Description

Offered for sale with granted planning permission is this three-bedroom detached character residence, situated on a highly desirable road in Sonning. The property benefits from a generous south-facing rear garden and is approached via an impressive sweeping in-and-out driveway.

The approved planning permission provides an incoming owner with the opportunity to transform the property into a substantial six-bedroom, six-bathroom home arranged over three floors and extending to approximately 5,000 sq ft. This represents an exciting prospect and the potential to create an exceptional family home. CGI images of the proposed front and rear elevations, as well as a floor plan, are included within the marketing materials.

Upon entering the existing property, the main hallway leads to the dining room, a characterful living room featuring exposed wooden beams and an open fireplace, a fitted kitchen overlooking the rear garden, a utility room, a downstairs W/C, and a family room, also enjoying views of the garden.

On first floor there are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, a further single bedroom, and a family bathroom. The top floor provides a usable attic room with access to an en-suite bathroom.

Externally, the rear of the property offers an extensive garden predominantly laid to lawn, with gated side access, a patio area, shed, and lean-to. To the front, the property is approached via a gravel in-and-out driveway.

The property is conveniently located within 2 miles of Twyford mainline railway station, offering Crossrail services, and approximately 5 miles from Reading station, providing excellent connections to London Paddington. The A4 and A329M/M4 are also easily accessible by car. Nearby amenities include idyllic Sonning pubs, Sonning Golf Club, Woodley shopping precinct, and a selection of well-regarded schools such as Bluecoat, Waingels College, Sonning Primary, and Willowbank Primary.

Full application for the proposed demolition of existing dwelling and erection of new two-storey dwelling with roof accommodation, along with associated outbuilding, access gates and boundary wall.
