Set on a generous, slightly elevated plot in Tilehurst, this chain-free four-bedroom detached house offers practical family living with clear commuter appeal. The property’s main strengths are a large open-plan kitchen/family room, a conservatory that flows to a tiered, landscaped garden with patios and decking, and useful driveway parking plus a detached garage. Located within the catchment for several highly regarded primary and secondary schools and under 2 miles from Tilehurst station, it suits families and those needing good transport links.
The interior is bright with double-glazed windows and a flexible layout across multiple levels: a dual-aspect living room, a downstairs cloakroom, and a generous kitchen/family space opening to the conservatory. The garden benefits from mature trees protected by Tree Preservation Orders, creating privacy and character for outdoor dining and children’s play. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
Notable practical points: the house was professionally underpinned about 18 years ago and documentation is available; heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators; cavity walls have partial insulation. There is just one family bathroom serving four bedrooms, which may be a drawback for larger families and could be addressed through reconfiguration. Council Tax is in Band E (above average).
Overall, the property combines immediate liveability with scope to personalise and update. It will appeal most to growing families who prioritise school catchment, outdoor space and easy commuting, or buyers seeking a well-located home with potential to add value through modernisation.
