Summary - 120 WOODCOTE ROAD CAVERSHAM READING RG4 7EZ
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Large private garden and gated parking in an affluent Caversham Heights location.
Approximately 3,156 sq ft of heated living space
This substantial 1930s detached house sits on an unusually deep plot of about 150ft, offering abundant space for family life and outdoor living. The heart of the home is a 31ft open-plan kitchen/dining/family room that opens onto the rear terrace, while a separate living room with an 18ft vaulted ceiling creates a striking, light-filled retreat. Two ensuite bedrooms, a study and multiple reception rooms give flexibility for home working, formal entertaining and family bedrooms.
Practical strengths are clear: private gated driveway with ample parking, a large 22ft entrance hall, utility room, and scope for an annexe-style arrangement in the two-storey rear extension. The property extends to approximately 3,156 sq ft of heated accommodation and sits about 1.5 miles from Reading station, convenient for commuters. Local schools include highly regarded primaries and secondaries, making this well suited to growing families.
Buyers should note the house’s age and mixed updating. Parts of the property have been modernised by the current owners, but other areas will benefit from further refurbishment to meet contemporary standards and personal taste. Council Tax Band G (quite expensive) is a material running cost to consider. Tenure is freehold.
Overall, the house offers a rare combination of size, plot and flexible layout in an affluent neighbourhood — a strong proposition for families seeking long-term space and the opportunity to personalise a distinctive 1930s home.
