4 bedroom detached house

A substantial detached home which sits on large plot on the edge of Wokingham town centre. With an impressive open plan kitchen & family room, excellent parking and a super-sized garden, this combination so close to the town is a rare find.

Guildford Lodge has classic good looks from its 1930's origins, and has been a wonderful family home for approaching 29 years. Ideally located for schools, nearby parks, buses and trains, this family home offers independence to growing teenagers (and an easy lifestyle for the parents!)

The open-plan kitchen is fully-equipped with a range of integrated Bosch appliances, to include dishwasher and a separate oven & oven/microwave. Finishing touches include Italian quartz worktops, breakfast bar, and a boiling water tap for instant drinks and food prepping. This expansive space is zoned with family and dining areas, has under-floor heating throughout, and is crowned with a striking roof lantern. Bi-fold doors to the patio, and a second set opening to the lounge make this space perfectly versatile for family life and year-round entertaining.

The lounge features a handsome stone fireplace, bay window and timber beams. Guildford Lodge offers a downstairs study, four double bedrooms, en-suite to the master, and an airy family bathroom. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility room, cloakroom and integral double-length garage. The red tiled porch provides covered space for wellies and umbrellas to dry.

The garden features a sizeable stone patio with low-level lighting, pergola and a lawned area. Hidden from view in the pictures is a fenced-off allotment / vegetable garden which has mature trees, greenhouse and a shed (with power). There's garden access to the double-length garage and workshop, and a side passage to the driveway. This home is fitted with a water softener, Megaflo hot water system and benefits from Ultrafast Broadband availability.

A Few Words from Quarters

"As you'd expect from a home so close to town, you can enjoy easy walks to Wokingham's wonderful restaurants, bars, coffee shops and eateries. Ironically, for a house with such generous parking, you may find you don't need so many cars as it's easy to walk to schools, bowling, swimming, library and gyms . The train station is a brisk 15 minute walk, and buses to Bracknell and Reading are just a few yards away.

Sitting close to All Saints Church, Guildford Lodge enjoys the gentle bell-ringing on a Sunday (and Tuesday evenings practice!). The Cornerstone at All Saints provides varied community activities (including yoga and crafts), and the church itself is undergoing adaptation to provide social space for the wider community, to include a coffee shop and cultural events.

The 'local' is the Ship Inn, which is just 300 yards away - a landmark building in Wokingham with wonderful beers and a warm welcome!

Close by are the Elizabeth and King George V recreation parks, and some of Wokingham's most sought after schools - St Crispin's, Westende, Wescott (OFSTED Outstanding) and St Teresa's Catholic Primary school (also OFSTED Outstanding). Do check our School Finder tool on the map function for more schools.

We're really looking forward to showing buyers around this super home, so please get in touch with Nick or Teresa with questions or to arrange your viewing"
