Gipsy Lane is almost a community in its own right including 19thC, 20thC and 21stC terraced, semi-detached and detached houses. The parkland and allotments and the winding nature of the lane create a village atmosphere. 

Wokingham is a strategic centre with good road and rail links. It also has a very good selection of secondary schools with 5 (good or excellent) offering a shared catchment. Walks to the countryside at the rear and the parkland opposite are two noteworthy features. Wokingham Town Centre has vibrant characteristics following the regeneration – lots of cafes and restaurants, some shops and parkland. There is also a Leisure Centre with swimming pool and library.

The accommodation comprises:

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    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

    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
