25, Berkeley Drive, Read, BB12 7QG

A beautifully presented and thoughtfully modernised detached true bungalow, quietly nestled on a peaceful cul-de-sac within one of the area’s most sought-after residential developments.

Occupying a generous and mature plot, this exceptional home boasts landscaped gardens, an extensive driveway, and a refined interior - offering a rare opportunity for effortless, single-storey living in an established and tranquil setting.

Meticulously updated to exacting standards, this superb bungalow benefits from a complete roof replacement in 2018 and features elegant oak internal doors, recently fitted extended kitchen area with part under floor heating, engineered wooden flooring, and a striking cast iron multi-fuel stove.

A stylish Ultraframe glass-roofed conservatory extends the living space and provides panoramic views of the landscaped rear garden, blending year-round comfort with serene outdoor connection.

At the front of the home, a spacious and light-filled lounge offers a welcoming retreat, complete with a bay window and an eye-catching fireplace set with a multi-fuel stove atop a slate hearth.

The heart of the home lies in the open-plan dining kitchen to the rear, a contemporary space fitted with part electric under floor heating, high-gloss cabinetry, Quartz worktops and breakfast Island, and an array of integrated Neff appliances including a fan oven, combination microwave, ceramic hob, and slimline dishwasher.

A light tunnel and wide patio doors invite natural light to cascade through the space, seamlessly linking indoor dining with the conservatory beyond.

The conservatory itself is a bright and airy retreat, constructed in durable white uPVC with triple-glazed windows, tiled flooring, and French doors opening onto the landscaped garden - a peaceful haven ideal for both morning coffee and evening relaxation.

Accommodation comprises two generously proportioned double bedrooms, both benefiting from a full wall of bespoke fitted wardrobes and pleasant aspects to the front and rear.

The contemporary four-piece bathroom is luxuriously appointed with fully tiled walls and floor, a large walk-in glass-panelled shower with Mira thermostatic fitting, a modern wall-hung basin with chrome mixer tap, a deep panelled bath, and a tall heated towel rail, all illuminated by recessed spotlighting.

Externally, the property is equally impressive. A large tarmacadam driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a single garage with power, lighting, and secure up-and-over door.

The front garden is lawned with attractively stocked borders, while side access guides you to the private and meticulously landscaped rear garden.
