All rights reserved. Licence number 100022432. BILL HILL PARK, TWYFORD ROAD, WOKINGHAM, RG40 5QT 5 The Opportunity Totalling 55 acres in a secluded and affluent Berkshire location, the historic estate comprises the 18th Century Georgian house with indoor swimming pool and tennis court, a converted office building, five individual cottages, and mixed-use outbuildings set amongst landscaped gardens. The site is held exclusively in private ownership and provides exciting opportunities for short term redevelopment, in addition to wider promotion potential. History The estate benefits from a rich history with the present site having been remodelled significantly over centuries. The main house was built between 1700 and 1720 as a hunting lodge in the forest and was owned by Lord Montague Blundell. The estate then acquired further common land which now forms part of the current grounds. Through changing ownership over the following centuries, the extent of buildings has changed considerably, increasing in the Georgian and Victorian Periods before being reduced in the mid-20th Century. Additional wings and extensions were created within the house, in addition to the erection of further outbuildings around the estate. During the Second World War the site was briefly occupied by the military before being sold to a new owner in the 1950’s who made alterations to the main house and outbuildings. Following this, the estate has been under the same family ownership since the early 1960’s. In this time there were further extensions to the house including the swimming pool and tennis courts, in addition to new stable buildings, a ménage, multiple outbuildings and two additional cottages. 6 BILL HILL PARK, TWYFORD ROAD, WOKINGHAM, RG40 5QT Description & Accommodation The built footprint of the site is concentrated within the north east corner and focussed around the three-storey Georgian house, which overlooks extensive landscaped gardens at the south and west of the site. The east wing and pool block adjoin a courtyard also fronted by the Coach House, a former stable block converted to offices with parking, and two semi-detached cottages. To the north of the courtyard lies a stables and ménage, in addition to five single-storey outbuildings. In the north east corner of the site, there are two 1960’s semi-detached cottages with gardens. A further cottage known as the Lodge is situated on the eastern edge of the site. The main vehicular access is from the eastern boundary via Twyford Road (A321). The access leads west into the site, past the courtyard and main house, before looping back east through woodland to the second entrance to the main site.

The site lies within the jurisdiction of Wokingham Borough Council. The Georgian house and cottages fall within class C3 (residential). The Coach House offices fall within Class E (Commercial, Business and Service) with changes of use granted in 1990 and 1998, whilst the outbuildings, ménage and stables accommodate a mixture of uses. The site is located outside of the green belt and offers significant redevelopment potential focussed around the existing brownfield footprint. Its affluent location and period setting lend the site to care, residential or educational uses amongst others, subject to obtaining necessary planning consents. Care or residential-led schemes could utilise the main house and cottages as residential accommodation, or the house could be converted to provide communal facilities, alongside the tennis court and swimming pool. Further accommodation could be created through conversion of the Coach House and the outbuildings under various permitted development rights or through the creation of new buildings to enhance the existing footprint. The estate could also be operated as a comprehensive educational facility comprising a mix of teaching space, living accommodation, offices, playing fields and sports/ recreational facilities. As above there is potential for enhancing or converting many of the existing buildings on site to suit requirements (subject to planning). There are two Grade II Listed buildings (main House, coach house) and three structures (entrance gates, garden pavilion and memorial stone). The grounds have been designated as a locally important area of open space and are therefore a non- designated heritage asset. The site also benefits from wider, long-term development potential through promotion of the site as part of other interests in the surrounding area. A number of other landowners and promoters are currently promoting surrounding land. Wokingham Borough Council has considered the site as part of the emerging local plan which is estimated to be adopted in Winter 2021. A detailed planning summary can be accessed via the data room. 8 BILL HILL PARK, TWYFORD ROAD, WOKINGHAM, RG40 5QT Lotting Offers are invited for the entire site, individual lots, or a combination of lots. An indicative lotting plan can be found in the data room. Method of Sale Offers are invited on a freehold basis via informal tender on both an unconditional and conditional (subject to planning) basis, or equally a development agreement, through either a promotion or option agreement.

Since ONR responded to the previous draft Local Plan Update consultation on 21 January 2019 (see email below) the proposed development locations included in the draft local plan have significantly changed. Additionally, the Detailed Emergency Planning Zone (DEPZ) for the AWE Burghfield site has been re-determined by West Berkshire District Council under the Radiation (Emergency Preparedness and Public Information) Regulations (REPPIR) 2019 resulting in a larger DEPZ. ONR’s current position remains that we would be likely to object to: • developments within the DEPZ, unless the West Berkshire District Council emergency planner provides adequate assurance to ONR that any adverse impact on the operability and viability of the off-site emergency plan could be mitigated. • large scale developments within the circular 5km Outer Consultation Zone (OCZ), which extends beyond the DEPZ from grid reference SU684680, unless the West Berkshire District Council emergency planner provides adequate assurance to ONR that any adverse impact on the operability and viability of the off-site emergency plan could be mitigated. ONR has previously responded regarding the two development locations below which are included in both the 2018/19 Local Plan Update consultation and the 2020 Local Plan Update consultation: 1.

Summary of responses: Objections – 49, Support – 2, Comment – 0, Mixed Response – 0 . 1) Resident, Support I believe this should solve the issues raised by the Earley Christian fellowship, while still meeting the needs of people who actually live in the area. 2) Resident, Support Wokingham Road is used as an free overflow car park for surounding streets, a park and ride for people who work and shop in Reading town centre, and a taxi rank for priviate minicab drivers. I would like to these restrictions implemented. 3) Earley Christian I am concerned about the impact on Earley Christian Fellowship and object to the proposed Wokingham Road Fellowship, 16X Pay & Display for the following reasons: Objections, submitted 1 The timing of the proposal is premature separately I understand that the Council is concerned that Wokingham Road may become a parking-lot for those wishing to avoid buying a permit, when Area 2 of the East Reading Residents' Parking Scheme (the St Peter's Road area) goes live. This is a genuine concern, as it could impinge upon availability of parking spaces for those attending services and other activities at ECF. This, however, has NOT been the case with the implementation of the Residents’ Permit scheme in Area 1 (roads adjacent to Wokingham Road) which has been in operation since 16 September 2019, and which has had very little impact on the parking situation on Wokingham Road.
