LOCATION
Located just to the West of Reading is the village of Pangbourne on
Thames which lies on a bend of the River where the River Pang
joins,? and is connected by an ancient Toll Bridge to the village
of Whitchurch in Oxfordshire nestling? under the Chilterns
Escarpment. The surrounding countryside of the Berkshire Downlands
and Chiltern Hills is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural
Beauty .
The stretch of river from Pangbourne upstream to Streatley, is
forever associated with the well known author Kenneth Graham and
his book The Wind in the Willows which he wrote when living in the
village at Church Cottage just west of the churchyard. An area of
riverside land known as Pangbourne Meadow, lying just to the east
of the Whitchurch Toll Bridge, was purchased by the Parish in the
1930s. Subsequently an additional portion was acquired by the
National Trust and all of this area is now controlled by the Parish
Council and available for the public to use for fishing, boating
and leisure purposes.
Pangbourne has an excellent range of local amenities, shops and
facilities, including a Co Op supermarket, WH Smith, Post Office,
hardware store, high class Butcher, specialist Cheese shop,
Library, an impressive Health Centre, Dentist, Opticians, together
with Traditional Inns, Restaurants and Hotels including The
Elephant formerly The Copper Inn. There is also a mainline station
providing fast commuter services to Reading 8 minutes and up to
Paddington 25 minutes .
The area is also extremely well served by an excellent range of
state and private schooling which includes not only the village
Primary School, but also Pangbourne College, Cranford House School,
The Oratory Preparatory School, Moulsford Preparatory School, St
Andrews Preparatory School, The Oratory School, Brockhurst &
Marlston House, Downe House, Rupert House School, Shiplake College,
The Abbey School, Bradfield College, The Manor Preparatory School,
Abingdon School, Abingdon Preparatory School, Radley College, and
St Helen & St Katharine.
Crossrail Elizabeth Line services have commenced from Reading,
with the full service scheduled to commence shortly, which together
with the completed electrification of the line has significantly
improved travelling times to East and West destinations.
PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
The White House is a most delightful and impressive period
residence, which is privately situated close to the centre of the
beautiful riverside village of Pangbourne, just a short walk to the
village primary school, River Thames, village shops and
restaurants, and mainline railway station, which provides direct
access to London in under the hour.
Having whitened elevations under a multi pitched and gabled tile
roof, externally the property displays proudly its architectural
roots, whilst in more recent years, it has been sympathetically
extended and modernised, successfully blending in the old and new
elements, whilst retaining period ambience with a modern flair.
This has created a most stunningly characterful yet contemporary
home which extends to approximately 3,390 Sq Ft, which affords an
inspired offering of both traditional and modern living, providing
5 bedrooms, a family bathroom, 2 further shower rooms, 7 reception
rooms, including a grand galleried reception hall, and a detached
double garage with tool store, encapsulating its stunning mature
gardens and grounds and private surroundings.
A simply wonderful opportunity afforded, and quite rare indeed
to the open market, early viewing of The White House is highly
recommended.

quintessential English village, The White House is most privately
situated part the way up Bere Court Road, with far reaching views
across the gardens and over the valley on the opposing side of The
River Thames.

with the double garage off to one side. The front garden is well
planted with clipped hedging and borders containing a variety of
interesting plants and shrubs together with a number of specimen
trees, providing a sheltered aspect and leads up to the covered
front porch.
Part walled formal gardens with spacious lawned areas wrap their
way around the side and rear of the house, with simply wonderful
beautifully colourful planting providing a haven to enjoy
throughout the day and seasons. Carefully designed and landscaped
areas of the formal gardens afford their own enjoyment, whilst
collectively providing a most stunning backdrop from the house
itself, and with interconnecting stone laid areas with a central
pond and walled pergola, connecting the house with the vegetable
garden and orchard
Simply stunning, and beautifully mature and well cared for, the
gardens themselves are only enhanced by the peaceful and sheltered
setting, and the attractive period attributes of The White House,
and in all, extend to approximately 0.41 of an acre.
