This immaculate five-bedroom detached house offers over 2,000 sq ft of family-focused living in a quiet, affluent Shinfield neighbourhood. The ground floor centres on an open-plan kitchen/dining/family room that opens to a generous south‑west facing garden — a bright space for children and entertaining. Separate reception rooms, a study and a utility add practical flexibility for home working and daily life.
Accommodation includes three bathrooms (two en suite), a double garage and extensive driveway parking. Large windows take in views over nearby cricket pitches, while the detached build and well-sized plot give privacy and scope for outdoor living. The location is convenient for Reading town centre (3.5 miles), M4 J11 and several good primary schools, making it well-suited to growing families.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations. Broadband speeds are slow locally and council tax is described as quite expensive. There is a modest service charge of £350 (below average) and an AML identity-check fee of £25 will be payable as part of sale progression. The huge plot may present future development potential but any change would require planning consent.
Overall, this chain-free property balances generous internal space, strong local schools and easy commuter links with a large private garden and double garage — a straightforward family home with clear potential for updating and personalization.
