Nine Mile Ride, Finchampstead, Wokingham, RG40 4ND

A beautifully-private setting, with large plot, gated entrance, and plenty of driveway parking.

Over 1,900 sq ft of versatile space ~ set back from the Nine Mile Ride, and just moments' walk to the breath-taking California Country Park.

The garden is ideal for garden-lovers, the driveway is ample those with many cars and visitors, and the proximity to California will be a huge appeal to those with an active life-style. Pine Lodge also has a fourth / guest bedroom suite downstairs for less-mobile relatives (but this space would also work well for anyone with a therapy business).

Smartly-presented, and with calm neutral tones, this home also has some wonderful entertaining space, including an impressive living room - its dimensions are spacious, but this feel is elevated with double doors, a pair of garden-view windows, and a timeless fireplace as a focal point.

The adjoining dining room is perfectly placed as it connects living room, kitchen and garden (with patio doors leading to the terrace). The kitchen / breakfast room has an integral breakfast bar, classic oak cabinetry, and integrated appliances (including dishwasher and eye-level ovens). It also has a water softener to keep limescale at bay throughout the house, and a filtered drinking water tap.

The upstairs space is balanced, with 1.5 bathrooms and three well-proportioned bedrooms. The landing is a statement piece, with good natural light and space for a snug, books, or a reading corner.

There's a downstairs study with bay window, a separate utility room next to the back door, and a large garage with powered doors for easy access.

A Few Words from Quarters

"Pulling onto the driveway this home gives wonderfully warm first-impressions, and the setting - on the west side of the Nine Mile Ride - makes this a good choice for those with links to Finchampstead, Arborfield, and Barkham.

We particularly love the living room, which effortlessly opens to the dining room for easy entertaining & family gatherings. The garden is quite a treat too, with plenty of mature borders, space for children to play, and a large terrace patio for entertaining. We've had to take photos at the end of a scorching summer, but hopefully they will give you an idea of how secluded and private the plot is.

Some homes just have a 'feeling', and this is usually where there's an easy flow and meticulous upkeep. Walking through Pine Lodge there are plenty of clues that it's been beautifully looked-after (and it's been in the same family for 25 years).

And, with 100 acres of California Country Park to explore (with its nature reserve, play areas, Longmoor Lake and coffee shop), there's a wonderful playground for families of all ages (and all this is walkable in under 5 minutes!). We often see joggers enjoying the fresh air, and there are safe tracks leading to Barkham Village and beyond...

A little way across the road, there's more nature to explore, where tracks lead to the National Trust Simons Wood (a place of outstanding beauty), and - for a Sunday lunch - there's a healthy walk to Finchampstead Village's favourite pub - The Greyhound!

Please get in touch with Nick Harris or Teresa Ling at Quarters Estate Agents, Wokingham, for further details or to discuss viewing arrangements - we're looking forward to showing you around this gorgeous home."
