SWANWOOD Highmoor ~ Oxfordshire
INTRODUCTION & SITUATION The Swanwood Estate provides an
extremely rare opportunity to acquire a tranquil and private site
with planning permission for a stunning
21,000 sq ft Arts & Crafts style house with excellent leisure
facilities. The proposed design offers spacious open plan, modern
living and is
meticulously positioned to take advantage of the views beyond
Swanwood. The land predominately consists of formal gardens,
woodland all
set within 42.35 acres acres of land.
Whilst this is an exceptional design it is quite possible that
other designs, whether they be classical or modern, will be more
appealing to a
buyer. It is understood this will be entirely possible within the
consented footprint and volume (subject to any necessary consents).
On this
double page is a completely different more ‘georgianesque’
approach, which fits within the consented design.
Swanwood is situated on the edge of the pretty village of
Nettlebed, which boasts several antique shops, a local store/post
office and the well
regarded White Hart Hotel and Restaurant. Positioned south of the
village, it lies north of the charming hamlet of Highmoor with its
church,
village hall and pub. More extensive shopping and recreational
facilities can be found in the nearby historic riverside town of
Henley-on-Thames,
offering a fine variety of shops, public houses and restaurants as
well as a Waitrose and a hospital. The town of Reading also offers
further
shops and amenities, together with a fast rail service to London
Paddington (from 27 minutes). The M4 junction 8/9 lies within easy
reach and
provides access to Heathrow and the national motorway network. The
surrounding countryside offers extensive walking and riding through
a
well-linked network of public footpaths and bridleways.
SCHOOLS There is a selection of excellent schools nearby, such as
Rupert House and St
Mary’s in Henley, Leighton Park, Queen Anne’s at Reading, the
Oratory School,
Eton, Bradfield, Pangbourne, Shiplake, Papplewick Prep School,
Moulsford
Prep School, Cranford House, Radley, Ludgrove, Wellington College,
Wycombe
Abbey, St George’s and Heathfield at Ascot.

SPORTING AND RECREATION There is an abundance of leisure facilities
available locally including; rowing on the Thames and a number of
fine local golf courses at
Badgemore Park, Henley, Temple and Huntercombe. Racing may be
enjoyed at Ascot, Windsor and Newbury and the Guards Polo Club
and
the Royal Berkshire Polo Club are both within striking
distance.
An example of what is potentially achievable within the current
planning permission internal volume. Please note: Planning
permission has not been granted for this neo classical
design.
PROPOSED ACCOMMODATION
54
The proposed main house will provide 21,000 sq ft of
accommodation.
The new design scheme has been created to sit within the historic
and
typology planning guidance.
An overall property and landscape strategy has been prepared
by
chartered architects The Anderson Orr Partnership, with an aim to
respect
the nature of the site. Energy My Way, have composed a report to
assess
how to advance the energy efficiency of the proposed house.
The intention is to replace the current house on the existing site
and rotate
the dwelling by 30 degrees. The new house has been carefully
planned so that it is positioned to take advantage of the
three
vistas in the woodland.
planned living on the ground floor with a large kitchen/
breakfast and family room. There will be four further rooms
on
this floor including two large reception rooms to the south
and
west providing the entertainment spaces, as well as a garden
room to the south and a billiard room to the north.
On the first floor, four bedroom suites will be accessed off
the landing all benefiting from separate dressing rooms and
en suite bathrooms. In addition there will be a reading room
adjacent to the large landing.
On the second floor will be three further bedroom suites with
far reaching views.
room and cinema room.
The proposed ancillary buildings (garage and swimming pool) are
designed as
standalone structures and will not be connected to the
accommodation within
the main dwelling. The tennis court and pavilion have also been
redesigned
on their current site, with a grand pavilion with all necessary
services.
The basement and indoor swimming pool are designed to utilise
the
sloping topography of the site.
