Recreational facilities include Castle Royle Golf Club and Fitness Centre, boating on the Thames nearby at Wargrave and other regional centres, and fine walking and riding in the Berkshire and South Oxfordshire countryside.

Description The Old House is a very fine classic, late eighteenth century, Grade II Listed house with an elegance expected of this vintage. It has handsome red brick elevations and there are some gracious and elegant reception rooms with fine architectural detail including dentilled cornicing, herringbone woodblock floors, handsome bay windows, with splendid open fireplaces in all the principal reception rooms. From the inner hall there is a staircase down to the extensive temperature controlled wine cellars. The atmospheric drawing room has oak panelled walls, an open fireplace with marble slips and carved surround, and double doors to the garden. The study features a herringbone woodblock floor with glazed shelves, display cabinets and fine cornicing. The library/cinema room to the rear of the house enjoys panelled walls, handsome book shelves and further glazed cabinets. In between there is a family room with fireplace and wood burner, and tiled floor with garden access. The fully fitted kitchen and breakfast room sit side by side, the kitchen having oak units and granite tops, Miele 5-ring gas hob and extractor above, Miele dishwasher, double stainless steel sink unit and tiled floor, open to the kitchen/breakfast room. The formal dining room is also located conveniently next to the kitchen. The rear hall has access to the South Wing and first floor bedroom accommodation and beside it is a laundry cupboard off the rear staircase. There is a separate utility room and WC. The grace and elegance continues on the first floor with some beautiful bedrooms including a master bedroom suite with fully fitted en suite dressing room and bathroom, including twin wash basins and some fine green marble. There are 2 handsome additional bedrooms on the first floor and, unusually, access to a lovely Marston & Langinger conservatory situated on a half landing, discreetly positioned between the South Wing and the main house. The second floor in the main house comprises 2 large bedrooms and a bathroom, one of which could potentially be split to provide a 3rd bedroom on the second floor if required. The “South Wing” accommodation on the first floor provides 2 bedrooms and a bathroom (alternatively could be used as 1 bedroom suite) and on the other side, 2 smaller bedrooms with a storage room (formerly a shower room). Outside The sweeping drive alights at a wide parking and turning area in front of the house with access around the side to the double garage with workshop/studio above and wine store to one side. The extensive kitchen garden has numerous sheds and outbuildings with magnificent greenhouses and organised beds with garden irrigation system, all enclosed within picket fencing. Additional outbuildings include temperature controlled wine cellarage. The heated swimming pool and hard tennis court are situated close to one another in a discreet part of the garden. The swimming pool has a pool house and WC, which is enclosed within picket fencing. There is a delightful children’s playground with a splendid tree house, swings and a climbing frame. There is also a large terrace adjacent to the drawing room, study, family room and library for entertaining. Gardens The gardens of The Old House are a magnificent feature of the property. Approached along a long sweeping tarmacadam drive, you are immediately aware of some magnificent and splendid mature trees including cedar, horse chestnut, catalpa and a number of other fine specimens. Wide sweeping areas of lawn are interspersed by beautiful mature herbaceous borders, and halfway down the drive on the left is a fine circular rose border, beyond which through mature beech hedging lie the principal lawns enjoyed by the house. There is a high grade borehole with potable water and a self- watering system for ease of maintenance. The gardens have been maintained to a high standard by the current owners. There is a security lighting system and floodlighting to trees.
