6 bedroom detached house for sale

Recently remodelled over the winter, Castleton has been thoughtfully enhanced with the addition of two further bedrooms, each with its own en suite, bringing the total to six bedrooms and six bathrooms, five of which are en suite. Occupying an elevated position atop Pye Hill, this 6 bedroom detached property sits secluded within its own private oasis, while enjoying far-reaching and captivating views across the rolling Berkshire countryside. Extending to approximately 5,700 sq. ft. Castleton offers an exceptional blend of privacy, scale, and refined living. Entered via an impressive covered entranceway, the property opens into a magnificent central reception hall, perfectly aligned to frame a breathtaking view through to the rear gardens and countryside beyond. From here, the home unfolds with a natural sense of balance and symmetry. To the left lies the bedroom wing, comprising three beautifully appointed bedrooms. All benefit from their own en suite bath or shower rooms, and a further well-appointed family bathroom and study. Bedroom 3 is particularly striking, offering a luxurious retreat with panoramic views across the gardens and surrounding landscape, complemented by extensive fitted wardrobes and a generous en suite bathroom featuring a large bath and walk-in shower. Returning to the central hall, the principal living spaces extend to the right, designed for both formal entertaining and relaxed family living. These include an elegant dining room, a superb open-plan kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, further study, garden room, and an impressive main living room. The kitchen is beautifully finished with a comprehensive range of integrated appliances, stone work surfaces, bespoke cabinetry, and a central island with induction hob and adjoining glass-topped dining area. Beyond, a WC and pantry/larder provide further practicality, while a separate study leads through to the stunning garden room, where panoramic views once again take centre stage. The main living room is a particularly grand space, extending to over 28 feet in length, with a dual-aspect orientation, feature fireplace, bespoke cabinetry, and direct access onto a substantial decking terrace. Upstairs, the landing now leads to two well-proportioned bedrooms, replacing the former games room. The principal suite offers a real sense of luxury, featuring a newly installed en suite shower room, a spacious dressing room, and far-reaching views across the Finchampstead countryside. A second bedroom also benefits from its own en suite, with a 6th bedroom/games room rounding off the accommodation upstairs. Set within approximately 2.3 acres, the beautifully landscaped grounds of Castleton have been meticulously designed to complement the natural contours of the plot. The property is approached via secure, remotely operated gates, with a sweeping driveway leading to extensive parking and a four-car garage, above which is a versatile space previously granted (now lapsed) planning consent for a self-contained annex. The gardens surrounding the house are immaculately maintained, featuring expansive lawns, a series of elegant water features, and a charming meandering stream with footbridge and folly. A seamless blend of patio and decking areas wrap around the property, creating ideal spaces for al fresco entertaining, all enjoying picturesque views across the surrounding countryside. Beyond, the grounds transition into enchanting recreational woodland, with winding pathways through seasonal daffodils and bluebells, offering both privacy and a truly idyllic setting. Additional space to the side of the property also presents further potential for extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
