The AreaBrimpton

The property is on the edge of the pretty village of Brimpton and the popular market town of Newbury is eight miles away. The location of the property is also well placed for Reading, Oxford and London.

Almost equidistant between Newbury & Basingstoke, Brimpton offers idyllic village living at its finest.  Set between the magnificent Berkshire & Hampshire Downs it’s an idyllic spot with inexhaustible options for lovers of the outdoors. Newbury, with its large open market square and famous castle ruins, is a bustling market town is suffused in history. But what you might not know is that Newbury is home to a fresh and energetic vibe, stoked by some great independent shopping, a sparkling array of dining options and a thriving café culture. If that wasn’t enough, Brimpton is within very easy access to some outstanding schools, such as Cheam, Downe House, Elstree, St. Gaberiel’s, Horris Hill, Thorngrove, Brockhurst & Marlston House & Bradfield, as well as great leisure facilities and abundant footpaths. With both Reading and Basingstoke (Waterloo line) within striking distance, Brimpton is well-connected to some of London’s fastest rail-links and is well positioned for both the M4, M3 and A34.

Thornton House, BrimptonAbout this home

Approached by a sweeping drive with turning circle, Thornton House is a Georgian style property of over 4,200 sq. ft.  The current vendors have significantly extended and improved the property and the accommodation throughout is generous.  The numerous reception rooms allow a real flexibility, which the vendors have found that it is an excellent house for entertaining.  The large kitchen / breakfast room is very much the heart of the property with French Windows leading onto the terrace and garden beyond.

Everything here is about scale, and the beautiful gardens to the front and rear of the property are no different.  They are mostly laid to lawn and planted with specimen trees and herbaceous borders.

There is a separate one bedroom cottage above the garaging.  In addition there is an outdoor pool and a large paddock.
