Additionally, Aldermaston Station and Theale Station are within close reach, offering efficient rail services into Reading and other destinations.

Upstairs, the spacious landing offers potential for cozy reading nooks or additional storage solutions. There are three bedrooms along with a family bathroom ready for modernization. An integral storage area provides further utility while an enclosed garden presents opportunities for outdoor enhancement.
