4 bed link detached house for sale in Wheatfields Road, Shinfield, Wokingham, RG2 (ref:575922)

We moved into our lovely newly built home in 1996, when our son was very young, and it’s been our happy family home ever since.

We believe we have stayed so long, as the house and the location have met all our changing family and work situations. Walking our son to the local schools, frequenting local pubs and restaurants, and having easy access to the M4/M3 corridor for work, as well as being close to both Wokingham and Reading town centres.

The spacious, non-overlooked garden has been brilliant for our son’s many birthday parties, BBQs with friends and family gatherings. A safe and enclosed area for the kids to play in. Over the years, there have been playhouses, climbing frames and for many years a trampoline.

The clean lines of the large lounge and separate dining room allowed us to easily adapt and change these over the years as we wished, as did the good-sized bedrooms.

The addition of the conservatory gave a wonderful new dimension to our home. To ensure we could use this all-year round, we chose a size and shape that was good for entertaining, good quality tiles and importantly added underfloor electric heating, along with the electric automatic skylight.

It has meant no matter what the weather we have always had somewhere to entertain. In summer, we open both patio doors and the windows and use the space combined with the patio.

In winter, we often sit in the conservatory to read the Sundays and at Christmas time the addition of a tree and lots of friends makes for a great space for a festive gathering.

We renovated the original kitchen and utility room around 7/8 years ago and redesigned it in a way that worked for us to use as a family dining space and allowed plenty of room for storage and cooking.

We added a range cooker, a full-length integrated fridge, an integrated freezer and a FRANKE stainless steel sink and a half with a waste disposal.

We chose good quality marble worktops with large slate floor tiles and changed the electrics so we could have spots in the ceiling and under cupboard down lighters.

In summary it’s a great sized home, far from the standard developer design with plenty of space both inside and outdoors, a real family home, close to local shops and schools, and pubs and only one owner.

We hope the next lucky owners will be as happy here as we have been.

This one really is exciting. When this home was built, it really was thought about. The space in each room is superb and the flow is great, couple this with some super amendments from the sellers and you have this masterpiece! You are welcomed by a large hallway, where you will find your stairs and the cloakroom. You have three reception rooms, the dining room, lounge then the conservatory, where our sellers spend all of their time with the sunny aspect garden and underfloor heating.

On the other side, you have a refitted modern kitchen and utility room with rear access. Upstairs you have four really good sized rooms, a bathroom and an en suite! The garage and driveway parking are a real plus as well as the garden, which is very private and sunny!

Wheatfields Road is set in the heart of Shinfiled village, proven by how long people stay here. Everything you need is within walking distance, from local shops and pubs like the popular Shinfield Arms, to access to green space like Langley Mead Nature Reserve, there are some great schools nearby as well making this a great area for families. If it's commuting you are after, then junction 11 of the M4 is a 5-minute drive, as well as bus routes into Reading town and Wokingham and the new Green Park Railway not too far either. Putting this all together, along with the safe area and private feel, you won't want to move for a long time.
