With 1885 origins, every detail of Charnwood has been sympathetically refurbished - the result is the immense charm of a period home and the luxury and comfort of a modern build.
True to its era, the bedroom and reception rooms are similar in size, and of square proportions. The exception is the large upstairs bathroom which has hints of Victorian styling, and features a large shower enclosure, sleek bathtub, sash window and plenty of space for ablutions!
The downstairs wet-room is next to the boot room, so ideal for a hot shower after school sports matches, hosing down muddy dogs, or anyone with messy gardening or work clothes. The boot room has a back door, and a large utility range, sink, storage and downstairs loo.
The renovation included opening the kitchen and dining room into one space, and this gives a lovely flow through the house, and a sociable space for meals and entertaining.
The restoration retained chimney breasts and feature fireplaces, pantry, bay windows and storm porch with traditional clay tiles. All internal doors have been painstakingly restored, as has the staircase and storage cupboards. The roof has had new batons, breathable felt, soffit, facia, guttering & downpipes. The roof slates have been re-laid with original & reclaimed tiles, with new lead flashing applied.
The refurbishment included new windows, rear doors, heating system, electrics and re-wiring throughout. Outside, the garden has been beautifully landscaped including fences, new patio and outdoor lighting.
Charnwood is both perfectly-proportioned and perfectly-presented, and retains its original footprint. With its large plot, however, there's scope for the next owner to extend to the rear or side (subject to planning permission) and still retain a good balance of garden and internal size.
* Ultrafast Broadband Capability - 1000 Mpbs download, 50 Mbps upload (checked on Ofcom website Oct 2023)
A Few Words from Quarters
"As you'd expect from a home so close to town, you can enjoy easy walks to Wokingham's wonderful restaurants, bars, coffee shops and eateries. Ironically, for a house with such generous parking, you may find you don't need so many cars as it's easy to walk to schools, bowling, swimming, library and gyms . The train station is a brisk 15 minute walk, and buses to Bracknell and Reading are just a few yards away.
Sitting close to All Saints Church, Charnwood enjoys the gentle bell-ringing on a Sunday (and Tuesday evenings practice!). The Cornerstone at All Saints provides varied community activities (including yoga and crafts), and the church itself has been adapted to provide social space for the wider community, to include a coffee shop and cultural events.
The 'local' is the Ship Inn, which is just 300 yards away - a landmark building in Wokingham with wonderful beers and a warm welcome!
Close by are the Elizabeth and King George V recreation parks, and some of Wokingham's most sought after schools - St Crispin's, Westende, Wescott (OFSTED Outstanding) and St Teresa's Catholic Primary school (also OFSTED Outstanding).
We're really looking forward to showing buyers around this super home, so please get in touch with Nick or Teresa of Quarters Estate Agents Wokingham, with questions or to arrange your viewing"

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on December 16, 2021
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on October 18, 2022
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on January 17, 2019 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
