This is a wonderful opportunity to purchase this immaculately presented home situated in a popular Berkshire village. The house is set within a plot of approximately 0.52 acres, with a great deal of privacy.

Corner House is a superb detached family home. The property is entered via a spacious, double-height entrance hall with doors radiating to the reception rooms, kitchen and stairs rising to the first floor. The reception rooms include a dual-aspect sitting room with French doors to the garden and an open fireplace; a dining room with French windows opening on to the rear terrace; a study with shelving and storage; and a spacious family room with a large window overlooking the front garden.
Corner House benefits from a beautiful kitchen/breakfast room leading into a fantastic conservatory, providing space for a great seating area with a feature brick fireplace and wood-burning stove. The kitchen area has a range of wall and floor units beneath a Corian worktop and a beautiful curved central island with a mixture of wood and Corian. There is a range of integrated appliances, including a microwave, dishwasher and range cooker. There is ample space for a dining table, and the conservatory ensures this space works perfectly for open-plan family living. A spacious utility is accessed from the kitchen with extensive fitted units and integrated appliances, including a fridge/freezer and a sink. From the utility is a shower room and access via a glazed corridor to a gym/bedroom/living room ideal for those requiring a separate annexe with its own entrance.

The first floor has a spacious galleried landing leading to the bedrooms and bathrooms. The principal bedroom, with an en suite bathroom with a standalone bath and walk-in shower, has fitted wardrobes and views over the rear garden. There are four further bedrooms, one with an en suite shower and three with fitted wardrobes. A family bathroom and two large cupboards complete the first-floor accommodation.

The gardens wrap around the property. To the front is a brick-paved driveway with ample space for several cars and leading to two single garages. To one side of the driveway is a wonderful pond with decking and metal railings, an ideal area to watch local visiting wildlife.
To the rear of the property is an attractive garden laid mainly on the lawn with mature shrub borders and trees. A swimming pool is to the rear of the garden, with a fantastic sunny terrace, a BBQ area, and a pool room. A utility area with raised flower/vegetable beds is to one side of the garden. The whole garden and grounds are bordered by mature hedges and trees, providing a fantastic sense of privacy.
