We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Owners Comments… Dan & Neil Estate Agents’ comments… Looking for a really special home? You might have just found exactly what you're after.
Tucked away behind a secure gated entrance, this 4 bedroom detached house shares its exclusive little spot with just one other property.
But what makes this home genuinely different and honestly, so special, is the incredible front garden. You get a massive space at the front that is owned jointly with the neighbouring property.
It is absolutely perfect for families, giving you a huge garden for children to safely run around and play in right on your doorstep! Inside, the house has a brilliant setup for everyday family life.
You have a welcoming lounge to the front, a separate dining room, and a lovely sunny conservatory, plus a big kitchen that stretches right across the back of the house.
As a fantastic bonus, part of the garage has been cleverly converted to give you an extra reception room or a downstairs bedroom, complete with its own en suite.
Head upstairs, and there's no arguing over who gets the tiny box room, because you've got four proper double bedrooms, alongside a main en suite and a great family bathroom.
If you ever need even more space down the line, there is big potential to extend at the side or at the rear (subject to planning permission, of course).
It’s a fantastic, versatile house that is just waiting for a new family to make it their own! Area Comments… It’s easy to see why Arborfield is such a popular choice.
Perfectly positioned between Wokingham and Reading, you get the very best of both worlds, a relaxed location with effortless access to a fantastic mix of shopping, dining, and nightlife, alongside fast train links for an easy London commute.

Commuting by car is just as seamless, with direct routes to the A33 and M3, as well as Junction 11 of the M4 just moments away. Nature and family life take center stage here.
