" Abbey Gardens is a high quality conversion of an historic building by Bewley Homes. The original building has a great history as the famous Douai Abbey School. The whole development has been sympathetically designed and incorporates stunning communal gardens which have been designed by the renowned architect, Robert Adam. Number 8 Abbey Gardens is a very interesting and individual 2 bedroom upper floor apartment. A staircase from the main communal entrance hall with stone bannisters gives access to the apartment with the entrance hall, which benefits from a good sized cloakroom with WC, leading to a spectacular sitting room which is light and airy, having windows on both sides, and vaulted to the ceiling giving the feeling of being a stylish 'loft apartment'. The kitchen is designed to a high specification with an extensive range of matching wall and base units, granite work surfaces, and fully integrated appliances. Both double bedrooms benefit from en suite facilites, and there is excellent storage throughout.

Situation
The property is located approximately half-way between the thriving commercial centres of Newbury and Reading, both providing a good range of shopping, leisure and night-life. The village of Woolhampton has several pubs, local shops, tennis club, cricket club and a main line railway link to London Paddington. Excellent schools can also be found nearby and include Elstree, Bradfield College, Padworth College, Downe House, Cheam, Marlston and Brockhurst and Kennet.

Outside
There is a secure underground parking space in addition to an allocated outside parking space close to the entrance to Number 8. There are beautiful and well maintained grounds on the development and on the opposite side of the road there is a cricket pitch and tennis court with membership available. On site is a Concierge/Estate Manager who supervises the maintenance of the buildings and the grounds and also offers a more personal role.
