Dewe Lane, Burghfield, Reading, Berkshire, RG30

This luxury riverside home occupies a remarkable setting within an exclusive gated estate on a private island, offering nearly 3000 sq ft of immaculately refurbished living space. Blending striking modern design with thoughtful detailing, the property enjoys a rare combination of privacy, comfort, and direct river access – complete with mooring and fishing rights.

Tucked away along one of Burghfield’s most prestigious private roads, the approach immediately conveys a sense of arrival. The house is discreetly set behind electric gates with a generous driveway and detached double garage, while mature landscaping and a professionally designed garden create a fitting introduction to this one-of-a-kind home.

Inside, the accommodation has been completely remodelled to a high specification and is arranged around a bright and voluminous entrance hall, featuring a vaulted ceiling and glass balustrade. The layout flows effortlessly between beautifully proportioned rooms – equally suited for family life or entertaining on a grand scale.

To the rear, the heart of the home is an expansive kitchen/dining/family room with uninterrupted views across the garden and river beyond. Finished with bespoke cabinetry by Oakley Kitchens, the space boasts the UK’s only residential installation of ThinkGlass countertops, a Lacanche professional range cooker, and an impressive suite of integrated Siemens and Fisher & Paykel appliances. A stylish re-fitted utility room sits adjacent, with vaulted ceiling and direct garden access.
Complementing the main living spaces is a dual-aspect sitting room with a Stovax wood-burning stove and views over the gardens, a formal dining room, and a front-aspect study with bespoke display cabinetry and fitted smart blinds. Underfloor heating runs throughout the porcelain-tiled ground floor, while smart home integration – from lighting and heating to security and garage access – ensures effortless control and efficiency.

Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to four generous double bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes. The principal suite spans over 22ft, enjoying serene river views, extensive fitted furniture, and a luxurious en-suite complete with ceiling-mounted rainfall shower and body jets. A second bedroom also benefits from a sleek en-suite, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a high-end family bathroom, all fitted with Villeroy & Boch fixtures and underfloor heating.
Outside, the rear garden is a standout feature – designed as a seamless extension of the living space.

A raised porcelain patio leads to a Millboard-decked terrace, framing a sunken Hot Springs spa (serviced 2025) and an outdoor hot/cold shower with frost protection. The lawn gently slopes down to the water’s edge, offering a tranquil spot to unwind with private seating and direct river frontage.
The entire estate is served by a modernised Klargester waste system, and the property benefits from high-performance insulation, new roofing systems with 15-year warranties, and a range of energy-efficient upgrades throughout.

Hunter fans imported from the US offer silent cooling in each bedroom and study, and bathrooms include Porcelanosa smart toilets with heated seats and wall-mounted control panels.

This remarkable home offers a rare lifestyle opportunity – a cutting-edge interior set against a peaceful riverside backdrop, with a level of privacy and security that is truly exceptional. It is a house that adapts beautifully to the rhythms of daily life while offering a striking setting for entertaining, relaxation, and waterside living – all with no onward chain.
