Set down a private lane in Tilehurst, this substantial five-bedroom detached house sits on a very large plot with a triple garage and generous gravel forecourt for several cars. The house combines period Tudor-style character with contemporary living: an L-shaped living room with open fireplace, a 26ft kitchen/dining room with bi-fold doors, and multiple reception spaces that suit family life and entertaining.
The first floor provides five double bedrooms, three en suites and a family bathroom; the landing offers space ideal for a cinema/TV area or study nook. Practical additions include a utility/shower room with internal access to the triple garage, a separate study/office, and a gym/outbuilding in the rear garden for workouts or a hobbies studio.
Externally the rear garden is mainly lawn with patio, decking and covered seating, offering privacy from mature boundaries. The property appears to have been modernised in places (contemporary kitchen and updated bathrooms), and benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for home working and family connectivity.
Buyers should note material costs: the property is in council tax band G, so running costs will be high. While the home presents substantial living space and a large plot, any purchaser should verify the extent of recent refurbishments and survey for usual maintenance on a period-style property.
