Spring Cottage is thought to have been the Grooms accommodation to the neighbouring property, Loddon Court. It is attached to The Coach House and an internal door, currently double-locked and sound-proofed, could bring the two homes into one on the ground floor.

Spring Cottage shares the same driveway as The Coach House and has its own separate private parking area for several vehicles beside the front garden and in front of the detached single garage. The front garden is delightful and has a grass lawn and an ornamental pond.

On the ground floor there is a bright, L-shaped sitting room and a separate dining room or study. The kitchen overlooks the front garden and there is a ground floor cloakroom.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom has an en suite shower room and there are two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

To the rear of the cottage is a small south-facing walled courtyard that is accessed through the cottage through French door.

The property is situated in a rural position on the outskirts of Swallowfield (mentioned in the Doomsday Book) just to the south of Reading. The pretty, vibrant village of Swallowfield is surrounded by farmland and has a shop/post office, public houses (including the gourmet George & Dragon), doctor's surgery, church, parish hall and a very active tennis club close by in Riseley. The nearby centres of Reading, Wokingham and Basingstoke are all within easy daily reach and provide a broader range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities.

Communications in the area are first-class with the M3 and M4 motorways a short drive away. There are mainline stations at Reading – recently opened Crossrail giving access to Canary Wharf in 59 minutes. Mortimer station giving access to Reading or Basingstoke is just 4 miles away. Wokingham to London Waterloo providing fast and regular services.

There are a number of excellent state and private schools within the area, including Daneshill, St Neots, Wellington College, Lord Wandsworth College, Bradfield College and Pangbourne. In Wokingham you have The Forest and Holt schools, and of course up the top of the lane from the Coach House is Lambs Lane Primary school.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 12, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 12, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on September 9, 2014 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
