    Chain free. Occupying an elevated and secluded position - this wonderful Barkham home has generous room sizes throughout, including a kitchen which opens to a full-width 27' family & dining room.

    With around 2,000 sq ft of living space, everything is perfectly proportioned for a family's needs - the kitchen breakfast bar opening to dining space, utility room with sink & garden access, a cloakroom (with space for coats outside), and large entrance porch with inner door. All bedrooms have lovely large windows for optimum daylight, with three of the four enjoying green views over the garden. The master bedroom has an en-suite shower, walk-in wardrobe, and yet more daylight through fanlights from its bathroom.

    The living room, which is larger than the family / dining room, is currently arranged into two distinct 'zones' - the TV & sofa corner, and a place to study. Both ends of the room enjoy plenty of natural light and, with its double doors opening to the family room, this room is versatile for entertaining or quiet nights. Anyone with young children will appreciate the seamless flow around the downstairs (as they love to run around!), but this feature also means every room is light-filled.

    There's a third large reception room to the right of the hallway, and this is ideal for TV, playroom, study or a guest / fifth bedroom (there's scope to add guest facilities by re-siting the existing cloakroom)

    The garden will be a treat for nature-lovers and vegetable growers - stocked with mature trees (including apple and maple trees), a vegetable patch, irrigation system and greenhouse. The lawned area is separated by a trellis pergola and, at the very back of the garden there's ideal space for children to build dens and play their games.

    The detached double garage has the ease of automated door, lighting, and side door, and driveway parking for 4 cars (with scope to create more).

    Local good early years schools include Windmill Primary, Walter Infant, Evendons Primary and St Paul's CofE. Secondary school options include Bohunt, The Holt and St Crispins (please check with school admissions)


    A Few Words from Quarters

    "We particularly love the generous room sizes and the light hallway with its open-tread staircase. The current owners have recently decorated and re-carpeted throughout, so it's ready for new owners to put their own mark on this home.

    Living here means a short walk to Barkham Road where buses run to Wokingham, Arborfield and Reading. It also means having Ye Olde Leathern Bottle as your local (we've sampled the food in our research!), but if you're looking to work up more of an appetite, there are country walks to The Walter Arms on Bearwood Road (which you can walk to through Sandy Lane) It's around 1.5 miles to Wokingham train station, and the new owners will be able to enjoy Fox Hill Woodland walks.

    Please contact Nick or Teresa of Quarters Estate Agents Wokingham for more details, or to arrange your viewing - we're looking forward to showing you around."
