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
Village home & annexe - Beautifully set back at the end of a lovely private driveway, this gorgeous detached home enjoys a wonderful position within the highly regarded rural village of Swallowfield.
Swallowfield is a village we’ve always held very close to our hearts, and it’s easy to see why.
Surrounded by beautiful countryside, yet with a thriving community, local pub and post office, it offers a fantastic balance of village life and convenience.
There’s also easy access to both Wokingham and Reading, making this a truly lovely place to call home.
The property itself comes to the market as a blank canvas and with the added benefit of no onward chain complications.
From the moment you arrive, there’s plenty of kerb appeal, and stepping inside you’re welcomed by a useful entrance porch.
To the left is the living room, which has a lovely double-width opening through to the impressive open-plan kitchen/dining room.
This creates a fantastic sense of space and allows the accommodation to flow beautifully from one area to another, with direct access out onto the rear garden.
The kitchen itself offers plenty of cupboard storage and useful worktop space.
A fantastic added feature of this home is the extension, which provides a versatile annexe area complete with its own shower room.
This offers plenty of potential for a variety of uses depending on your needs. The ground floor is completed by a useful WC and a separate study.
Upstairs, there are three generous double bedrooms along with the main family bathroom, providing excellent accommodation for a family or those looking for additional space.
Outside, the rear garden is a lovely size and offers a great combination of level lawn and patio, creating a wonderful space to relax, entertain and enjoy the sunshine.
Enclosed by a combination of brick wall and panel fencing, and secured behind a high gate, the garden captures the light beautifully and provides a lovely extension of the living accommodation, perfect for kids and pets to enjoy in equal measure.
A gorgeous home in a wonderful village setting, offering plenty of space, versatility and potential for its next owner.
Yours to make your own, and with no onward chain, we’d highly recommend an early viewing. Viewings can be arranged immediately and are strictly by appointment only.
