About
Situated on Water Road, Reading, this beautifully presented three-bedroom detached home offers generous living space, a fantastic open-plan layout and excellent versatility, making it an ideal choice for families, professionals and those looking to work from home.
The property is in great condition throughout and has been thoughtfully extended to create a spacious and welcoming home that blends practicality with modern family living.
Further benefits include 14 solar panels, which will remain with the property, offering the potential to improve energy efficiency and help reduce reliance on mains electricity.
Upon entering the property, you are greeted by an extended side entrance leading into an impressively wide hallway, immediately creating a wonderful sense of space.
To the right, the separate living room is generously proportioned, providing a comfortable and inviting space to relax away from the main living areas.
To the left, a separate utility room offers a practical space for laundry and appliances, keeping household noise away from the main living areas.
There is also a convenient downstairs WC and useful storage beneath the stairs.
Double doors from the hallway lead into the true heart of the home: An impressive extended rear addition featuring a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area.
Designed with family life and entertaining in mind, the kitchen is complemented by a breakfast bar, while the adjoining dining area and additional lounge space create a wonderful environment for everyday living and social occasions.
Bi-fold doors open directly onto the rear garden, allowing natural light to flood the space and creating a seamless connection between indoors and outdoors during the warmer months.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three well-proportioned double bedrooms.
The third bedroom is currently arranged as a home office, offering an excellent solution for those working remotely, although it could easily be returned to a bedroom if required.
The master bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while a separate family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.
Outside, the rear garden provides an attractive space to relax and entertain, with a patio area ideal for outdoor dining and seating.
An electric gate provides access to an area where a vehicle can be stored, subject to the buyer's requirements and suitability.
To the rear of the garden, a substantial outbuilding has been divided into two separate rooms while remaining one structure.
The right-hand section is currently used as a workshop and already benefits from electricity, while the second room offers a blank canvas for the next owner.
Whether envisioned as a playroom, home office, hobby room or additional lifestyle space, the possibilities are plentiful.
Alternatively, the dividing wall could potentially be removed to create a larger, more versatile space, with the possibility of exploring an annex-style arrangement.
The location adds further appeal, with Reading offering an excellent balance of everyday convenience, green spaces, shopping and leisure facilities.
The town centre provides an extensive choice of shops, restaurants, cafés and entertainment, while Reading railway station offers direct rail connections to London and other major destinations, making the area particularly attractive to commuters.
The Elizabeth line further enhances connectivity across London, while road links via the A33 and M4 provide convenient access to the surrounding Thames Valley, business parks and beyond.
A range of local schools, supermarkets, amenities and recreational facilities also make the area well suited to family life, with the wider Reading area offering parks, riverside walks and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.
