About
An elegant neo-Georgian style detached family home providing four/five bedrooms, offering spacious flexible accommodation in a peaceful location on the edge of Emmer Green and the South Oxfordshire countryside SITUATION Emmer Green is the northernmost suburban neighbourhood of Reading, situated approximately two miles north of the town centre.
Originally a small village, it has expanded significantly over the years and is now a predominantly residential area forming part of the wider Caversham community.
The area benefits from its own shopping precinct and post office, while its well regarded schools include The Hill Primary School, Emmer Green Primary School and Highdown School & Sixth Form Centre.
Emmer Green's northern boundary adjoins the picturesque South Oxfordshire countryside, providing easy access to scenic walking routes, dog walks, trail running paths, cycle trails and attractive countryside rambles.
Nearby Clayfield Copse Nature Reserve offers a popular woodland setting, along with football pitches, tennis courts and open green spaces for recreation and leisure.
Caversham is a highly sought after district of Reading, known for its strong sense of community and distinct village atmosphere.
Bordered by the River Thames to the south, it combines the charm of a village setting with the convenience of being within walking distance of Reading town centre and its mainline railway station, offering excellent transport links to London and beyond.
