On a sunny day, it’s difficult not to be entranced by the pink-rose-covered façade of pretty Glebe House, in Warfield, Berkshire. For sale through Strutt & Parker at an asking price of £1.4 million, this elegant property combines period character with modern living, making it an ideal family home.
The interiors span 2,355sq ft, with, on the ground floor, four reception rooms – a fine sitting room, a large dining room, a snug and a convenient study – all littered with fireplaces, log burners, or overhead beams, plus a sleek yet rustic kitchen featuring a central island with integral breakfast bar, an Aga, and integrated appliances.
Upstairs are five bedrooms, one of which is ensuite, plus a family bathroom.
Outside, the beautifully kept gardens have manicured lawns and well-stocked beds, as well as a range of outbuildings that includes two stables, a summerhouse, garage, wood and bike stores. The grounds also offer lots of room for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation (there's a spot that's perfect for a hammock).
Glebe House is for sale at £1.4 million via Strutt & Parker — see more pictures or enquire with the agent for further details.
