Description

This four-bedroom detached home in a tranquil Earley cul-de-sac presents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts and investors. Offered for the first time on the market, this property is ripe for transformation, allowing new owners to modernize and personalize it to their tastes. Although it requires full refurbishment, its substantial plot size offers ample space for potential extensions and alterations, aligning with similar developments in the area. The current layout includes an entrance hall, a downstairs WC, a spacious living room, a separate dining room, and a kitchen on the ground floor. Upstairs features four generously-sized bedrooms along with a family bathroom. The existing configuration provides flexibility for reconfiguring spaces or adding more rooms, subject to planning permission. Externally, there's the potential to enhance the property’s kerb appeal by extending the driveway into the garden area and utilizing the garage effectively. The rear garden offers privacy and retreat as it backs onto a cut-through from Beech Lane. Located in Loxwood, this home benefits from proximity to reputable schools such as Maiden Erlegh School and Kendrick School, making it particularly appealing for families. Nearby Maiden Erlegh Nature Reserve adds attractive green space for outdoor activities. Local amenities are within easy reach, complemented by excellent transport links into Reading and straightforward access to major roadways including the M4. Such opportunities are scarce in this desirable location; therefore, this property is well-positioned as an exciting project for those looking to craft their ideal family home.
