamlet in North Hampshire, 5 miles to the south-west of Newbury, near to the villages of Highclere and Woolton Hill. Between them these have some good local pubs, as well as a church, local shop with post office and C of E primary school and junior school.

The market town of Newbury is 5 miles away with its own mainline station. With its large open market square and numerous pubs, this bustling market town is suffused in history. But what you might not know is that contemporary Newbury is home to a fresh and energetic vibe, stoked by some great independent shopping, a sparkling array of nearby dining options and a thriving café culture. If that wasn’t enough, its locality to outstanding schools, great leisure facilities and abundant footpaths, mean the town is fast becoming West Berkshire’s most sought after small town.

Andover lies 13 miles away, situated on the River Anton which is a major source of the Test. It has excellent communications with a main line station to Waterloo as well as road access via the A303 and M3. It also has a good range of shopping facilities.

There are a number of excellent state and independent schools in the area and road communications, via the A34 are fantastic.

The Beehive, NewburyAbout this home

The Beehive not only offers light and space in abundance; it is a delightful period property that has been extended and improved and has a huge amount of charm and character. The end result is a house that offers excellent accommodation with delightful gardens, set in a private, yet highly accessible location. The property itself (formerly known as Falconswood), dates from the 17th Century and is Listed Grade II, has a large kitchen / breakfast room and three further reception rooms. There is a great deal of character to the property with its ‘chocolate box’ looks and multiple exposed beams. Upstairs there is also three bedrooms and three bathrooms. 

The gardens and grounds are simply stunning; extending to over 2 acres and is wonderfully private. There is a productive poly-tunnel as well as an outhouse beside that property, which subject to planning could make a delightful guest annexe. There is also lapsed planning consent for a two story extension. There is extensive garaging and there are three separate entrances to The Beehive.
