Plastow Green lies within the south-eastern lowlands of the County of Hampshire. Rexford House, as the name suggests, reflects the royal associations with this beautiful landscape and an ancient corridor that ran from London, through Berkshire and into Hampshire, once blanketed in forest and for centuries the playground of Kings.

Within a web of sunken lanes and byways, stately hedgerows and a sweeping landscape of field, meadow and noble hamlets, Rexford commands a quiet yet magnificent spot between the lowland chalk and folding uplands to the south.

The surrounding countryside is of immense historical importance and boasts the earliest settlements in England’s pre-history. It was the site of Alfred the Great’s campaign against the Danes towards the close of the 9th century and more recently, a stage for many battles during the English Civil War. Towards the end of the 17th century at the Battle of Reading, forces loyal to William of Orange defeated those of James II of England, in what became known as the Glorious Revolution.

In more recent times, the Hampshire countryside has become a haven of peace and the setting for some of our most treasured country estates and rural hamlets. Reading and Newbury, close by in the Royal County of Berkshire once the sites of royal conflict, are now prosperous hubs within a culturally dynamic region that still retains its royal connections.

Rexford epitomises the best in an English architectural style that translated Italian Palladian geometry into its most elegant and sophisticated paradigm. The essence of this style is in its ability to sit so comfortably within the surrounding countryside while soaking up the natural light within its palatial rooms. What distinguishes this style as rendered by Sherbourne Developments is the comfort, luxury and state-of-the-art technology that goes into the design, construction and appointment of every one of its magnificent homes.
