Summary - 72A READING ROAD CHINEHAM BASINGSTOKE RG24 8LP
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Ideal family home near top schools with generous garden and flexible living space.
Large enclosed rear garden with terrace, deck and summer house
Set back at the end of Old Reading Road, this four-bedroom detached house offers generous family living across well-proportioned rooms. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite and fitted wardrobes; three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom sit on the first floor. Ground-floor living centres on a bay-fronted main reception with an ornate fireplace and a large conservatory that opens onto the garden.
The kitchen is fitted with shaker-style units around a central island, with a separate utility and ground-floor cloakroom for day-to-day practicality. A ground-floor study provides a quiet workspace and there is additional living flexibility from a bay-fronted room that could be a playroom, home office or fifth bedroom. Outside, a large enclosed garden features a terrace, decked seating area, Mediterranean-style barbecue and a timber summer house with an integrated hot hub for entertaining.
Practical strengths include a wide driveway providing parking for several cars, converted integral garage used for storage, double glazing (install date unknown), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The property is freehold, located in a very low-crime, affluent neighbourhood with good local schools and easy road links to the M3/M4 and Basingstoke. Council tax is high and some elements (age of windows/fixtures and services) reflect the house’s late-1960s/1970s construction and may need updating.
This home will suit a family wanting space to spread out and entertain, with potential for further modernisation to personalise finishes and services. The converted garage and timber music studio add useful ancillary spaces, but buyers should note the loss of a traditional garage and the potential refurbishment requirements of a property of this era.
