Kingfisher Grove, Reading, RG7

A beautifully presented and exceptionally spacious four-bedroom detached family home, quietly tucked away in a sought-after no-through-traffic cul-de-sac in Three Mile Cross. The property combines peaceful residential living with outstanding commuter access, superb local amenities, and remarkable schooling options at every level.

Ground Floor

The welcoming entrance hall sets the tone immediately — generous, well-considered, and practical. A clever under-stairs cupboard provides a cloakroom and shoe storage area from day one. A downstairs WC completes the entrance level.

The kitchen and dining room is the standout space on the ground floor — a stunning dual-aspect room comprehensively refitted to an exceptional standard. Bespoke cabinetry lines the walls, complemented by a full suite of integrated appliances including an integrated washing machine, dishwasher, double oven, and modern induction hob. The original gas line is retained beneath the hob, offering the flexibility to revert to gas cooking if preferred. Flooded with natural light from windows on two sides, this is a kitchen that genuinely impresses.

The dual-aspect reception room spans the full width of the property. A magnificent bespoke floor-to-ceiling fitted joinery unit — a genuine statement piece — combines open display shelving with generous closed storage below. An electric fireplace provides a stylish focal point, with the original gas line retained for conversion if preferred. French doors open directly onto the landscaped rear garden.

First Floor

The exceptionally spacious first-floor landing immediately impresses — a real sense of arrival that connects all rooms with ease. Every bedroom is fitted with built-in wardrobes, making this a home where storage is genuinely never a concern.

The principal bedroom is a truly generous double, comfortably accommodating a super-king with room to spare, and enjoys beautiful garden views. A modern en-suite shower room serves this room exclusively. Bedroom two is a substantial double, well-proportioned and bright. Bedroom three accommodates a double bed comfortably. Bedroom four is currently fitted with bespoke built-in desk furniture — a ready-made home office that can be retained by negotiation, or used as a single bedroom.

The contemporary family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. The loft is fully boarded with fitted ladder access — exceptional additional storage rarely found at this price point.

Heating, Hot Water & Utilities

A modern condensing system boiler paired with a dedicated hot water cylinder delivers simultaneous hot water to multiple taps and showers without pressure drop — a significant practical advantage over a standard combi boiler, particularly for a busy family with three bathrooms. A water softener and water purifier are also installed, ensuring premium water quality throughout. The induction hob and electric fireplace both retain their original gas lines, convertible to gas at the buyer's preference.

Outside

The rear garden has been beautifully redesigned into a striking low-maintenance landscaped space. A circular grass feature sits within a generous paved patio, while mature trees provide outstanding privacy and an established, lush backdrop. Two outbuildings add exceptional flexibility: the garden studio/store has power and shelving already fitted — ready immediately as a garden office, hobby room, or workshop. A second outbuilding provides excellent capacity for tools, bikes, and general storage.

To the front, a generous driveway accommodates three vehicles with an electric garage door providing convenient access to the garage. A children's play area/ playground sits approximately 100 metres from the property- added advantage for young families.

The Location

Kingfisher Grove is a quiet, established cul-de-sac with no through traffic — safe, peaceful, and genuinely community-spirited. The community atmosphere here is warm and neighbourly, the kind of street where people know each other and children play outside safely.

For commuters, this location offers an exceptional combination of options. The property is approximately one mile from Junction 11 of the M4, with Reading town centre just 3.5 miles away. London Paddington is reachable in as little as 25 minutes by fast train from Reading station.

A particular highlight is the Mereoak Park & Ride, just 15–20 minutes’ walk from the property — an unusually convenient amenity for a quiet residential cul-de-sac. The 600 bus service runs to central Reading up to every 15 minutes throughout the day at a return fare of just £2.50, which includes parking. For London travel, a direct National Express and FlixBus coach service departs Mereoak to London Victoria in approximately 1 hour, with multiple services daily at very affordable fares. The combination of motorway access, fast rail, and an affordable direct coach to London within a 20-minute walk is genuinely rare and represents outstanding value for commuters.
