Old Cole Farm, Whitchurch, RG28 7QD

Picture waking up to idyllic countryside views, then being in the centre of London in a little less than an hour.

Old Cole Farm gives you commuting convenience from the pretty little rural hamlet of Cole Henley. There are over 20 trains a day from Whitchurch to Waterloo, the fastest taking just under an hour.

The A34 is a short drive away if you'd rather hit the road. Whitchurch has the shops, cafés and pubs you'll need for everyday life, plus Whitchurch and Overton primary schools.

Testbourne Community School in Micheldever and Cheam and Farleigh School are also nearby. Watership Down is close enough for a bracing weekend walk.

The house itself dates back to the early 18th century and is made from red brick and flint, with a sitting room and dining room either side of the hall.

The sitting room has an open fireplace, exposed beams and views over the garden. It's made for slow Sunday evenings. The dining room has a terracotta tiled floor, exposed timbers and brick detailing.

It's easy to picture a long lunch here with friends and family.

The family kitchen stretches from front to back and ticks all the traditional country kitchen boxes, with solid wood worktops, a farmhouse sink and an Everhot range cooker.

And of course there are views over the garden while you cook. A quiet study on the ground floor gives you somewhere to work when the office is a laptop away. There's also a handy downstairs w.c.

Upstairs, the two double bedrooms both look out over the neat front lawn and the open fields beyond. The third bedroom is a single, which works well as a guest room, nursery or another office space.

The bathroom is stylish and modern, with a shower over the bath. Outside, a gravel driveway provides plenty of parking.

The front lawn is dotted with mature trees and shrubs and enclosed by a brick and flint wall, and there's a paved terrace with more manicured lawns and a summerhouse.

In all, the plot covers 0.29 acres, and it feels peaceful and private - perfect for lazy weekends after a busy week.

If you want to enjoy beautiful open field views from every window and fast trains to Waterloo only three minutes away, Old Cole Farm could deliver both the quiet countryside life and the city career.
