PRIME by Hat and Home - Located along this sought-after residential street in the popular Berkshire village of Sonning is this impressively extended and completely renovated family home.

Offering over 4000 sq. ft. of versatile accommodation, Little Shire has been finished to an exquisite standard from top to bottom. A highlight is the 37 ft. open-plan kitchen, dining and living area ideally located to the rear of the home, overlooking the landscaped garden. This space, characterised by vaulted ceilings, large windows, and French patio doors leading out to the garden, oozes natural light, creating the perfect blend of indoor/ outdoor living. The impressive Shaker style fitted kitchen is certainly the hub of the home and is complete with built-in appliances, a cleverly designed central island with a breakfast bar, and not forgetting the owner’s favourite part, a hidden walk-in pantry, providing invaluable storage.

On arrival, you are welcomed by the sizeable in-and-out driveway, which offers ample parking space without obstruction from either entrance, providing convenience for the owners, as well as additional space for visitors without the need for car shuffling. Walking through the front door and the quality of this home becomes instantly apparent. The spacious hallway provides access to the principal reception rooms including a fully fitted study, separate dining room, cloakroom, and a beautiful main living room with exposed beams and a stunning log-burning fireplace. A sliding door conveniently connects the living room to the open-plan dining area.

To the left-hand side of the home, located behind the double garage you’ll find the extensive utility room, perfect for hiding those muddy boots, along with access into the self-contained annexe. The annexe features its own front and back door entrance enabling this to become a completely separate space if required. With an open plan living area downstairs, shower room and bedroom above, this space presents various possibilities from a teenager’s get away, to housing for an elderly relative or even an independent rental!

Upstairs, and you’ll find four well-proportioned double bedrooms with a hugely impressive principal suite. Accessible via a walk-through dressing room, the extended suite spans 20’8 ft., with vaulted ceilings, a beautifully fitted four-piece en suite featuring a stunning free-standing bath, and a private roof terrace overlooking the garden – an ideal spot for a morning coffee or that glass of wine in the evening watching the sun go down. Bedrooms two and three also benefit from en suite shower rooms, whilst the fourth bedroom is conveniently located next to the separate shower room.

Externally, Little Shire offers both privacy and seclusion. Tastefully landscaped and easy to maintain, the garden showcases a balance of mature borders, a spacious patio terrace, and lawn, giving options for both outside entertaining and a safe environment for younger children to run and play.

Mustard Lane is located just one mile from the River Thames, offering easy access to enjoyable riverside walks along the Thames Path, as well as esteemed dining options such as the Michelin-recommended French Horn restaurant and the Coppa Club next to Sonning Bridge. Sought-after schools are also nearby including Reading Blue Coat, as well as various sports facilities, including Sonning Lawn Tennis Club, Berkshire County Sports Club and Sonning Golf Club.

Internal viewings of this exceptionally presented and extended family home are truly recommended to fully appreciate the bright and open living spaces on offer as well as the quality of fixtures, fittings and finishes chosen by the current owners.
