Retaining much of its original charm, The Hatchgate boasts attractive double-fronted red brick elevations and an abundance of character features, including high ceilings, original fireplaces and generous proportions throughout. Parts of the property are currently being refurbished, enhancing its period appeal while providing a blank canvas for a purchaser to complete to their own specification. The accommodation is currently arranged as two spacious maisonettes and two apartments, each offering independent living with flexible layouts suited to a variety of uses. The principal maisonette occupies much of the original building and retains the grand entrance hall, leading to elegant reception rooms with feature cast iron fireplaces, a bay-fronted family room, dining room and principal bedroom with en suite. A spiral staircase descends to a generous kitchen and dining room with flagstone flooring, alongside an additional shower room and separate external access. The ground floor also incorporates a well-proportioned one-bedroom apartment with its own entrance, open-plan living space, modern kitchen, double bedroom and contemporary bathroom. To the first floor, accessed via an external staircase, are two further properties. A rear apartment offers a fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms and a family bathroom, while the front maisonette enjoys a spacious sitting room with fireplace, fitted kitchen, home office or optional additional bedroom, shower room and a staircase rising to a vaulted second floor featuring a further double bedroom and stylish bathroom. Whether retained in its current format as four individual dwellings, providing an attractive income-generating investment, or reimagined as a magnificent single residence, The Hatchgate offers remarkable flexibility and enormous potential. Its generous footprint, wealth of original features and adaptable layout create an opportunity rarely available in such a desirable village setting. Externally, the property enjoys excellent kerb appeal with ample off-road parking to the front and side. Twin brick pillars and wrought iron gates open onto a private driveway leading to further parking, a detached garage and adjoining garden store. The mature gardens wrap around the side and rear of the property, predominantly laid to lawn with a paved terrace providing an ideal space for outdoor entertaining, all enclosed by established trees for a high degree of privacy. Positioned on the edge of the Chiltern Hills National Landscape, Whitchurch Hill is a charming hilltop village with a traditional village green, parish church and public house. At the foot of the hill, the picturesque riverside villages of Whitchurch-on-Thames and Pangbourne offer an excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities, while nearby Reading provides extensive shopping, leisure and business facilities. The surrounding countryside offers exceptional opportunities for walking, cycling and riding, with a wealth of sporting and recreational facilities close by, including tennis courts, football pitches, bowling club and Bradfield College's renowned members' facilities. Communications are excellent, with easy access to the M4, A34 and wider motorway network. Pangbourne railway station, approximately 1.7 miles away, provides direct services to London Paddington in around 45 minutes, making the property well suited for both commuters and those seeking an accessible country lifestyle.
