Stonehouse, Lower Basildon, Reading, Berkshire, RG8

A modern and spacious 3 storey 4 bedroom ‘End of Terrace Mews Cottage’ built to a very high standard in 2006 by Thomas Homes overlooking the old brick & flint walls once belonging to Basildon Park.

5 Stonehouse
Built by Thomas Homes in 2006, this small development of only 12 houses is situated in the popular village of Lower Basildon. Number 5 is a 4-bedroom townhouse with accommodation arranged over 3 floors. From the ground floor the clever accommodation steps up to the bedrooms on the first floor and then downstairs to the kitchen which goes straight out to the garden.
On the first floor there are 3 bedrooms, with one en suite and a family bathroom. The ground floor has an additional bedroom, cloak room and sitting room which overlooks the rear garden, there is also a good sized front garden which is laid to lawn and also has the potential to create a new driveway subject to planning. On the lower ground floor there is a well-appointed kitchen which opens onto the garden, a separate utility room with WC and family room.

Outside
Attractively approached through a timber picket fence to the front boundary, a stone flagged pathway leads up to the covered front porch, flanked on two sides by the lawned garden, with mature planting, shrubs, and trees providing a pleasant and colourful aspect.
The garden at the rear of the property enjoys a sheltered and private aspect, where immediately adjoining the house is a paved terrace perfect for ‘Al Fresco’ dining. Beyond the paved terrace the main rear garden is conveniently laid to lawn whilst attractively flanked by timber fencing and a further stone flagged pathway leading to both the timber shed in the bottom corner of the garden, and also tall legged and braced timber gate which affords pedestrian access out to the garaging / parking area.

A wide splayed access leads down to the garaging and parking area for the residents of Stonehouse. Initially there are designated parking bays on the left-hand side, then located to the right there is an attractive open terraced garage / car port separated in to private bays with additional parking to the front. The open garage / car port and parking bay belonging to No 5 Stonehouse is noted as being the last but one on the end.
