Waterloo Road, Wokingham

A hidden gem on the edge of Wokingham town, and tucked away in a peaceful enclave along Waterloo Road.

This unique home offers easy parking, large secluded garden & lovely green views (...yet is just a gentle walk to everything Wokingham town has to offer).

Birch Corner is an exceptional find for anyone looking for versatile living, peaceful privacy, and excellent parking. The chalet bungalow design gives plenty of options for evolving family needs - with four-five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and good room-sizes. Upstairs has two large double bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, and no compromise on storage space (including extensive eaves storage 'room'). The downstairs has an easy flow, with welcoming entrance hall, large living room and an adjoining study. The downstairs bathroom has been modified as a wet-room with level access, and the three interchangeable ground floor bedrooms serve as downstairs bedrooms or versatile reception space.

The kitchen / breakfast room overlooks the rear garden, and has been designed with space for a small table and chairs by the French doors - quiet coffee whilst overlooking the garden makes a perfect way to start the day. Buyers looking for a large open-plan kitchen, however, will find the scope to extend or re-model this space quite compelling.

The living room enjoys plenty of natural light from its large window, and has an open fireplace for cosy evenings, With its tucked-away positioning, this room has plenty of privacy and a pleasant outlook over the front lawn area. Double-doors opening to a snug / study create an ideal place for working from home or school studies.

On a practical level, there's a sensibly-sized utility room with sink, plenty of hallway storage, and accessible eaves storage space.

Ultrafast Broadband availability - Download speeds up to 1000Mbps - Upload speeds up to 1000Mbps.

Ideally-located for some of Wokingham's most sought-after schools means you can leave the car at home - St Crispins Secondary, Floreat Montague Park Primary, and St Teresa's Catholic Academy are all a 12 or 13 minute walk away. Montague Park (accessed through Clay Lane), has dog-walking spaces and a modern Co-op. There's also the King George V playing fields nearby, and bus routes running to Wokingham, Reading & Bracknell (from London Road).

A Few Words from Quarters

"Sitting on the edge of Wokingham town centre, the 20 minute walk to the vibrant town promises the new owners an easy lifestyle. With its choice of pubs, restaurants and eateries, getting home after a night out is super-easy. Wokingham also has a lively market with farm produce and street food, a modern library, leisure centre (including gym, bowling, and pool) coffee shops and train station.

Locally, there's a parade of shops around the corner on Rances Lane - with its butchers, convenience store, and a highly popular fish & chip shop. There's also family dining at The Foundry Bell, Oakingham Belle, & Three Frogs Pubs

With a triple-length garage, easy parking, and a secluded garden, this home provides over 2,200 square foot of well-balanced space. Given its plot size and internal space, we feel certain that buyers will love the opportunity to create their own forever home in this idyllic location.

As Waterloo Road is now closed to through-traffic and, with its set-back position from the road, Birch Corner is a wonderfully quiet retreat. We particularly love the rear garden which enjoys complete privacy, and there's a treat in store with the wonderful view from the upstairs bedrooms!

Please get in touch with Nick or Teresa at Quarters Estate Agents, Wokingham, for more information or to discuss viewing arrangements - we're looking forward to showing you around!"
