A substantial Edwardian family home in a highly convenient location set on a plot of approximately one third of an acre. The property offers spacious, flexible accommodation including an entrance hall, lounge with open fireplace, family room, kitchen/dining room, conservatory, cloakroom and ANNEXE with a separate entrance hall, lounge, double bedroom and wet room. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms and a large modern 4 pc bathroom. On the top floor are two further double bedrooms and a large, un-converted attic. The property offers huge potential for a variety of uses, including commercial, with excellent frontage providing off road parking for a significant number of vehicles as well as a large double garage, covered carport for a camper van/caravan and large mature rear garden with outbuildings. Properties with this degree of flexibility and potential rarely come to the market in such a convenient location so an early viewing is essential.
The property is located in a prominent position approximately one mile from the University campus, as well as being well within the Maiden Erlegh Secondary school catchment. It is also within the catchment of Kendrick and Reading schools, and not far from popular private schools.
There are local shops within 400 yards with more extensive facilities at Woodley town centre and the Asda complex in Lower Earley.
Bus services run into the Reading town centre, where the main line railway station offers services to Paddington, on the Elizabeth line, and services to Waterloo running through the nearby Earley Railway Station.
The M4 motorway can be accessed either at Junction 11, where there is also the A33 south to Basingstoke, as well as Green Park and its new railway station; or at Junction 10 where London then lies approximately 40 miles away and Heathrow Airport approximately 30 miles away.
