Soane End
5 bedroom property in Emmer Green, Reading
Philip Baker & Co are delighted to offer for sale this beautifully appointed, five bedroom, detached family home which is located in one of the most sought after addresses within the prestigious district of Emmer Green.
Soane End is a small and most exclusive cul-de-sac which comprises just a handful of executive homes. This extremely attractive home was built in the "cottage style" just a few years ago by Messrs. Westbuild Homes who have a huge reputation as one of the finest developers in and around Berkshire specialising in quality homes for the discerning buyer. This particular property has been extended and further enhanced by the present owners with the addition of stunning bathrooms, a luxury kitchen, showhouse d‚cor plus lots, lots, more.
In addition to the features on offer and for those who work from home, there is the added benefit of a first floor office independently accessed from the front of the property which could be used by clients thus not needing to access the house for business. Alternatively, the room is currently being used as a gymnasium but, has a whole range of uses.
To the front of the property the driveway provides off road parking for several vehicles plus there is an 18FT double garage. To the rear of the property is a truly delightful, landscaped garden which extends to circa 100FT in length and like the property has to be viewed to be appreciated.
