About
Owners Comments… This house has a huge piece of my heart, I actually grew up here with my mum, dad, and brother after it was built in 1997.
After moving away for a while, my husband and I decided there was no better place to settle down, so we moved back into my childhood home to raise our daughter here.
Honestly, the only reason we are moving now is because it's just too much house for the three of us.
We love Swallowfield way too much to actually leave the village, so we are staying local, it’s just time for a bit of a change and a new chapter for our family.
What we’ll miss the most is the incredible community right on our doorstep. The neighbours here aren't just people next door; they’ve become genuine friends.
We’ve poured so much love into this house over two generations, and we really hope the next family fills these huge rooms with as much laughter and happy memories as we did.
Dan & Neil Estate Agents’ comments… Tucked away in the desirable Curlys Way, Swallowfield, this seriously impressive home has been loved by the same family since the 90s and has so much space to offer.
Built in 1997 by Bewley Homes, this is the Goodwood design, and interestingly, it’s the only one down here!
It sits within *The Paddocks*, a small cul-de-sac of detached, big family homes with a really lovely community feel.
The neighbours are close, there’s a road WhatsApp group and even plenty of events, it’s the sort of place where people actually know each other! Inside, the space just keeps coming.
There are five big bedrooms, all with fitted storage, with the two main bedrooms both enjoying their own en-suites.
There’s also a refitted family bathroom featuring a rather brilliant bath previously owned by Roger Taylor, drummer from Queen! And downstairs certainly doesn’t disappoint.
You’ve got a huge, bright front-to-back lounge opening onto the garden, a separate dining room and a playroom at the front, giving you three reception rooms in total.
Then there’s the kitchen/breakfast room, with a recently updated utility room just off it.
Outside, there’s a double garage and loads of driveway parking, so there’s no shortage of space for cars, bikes, toys and everything else family life throws at you.
There’s plenty of practical stuff covered too, with a new boiler, EV charger and solar panels, plus a refitted downstairs W.C.
Quite simply, this is a home with space, character, a brilliant community and plenty of family-friendly extras.
If you’ve been searching for a proper forever family home, this one is definitely worth a look!
Area Comments… Set in the heart of sought-after Swallowfield, this home gives you that peaceful village lifestyle without feeling cut off from everything else.
You’re surrounded by beautiful countryside, with the scenic grounds of Swallowfield Park nearby — perfect for a dog walk or a Sunday stroll.
There’s a lovely community feel here too, with popular local pubs, a village shop, primary school and plenty of picturesque walking routes all close by.
And when you need to head further afield, you’re well connected to Reading, Wokingham and Basingstoke, with great transport links making commuting and days out nice and easy.
Basically, it’s village life at its best, peaceful, pretty and practical.
