Summary - Ashridgewood Place, Forest Road RG40 5RA
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Renovated period house with paddocks, outbuildings and conversion potential.
Detached early Victorian farmhouse set within approximately 3.7 acres
Ashridgewood Place is an early Victorian farmhouse set well back from Forest Road within about 3.7 acres of gardens, paddocks and outbuildings. The house has been newly renovated to combine preserved period detail — fireplaces, high ceilings, Douglas fir doors — with bright, contemporary living spaces, including a modern open-plan kitchen and an original flagstone terrace. Stabling, a coach house and a detached garage offer scope for equestrian use and additional living space, subject to planning permission.
The principal suite features an ensuite and a private walk-out balcony with panoramic rural views. Four further bedrooms (one easily reinstated from its current dressing-room use), three reception rooms and three newly fitted bathrooms with Crittall finishes provide flexible accommodation for family life, home working and entertaining. The property is detached, private and located in a very affluent, low-crime hamlet offering excellent mobile signal and fast broadband.
Practical considerations include oil-fired central heating, secondary glazing and solid brick walls that are assumed uninsulated. Council tax is above average. While the house has been extensively refurbished, the outbuildings and substantial plot present further renovation or conversion potential — useful for buyers seeking added value but requiring permissions and project work.
This home will appeal to families wanting country living within reach of Wokingham and transport links (Wokingham and Twyford stations, and easy access to the M4/M3), and to buyers seeking an equestrian-capable property with substantial land and strong long-term potential.
