House For Sale £1,000,000
The Property
The house is set well back from the road on a private drive and backs onto playing fields. The house has been modernised by the current owners to create a stylish home with large bright rooms the majority of which benefit from pleasant views over the south west facing gardens to the rear.
On entering the property, the central hallway leads through to the impressive open plan kitchen/dining family room which spans the full depth of the house with sliding doors opening onto the patio and garden beyond. The beautifully appointed kitchen features a large breakfast bar and benefits from a range of wall and base units, a built-in hob, oven, dishwasher, space for a fridge and freezer, and a washing machine. A side door from the kitchen provides access to both the front and back gardens and the single garage. Adjacent to the kitchen is the study overlooking the back garden and on the other side of the house is the sitting room, a well proportioned room with an open fireplace and beautiful parquet flooring, a feature throughout the ground floor. The sitting room enjoys a double aspect with views over both the front and back garden with sliding doors opening onto the patio and the downstairs cloakroom completes the accommodation on the ground floor.
The Property (continued)
Upstairs there are three double bedrooms. The principle bedroom has fitted wardrobes, air conditioning and a stylish en suite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms, both of which are served by the family bathroom.
Gardens & Grounds
To the front of the property a gravel driveway provides plenty of off street parking and access to the single garage. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn and is enclosed by a pretty picket fence. Side access leads to the south west facing rear garden with its large expanse of lawn flanked on either side by mature flower beds and a variety of shrubs and trees. There is a vegetable garden with raised beds, a useful garden shed and a large patio which spans the width of the house and provides a lovely place to sit and entertain.
Situation
Wheildon is located in the historic village of Sonning situated on the River Thames. This picturesque village provides lovely walks along the tow path, good pubs, restaurants and a theatre. Both Twyford (2.1 miles) and Reading (4 miles) provide extensive shopping facilities and fast commuter train links to London's Paddington Station and the Elizabeth Line. The local area has golf and health clubs and good schooling is plentiful in both the state and private sectors, including the Reading Blue Coat School (co-educational) and the well regarded Sonning C of E primary school within the village itself.
