Set within a tucked-away 0.9 acre plot, this substantial 5‑bed chalet-style home offers broad countryside views and flexible accommodation including a self-contained annexe. Built in 1964 for the original owner, the property provides generous living space (approx. 3,330 sqft) and a detached triple garage with loft room — ideal for families seeking privacy and space or buyers wanting a renovation project with scope.
The house requires updating in places and offers clear potential for extension or reconfiguration subject to usual planning consents. Practical features include gas central heating, double glazing, PVCu fascias and a substantial outbuilding. The long tarmac drive, central roundabout and gated entrance deliver excellent privacy and abundant off-street parking.
Notable positives are the elevated, far‑reaching rural outlook and the large, enclosed gardens that adjoin farmland within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The annexe provides immediate dual-occupancy use or long‑term rental potential. Good commuter links are nearby via Reading station, M4/M40 connections and local villages with schools and amenities.
Buyers should note the property is being offered chain free but needs renovation and some roof and general updating may be required. Council tax is at a higher band, and any major alterations or extensions will need planning approval. This is a substantial country home for someone seeking a private plot and scope to personalise and improve.
