This immaculately presented five‑bedroom detached home sits on a corner plot in a quiet Shinfield cul‑de‑sac, laid out over three floors to give genuine flexibility for family life. High‑spec contemporary fixtures, bi‑folding doors to a low‑maintenance landscaped garden and an EV charging point add modern convenience. The entrance hall leads to an adaptable front room currently used as a home salon/office, while a generous living room and kitchen/breakfast area create practical everyday living spaces.
The first floor houses a principal bedroom with dressing area and en‑suite, plus two further bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom; two more bedrooms and a bathroom on the second floor form a separate teenagers’/guest suite. The property was substantially refurbished since 2018 (originally a six‑bedroom) and presents well throughout, with double glazing and contemporary heating. A detached single garage, driveway parking and planning approval to extend the garage offer clear potential to increase footprint or storage.
Practical points to note: the house occupies a decent but not expansive plot with a small/average front garden and low‑maintenance rear garden. Council tax is described as fairly expensive, and the single garage currently limits covered parking until any extension is completed. Overall, this is a ready‑to‑move‑into family home offering flexible accommodation, modern finishes and scope for modest further improvement.
