Rusvale is a handsome, double-fronted period family home offering nearly 2,400 sq ft of flexible accommodation across two floors. The house sits on a very large, well-screened plot with mature specimen trees, topiary, an orchard and a sunken terrace with a pond—gardens that suit family life and entertaining alike. A generous gravel driveway with turning circle provides abundant parking and leads to a detached garage.
Internally the home retains many period features: exposed beams, parquet and wood floors, leaded glazing, high ceilings and original fireplaces, creating characterful living spaces including a drawing room, family room, snug, study and a P-shaped conservatory. The kitchen and utility are practical for daily use; multiple rooms open directly to the extensive rear terrace for seamless indoor–outdoor flow.
There is genuine scope to remake or extend the layout (subject to planning permission) for growing families who want extra bedrooms or bespoke living space. Local amenities are strong: quiet private lane access to the River Thames and a footpath into Sonning, short drives to the A4 and Twyford mainline station (Elizabeth Line), and several highly regarded primary and secondary schools within easy reach.
Important practical points are set out clearly. The property dates from the early 20th century and has solid brick walls (insulation unspecified), double glazing with unknown installation date and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. The site lies in a high flood-risk area and council tax is described as quite expensive—both factors buyers should weigh and investigate with their surveyor and insurer before committing.
