The gardens and grounds are quite stunning, providing a landscaped park-like setting, with great privacy and seclusion, and are laid mainly to lawn, with an extensive variety of trees, shrubs, hedging, and a wildflower meadow, providing diversity throughout the seasons. The gardens engage fully with the expansive decked terrace and balconied veranda that wraps around the property, and onto which all reception rooms and the principal bedroom open.LocationCheckendon Hill House is located in the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, (the UK’s third largest, after the Cotswolds and North Pennines). It is named from Checkendon Hill, the ancient name for the land it occupies, nestled below Checkendon Wood. It was designed by Richard Cutler, an Award-Winning architect, based in Wallingford, who specializes in modern ‘Arts & Crafts’. The house is on a single-track lane, in a deeply rural location. In the garden are regularly seen deer, foxes, badgers, with red kites and buzzards circling overhead, and owls audible in the night and early morning. The lower half of the garden is largely lawn, with many mature trees. The upper half has never been cultivated, and has been kept so, as a wildflower and nature garden. In summer it is full of a succession of native wildflowers, including orchids, and teems with butterflies and bees.The ridge above Checkendon Hill House is part of National Trust land, ‘The Holies’, a conservation area for downland species. It offers extensive views over the Thames valley. There are numerous footpaths and bridleways, and the Ridgeway passes just below The Holies. The downs offer truly exceptional walking, riding and cycling opportunities. The hamlet of Stichens Green, of which Checkendon Hill House is on the fringe, is a friendly collection of about half a dozen homes. Up on the downs, the village of Aldworth (2.5 miles) is home to the local pub, the tiny Bell Inn, a true treasure. The site of a public house for approximately 1,000 years and run by the same family for the last 200+ years, The Bell Inn has won accolades as ‘Best Unspoiled Pub of the Year’ and camra ‘Pub of the Year’. Streatley Golf Club lies just beyond Checkendon Wood.Belying its peaceful and secluded location, Checkendon Hill House is well served with transport links. Junction 12 of the M4 is 15 minutes drive. Pangbourne and Goring-on-Thames stations offer good train services to London (Paddington 44 minutes) and Oxford, and the Elizabeth Line now further reduces times to the City and Canary Wharf. Heathrow T5 is approx. 45 minutes.Local Waitrose stores are at Wallingford and Caversham (both approx. 20 minutes), with a Sainsbury’s and Ikea at M4 J12, (15 minutes). Award-winning local specialist food stores include the butcher (Greens), cheese shop (Cheese etc) and organic shop (Garlands) all in Pangbourne. Locally sourced game is found at Vicars Game, Yattendon, and local craft breweries produce beer (West Berkshire Brewery) and cider (Tutts Clump).In addition to having well revered local state primary and secondary schooling, the area is also extremely well served by an excellent range of private schooling, of particular note; Cranford House School, The Oratory Preparatory School, Moulsford Preparatory School, St Andrews Preparatory School, The Oratory School, Pangbourne College, 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.
