Kennys Farm is an exceptional country residence of considerable character and distinction, set within approximately 3.29 acres of beautifully maintained grounds and surrounded by unspoilt Berkshire countryside. Combining period charm, equestrian facilities and outstanding connectivity, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a private rural retreat without compromising on convenience.
Approached via a long, tree-lined driveway and secured by electric gates at both ends, the property immediately conveys a sense of arrival and exclusivity. A sweeping gravel forecourt provides extensive parking and access to a substantial double garage, while direct access to an extensive network of countryside walks enhances the lifestyle appeal of this remarkable home.
The accommodation is both elegant and versatile, extending to a series of beautifully proportioned reception rooms designed for modern family living and sophisticated entertaining. The impressive drawing room is centred around a magnificent inglenook fireplace, while a separate family room with wood-burning stove offers a more intimate setting. A formal dining room opens directly onto the gardens, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
At the heart of the home lies the country kitchen, complete with a traditional AGA and adjoining conservatory, providing a light-filled space for informal dining with views across the grounds. A generous utility room and guest cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
A graceful turning staircase, illuminated by a large feature window, rises to the first floor where the principal bedroom suite enjoys a stylish contemporary en-suite shower room. A second guest suite also benefits from its own en-suite facilities, while three further bedrooms, two with fitted wardrobes, are served by a recently refitted family bathroom finished to an excellent standard.
The grounds are a particular feature of Kennys Farm. Extending to just over three acres, they comprise formal gardens, paddocks, stabling, a tack room and a range of useful outbuildings, offering superb potential for equestrian pursuits, hobby farming or lifestyle use. One outbuilding incorporates a workshop, boiler room and external WC.
Perhaps the most extraordinary feature of the estate is its historic 11th-century moat, a protected Scheduled Monument that lends an unrivalled sense of heritage, provenance and prestige. This rare and captivating feature creates a truly unique setting that few properties can rival.
Despite its idyllic rural position, Kennys Farm is exceptionally well connected, with swift access to the A33, M4 and the commercial centres of Reading, Wokingham and Basingstoke. The nearby village of Swallowfield provides a range of everyday amenities including a village store, post office, traditional public house, doctor's surgery, church and village hall.
The area is renowned for its outstanding leisure and sporting facilities, including prestigious golf courses at Bearwood Lakes, Crowthorne, Calcot Park and Caversham, as well as tennis clubs, health and fitness centres and the renowned Nirvana Spa. Racing enthusiasts are within easy reach of Newbury, Windsor and Ascot racecourses, while excellent equestrian facilities can be found at Farley Equestrian Centre and Wellington Riding.
Kennys Farm offers an increasingly rare combination of historic significance, equestrian capability, exceptional privacy and refined family living, all within easy reach of some of the South East's most important commercial and transport connections.
