4 bedroom detached house

DESCRIPTION/LOCATION: A detached chalet style property in a lovely country lane.  Just a short walk to Finchampstead village with it’s Sports Ground and a school for children up to eleven years of age.  Cricket Hill is a lovely location to live with much of the surrounding area including fields with National Trust Land at nearby Finchampstead Ridges.  The property is in a shared catchment area for Secondary Schools with the nearest being Bohunt at Arborfield.  The property is well placed for the motorway network with the M3 available to the south (junction 5) and the M4 to the north (junction 11). 

The house genuinely offers some flexibility in living.  It had been extended/adapted to provide an additional bedroom and bathroom approached from a separate staircase from the dining room and the kitchen also represents an extension to the original house.  The principal reception rooms and kitchen all overlook the rear garden, which faces south and provides a mature private setting.  Bedroom 4 would make an ideal home office or there is the possibility to create an annexe with the dining room on the ground floor becoming a reception area possibly with a kitchenette, bedroom and bathroom approached from a private staircase.
