Description

PARKERS PRESTIGE - Favourably positioned on a leafy country lane, this beautifully presented 5-bedroom detached family home offers versatile accommodation with annex and business potential.


Enjoying the best of both worlds, the property provides easy access to miles of countryside and woodland walks. The village of Theale is just a 7-minute drive away, offering direct train services to London Paddington. Pangbourne is 13 minutes away, with convenient access to Newbury, Reading, and Junction 12 of the M4. The property falls within the catchment area of highly regarded schools, including the Willink Secondary School.

Built in the 1970s, the home has been under the current ownership for the past 8 years, during which it has been lovingly improved, updated, and extended.

Offering flexible accommodation over two floors, the spacious and light-filled rooms are perfectly suited to modern family living.

The ground floor features a grand entrance hall with vaulted ceilings, providing access to all principal rooms. The large kitchen-diner includes an adjoining utility room with garden views and access. The impressive sitting room is ideal for family gatherings. Also on the ground floor is the master bedroom with en-suite facilities.

A self-contained annex includes its own kitchen, sitting room, and a double bedroom with en-suite bathroom, offering excellent accommodation for guests or potential rental income. There has previously been an external door that could be reinstated, which could be useful for those who might want to operate a home business.

Upstairs, a spacious landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Outside, the private south-facing garden is low maintenance and includes a timber building. Side access leads to the front of the property, where a shingled driveway accommodates multiple vehicles. Additional features include an oak-framed carport and electric vehicle charging provisions.

This property represents a fantastic opportunity to acquire a substantial family home in this sought-after village.
