Langborough Road, Wokingham, Berkshire, RG40

As you would expect in a property of its age, the house follows a traditional layout with two large reception rooms on the ground floor retaining many character features with fireplaces and bay frontage this home has had sympathetic upgrades including replacement windows in a sash-style, wood-burning stove, and modern bathroom with Victorian-style brick tiling. The galley kitchen has timeless Shaker-style units, timber work-surfaces, and a statement Stoves cooker. The original fireplace lends itself to storage (or wine storage), and the laundry / utility room offers plenty of practical space (and is ideal with back door for muddy boots and dogs etc). This space could also be opened up to create a larger kitchen / breakfast room.

The living room has a lovely bay window seat, and additional daylight through a second window. This room has built in storage in the chimney breast alcove, and a handsome fireplace with wood-burning stove.

The dining room has a feature fireplace and is conveniently right next to the kitchen through an arch. This cottage has two single bedrooms, a modern shower room, and a spacious double bedroom with feature fireplace.

Outside is an enclosed garden with a modern garden cabin which gets the best of the afternoon sun.
