Hidden within approximately 1.1 acres of mature gardens between the sought-after villages of Inkpen and Kintbury, Haycroft Copse occupies one of the most enchanting settings in the North Wessex Downs. Surrounded by rolling pasture, magnificent specimen trees and uninterrupted countryside, it offers a rare combination of complete privacy, generous family accommodation and an exceptional connection with the landscape.

Many country homes enjoy fine views. Few enjoy such a seamless relationship between house, garden and landscape. Rather than simply overlooking the countryside, Haycroft Copse feels part of it. The gardens blend almost imperceptibly into the surrounding countryside, creating an extraordinary sense of peace and seclusion where the changing seasons become part of everyday life.

Extending to approximately 2,577 sq ft (239 sq m), the house has been thoughtfully arranged to provide spacious and versatile accommodation for modern family life. At its heart is a generous kitchen, complemented by bright reception rooms that enjoy a wonderful connection with the gardens and surrounding countryside.

The ground floor provides generous and flexible living accommodation, together with a guest bedroom and adjoining shower room, offering excellent versatility for family life, visiting guests or multi-generational living. The first floor comprises four further double bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom, all enjoying excellent natural light and attractive views across the gardens and countryside beyond.

This property has 1.1 acres of land.

Outside

The property is approached via a private gravel driveway leading to an integral garage and ample parking.

Agents Note Haycroft Copse is available either individually or together with the neighbouring Bellbury House site, for which full planning permission has been granted for an exceptional new country house set within approximately five acres of gardens, grounds and woodland. Together, the properties present a rare opportunity that would be extremely difficult to replicate, creating exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living, while allowing each house to retain its own privacy, setting and individual character.
