Occupying a desirable non-estate position, the property enjoys far-reaching views across open grassland, creating a wonderful sense of space and privacy rarely found so close to local conveniences.

Local information
Located to the southwest of Reading town centre, Southcote is a well-established residential suburb with a strong sense of community. The area is centred around Southcote Lane and is bordered by the Bath Road to the north and the Kennet and Avon Canal to the south, providing scenic walking and cycling routes. Southcote offers a range of local amenities including shops, cafés, and a community centre, giving it a friendly and self-contained feel. There are several schools in the area such as Southcote Primary School and Blessed Hugh Faringdon Catholic School, both popular with families. Transport links are convenient, with regular bus services into Reading town centre and nearby access to Reading West and Reading mainline stations for routes to London, Newbury, and beyond. Southcote is popular with both families and professionals seeking quieter surroundings while staying close to town. The area also benefits from access to green spaces including Linear Park and the Holy Brook, ideal for outdoor activities and family walks.

The light-filled and spacious interior offers flexible accommodation ideal for modern family life. The ground floor comprises an entrance hall, a comfortable sitting room, an impressive 27ft kitchen/dining room perfect for entertaining, conservatory overlooking the garden, snug, office, family room, wet room and a separate utility room. The layout provides excellent versatility, whether for growing families, multi-generational living or those working from home.
Upstairs, there are four generous double bedrooms, including a particularly large bedroom that was originally two separate rooms and could easily be reinstated if required. Two bedrooms benefit from en-suite facilities, complemented by a well-appointed family bathroom. In addition, there is a substantial fully boarded loft area offering excellent storage and potential for further use (subject to the necessary consents).
