This charming thatched cottage, steeped in nearly 400 years of history, presents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts. Located in a serene enclave of central RG6, the property maintains its original character while offering a canvas for modern updates. The home is approached through secure wrought iron gates leading to a spacious driveway and an impressive detached double garage, which holds potential for conversion or expansion (subject to planning).
Inside, the cottage exudes traditional charm with features like exposed beams and leaded windows. While comfortable as-is, there are areas ripe for enhancement—potentially transforming the living spaces to better suit contemporary lifestyles. The four bedrooms include versatile options on both levels; ground floor rooms lend themselves well to guest accommodation or home office setups.
The kitchen/breakfast room stands out with its triple-aspect views and solid oak cabinetry, yet offers room for modernization that could further enhance functionality and aesthetic appeal. The bathroom has been tastefully updated but can still be improved upon to create a more luxurious retreat.
Outside, the expansive garden surrounded by greenery provides an idyllic setting for entertaining or tranquil mornings. Given its proximity to Reading town centre and local amenities, this property not only promises privacy but also significant potential for growth in value through thoughtful renovations.
