4 bed bungalow for sale

Twinley Lane, Cole Henley, Whitchurch, Hampshire RG28

A rare countryside conversion opportunity in the most majestic setting.

Description
Steeped in heritage and held within the same family for over a century, La Bresse presents an exceptional opportunity to create a unique rural home in a truly idyllic setting.

In 2005, planning permission was granted for the three out buildings and a four bedroom house to replace the bungalow, on the same footprint as the bungalow. This is still in place and was amended in 2025 to locate the house further back from the property. In September 2024, further planning consent was secured for the conversion of the principal barn into a single residential dwelling and divide the property into two plots so it could be sold as two separate properties. Much of the groundwork has already been completed, with plumbing and electrics installed, offering an excellent head start for those wishing to complete the transformation.

The barn and its associated buildings provide a rare chance to craft a bespoke home in a peaceful countryside location. Alongside the main barn, the property includes two detached outbuildings, ideal for use as a summer house, storage, workshops, garaging, and more. A generous cellar adds further versatility.

Beautiful grounds & far reaching views.

Set within approximately 2.3 acres, the gardens and grounds are a standout feature. Expansive, beautifully maintained lawns sweep around the property, framed by mature specimen trees, shrubs, and mixed borders. The site enjoys breath taking rural views in every direction, offering a sense of space, tranquillity, and connection to the surrounding landscape.
With practical access and ample parking, La Bresse benefits from its own private driveway access from Twinley Lane, along with plentiful off street parking -ideal for residents and visitors alike.
