Description

This unique detached farmhouse, a relic of the Bussockwood Estate dating back to the 18th century, presents a remarkable opportunity for renovation enthusiasts. Set in a private wooded setting with access via Totterdown Lane, this un-Listed property has been uninhabited for several years, necessitating comprehensive modernization to restore its former glory. The house sits on approximately one acre of grounds, featuring a good-sized garden and two brick barns alongside a brick-built wood store—ideal for potential conversion or additional storage. Beyond the immediate property, there is an option to negotiate for an additional 35.25 acres of land, enhancing its investment potential significantly. Located just north of Newbury, Snelsmore offers a picturesque countryside lifestyle with easy access to outdoor recreational activities in Snelsmore Common and stunning Berkshire Downs. The nearby market town of Newbury boasts a vibrant community filled with independent shops and dining options, plus excellent transport links to Reading and London. With top-tier schooling options nearby and major road networks easily accessible, this property is ideally situated for both personal living or as an investment opportunity—with significant scope for capital appreciation following renovation.
