"We moved here in 2001 with 3 young children. As you can see, there are steps up to the front door and therefore, we were a little concerned and almost didn't arrange a viewing. We're so glad we went with our gut and did as it's been the most lovely house to call home in what is now one of the most popular parts of Tilehurst.

We're right at the end of a very quiet cul-de-sac and you can't even see our house when turning into the road. Nicely hidden away! The garden certainly isn't huge by any stretch of the imagination, but it's low maintenance and gets the sun most of the day so it makes for a very relaxing space and again, very quiet!

To the front of the house is a badgers copse which is protected, so no new builds will be popping up. Walk round the copse and you're in Sulham Woods which is ideal for dog walks etc. We enjoyed the walks with our boy Alfie for 15 years.
The Royal Oak pub is a 15 minute walk away as are the local shops.

The kitchen was refitted in 2013 and we have looked after it well and the conservatory added that same year. The family bathroom and en-suite were replaced 4 years ago. We have kept up with redecoration throughout the house but there are certain rooms that have been left empty for long periods of time and ignored a little. However, they're all neutral, which makes it easy for you to put your own stamp on it.

A few years ago, we looked into converting our basement as some of the neighbours have, but due to personal circumstances at that time, have never carried this out. There is a great opportunity here for a huge basement build and the beauty is, most of it's here already! The neighbours results are fantastic (bit envious), so, we've seen what can be achieved.

All in all, with friendly and sociable neighbours, a quiet position and road and the potential for extra living space, we think this is a great house to call home (may be a little bias) and only moving due to joint replacement and the stairs becoming more exercise than one of us wants!
Next stop...bungalow".
