ASPIRE by Romans
The sellers view:
"There is a magic to Bridgeway Mansion that you only truly feel when the gates close behind you. We have loved the absolute silence and privacy here; it feels like our own private world, yet we’re only minutes from the convenience of Hook, Basingstoke and Reading.
Our favourite moments have been the mornings spent looking out over the canal—watching the local wildlife while having coffee is the most peaceful start to the day. The house was built for hosting; we’ve had countless summers by the pool where the doors are thrown open, and the house just feels 'alive.' It’s a home that manages to be impressive for guests but incredibly cozy for the family. Leaving the canal-sidewalks right from our doorstep is something we will miss dearly."
Bridgeway Mansion
This exceptional six-bedroom detached residence is set within the highly desirable village of Up Nately, near Hook in Hampshire, and enjoys a wonderfully private setting behind electric gates. Positioned within beautifully maintained grounds, with a picturesque canal running through the land, the property offers a rare combination of tranquillity, privacy and immediate access to surrounding countryside and scenic walking routes.
The house provides extensive and versatile accommodation, arranged across a series of elegant and well-proportioned reception rooms. In total there are five reception areas, four of which overlook the gardens and open directly onto the outdoor spaces, creating a seamless connection between the house and its setting. At the heart of the home lies a spacious open-plan kitchen and living area, thoughtfully designed to provide a natural hub for both everyday family life and entertaining on a larger scale.
The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive. The principal suite offers a luxurious and private retreat, complete with an en-suite bathroom featuring a double shower, double jacuzzi bath and a steam room.

Externally, the property continues to impress with its generous gardens, which provide a wonderful sense of space and privacy. A swimming pool offers an ideal setting for summer entertaining, while the extensive driveway provides ample parking alongside a double garage. The canal-side aspect further enhances the property’s peaceful semi-rural character and provides delightful walking routes directly from the doorstep.
