Set in a country lane with surrounding farmland, this is an ideal find for those wanting to escape from stress and urban living. The old farm buildings of James Farm were carefully converted in recent years, and now offer a peaceful setting with quirky and unique charm.

Known as Rupert's Barn, this spacious home overlooks its own green space of around 1.6 acres, and is beautifully proportioned to meet the needs of most life-stages. It's also fully equipped for comfort throughout the changing seasons (and has a B energy performance rating).

In the summer, the living room French doors open to the garden (over a stream), and there's a lovely Juliet balcony in one of the bedrooms.

Outside, there are two parking bays alongside the property, with additional parking within the James Farm community.


A Few Words from Quarters
\"As practical as it is pretty, Rupert's Barn may look 'cottagey' but internally it has more living space than the average four bedroom home. We think this will appeal to anyone who's looking for low-maintenance and who wants to breathe the country air.

Although it's certainly rural, James Farm is part of a small community, and the nearby Old Bell pub is a healthy walk away. The nearest train station is Mortimer (just under two miles) and the newly built Reading Green Park Station is just over two miles away.

The new owners can look forward to living 'in the sticks' but easily reach the M4 by car in around 5 minutes. Both Basingstoke and Reading are within easy reach too.

We know this home is pretty special, so we're looking forward to viewings. Please get in touch with Nick or Teresa of Quarters Estate Agents Wokingham for more details or to book your 'tour'!\"
