A substantial detached bungalow occupying a prime location on Caversham Heights, in a plot measuring 0.86 of an acre.

Location

Moorings is situated on the tree-lined Upper Warren Avenue. It is extremely convenient for the centre of Reading where there are excellent road and rail connections (London Paddington).

Via the A329(M) spur link there is fast access to the M4 at J10 providing a gateway to the M25, London, Heathrow Airport and the West Country.

The nearby towns of Henley, Marlow, Maidenhead, Windsor and Reading provide a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and recreational facilities.

The area is well served for schools, including The Oratory, Bluecoat, Reading, Wellington, The Abbey School for girls and Queen Anne's in Caversham.

The nearby countryside offers miles of extensive walking and riding. Racing may be enjoyed at Windsor and Newbury and there are extensive boating facilities available on the River Thames.

Description

Moorings was built in the early 1940's and has been enjoyed by the same family since then.

Sitting in a highly desirable and elevated position within Caversham, this offers a fantastic opportunity for someone to create a stunning family home (subject to planning permission). The current bungalow consists of entrance hall, kitchen/breakfast room with pantry, utility room, sitting/dining room, three bedrooms, family bathroom, cloakroom and vast loft space.

The current dwelling will require modernisation and most likely reconfiguring the layout to suit modern needs. Subject to planning permission, there may be the possibility of adding extensions and creating new dwellings.

Outside
The plot measures approximately 0.86 of an acre. The property is accessed through a gate and has a gravel driveway leading to the parking area which will cater for several vehicles. There are an abundance of mature trees, shrubs and hedges as well as lawn areas. Because of this, it gives a real sense of privacy. To one side of the dwelling, there is a single garage which is used for storage. The rear garden is very similar to the front with its mature hedges and shrubs as well as being mainly laid to lawn. There is a large vegetable patch, a selection of fruit trees and a summer house, all enclosed with fencing and hedging
