Flint Cottage is a well-appointed and handsome family home constructed by esteemed local housebuilder Westbuild Homes, offering an array of flexible, modern accommodation and a private garden.
The airy reception hall with its stairs to the first-floor level and access to the useful study, ideal for those working from home, leads through to the considerable dual-aspect drawing room. With charming exposed timber support beams, an attractive brick-built feature fireplace housing a Stovax log burning stove and French doors flowing onto the property's wide rear terrace, it provides the ideal space for receiving and entertaining family and friends. Adjacent is a beautifully sunny garden room, benefitting from vaulted ceilings and tranquil views of the pretty landscaped terrace and garden. The sociable and contemporary 21ft kitchen/breakfast room, also overlooking the garden, comprises a wide range of bespoke wall and base cabinetry and several integrated appliances, including a Rangemaster cooker. The breakfast area is flooded with natural light from the adjoining garden room, offering a wonderful space for casual family mealtimes, whilst the further formal dining room with its beamed ceilings offers an additional flexible space. There is also a well-sized utility room alongside the kitchen, as well as a handy cloakroom.
On the first floor there is a sizeable principal bedroom suite, containing a range of fitted wardrobes and a five-piece en suite bathroom featuring double sinks. An additional bedroom benefits from a modern en suite shower room, whilst two further well-proportioned bedrooms are well served by the stylish skylit family bathroom. A further bedroom laying adjacent to the principle bedroom could also double as a nursery.

Flint Cottage is located in one of Tilehurst’s most sought-after residential locations, within less than half a mile of the mainline station with its services to London Paddington in under 45 minutes. An even faster service can be accessed in nearby Reading, reaching Paddington in as little as half an hour, with the Crossrail services (Elizabeth Line) now open. The picturesque open spaces of Arthur Newbery park and the River Thames are within easy reach, as are an array of local shopping facilities and supermarkets at Overdown Road and Kentwood Hill. Reading town centre, with its even wider selection of shops, restaurants and facilities is just over 3 miles distant, with convenient access to Junction 12 of the M4 in under 4 miles, providing links to the further motorway network, Oxford, central London and its airports.
There is a wealth of well-regarded schooling options nearby, including Pangbourne College, The Abbey School and St Andrew’s.
The property benefits from a well-screened private plot within this desirable residential setting, and is approached via electrically operated gates opening onto a large herringbone brick-laid 'in and out' driveway. This leads to the double garage, with its electrically operated doors, power and light and an attic space. The garden is neatly landscaped and largely laid to level lawn, bordered by various well-established and maintained shrubs and mature trees. There is a dedicated space for a hot tub and summer house and a decked seating area. A substantial paved, raised terrace with steps to the lawn spans the width of the home. The sociable terrace was designed to capture the sun at varying times of the day and
provides a delightful space for al fresco dining.
