Description
Built in 1873, this Victorian residence boasts a stunning interior with soaring ceilings, original wall sconces, and intricate cornicing. The home's spacious design features a large kitchen with granite worktops, generous cabinetry, and a working Beatall range, which was manufactured by a local Reading firm. A sympathetic two-storey extension has improved the bathroom accommodation, while underfloor insulation, insulated upper floors, double glazing, and roof-mounted solar panels have enhanced comfort and efficiency.
The home's principal suite is its crowning glory, with a spacious dressing room, en-suite shower room, and elegant fireplace. The remainder of the accommodation maintains the Victorian charm, with generous rooms and high ceilings. The property is situated in Reading's University district, surrounded by mature trees and period homes, with easy access to the University of Reading, Royal Berkshire Hospital, and excellent schools.
A beautiful garden with a central water feature, mature planting, and a charming loggia completes the property.
