Fingal Crescent, Spencers Wood, Reading, Berkshire, RG7

The Sellers View...

We have been living in this beautiful village of Spencers Wood for the past 4 years since we purchased this property from David Wilson Homes. Our home is well situated with easy access to the M4, Reading town centre and the countryside around Wokingham.

We love our home in Fingal Crescent where we have created many special memories with friends and family.

The location of the house being in a cul-de-sac means that it is a very quiet and peaceful neighbourhood. We regularly do street parties and BBQs with our neighbours and most have become friends. The house itself being detached has the huge benefit of a very private garden with rear patio doors leading into it. We have extended the patio to provide a larger entertaining area and the rest laid to grass with a plant border for easy maintenance. It is usually visited by blue tits, robins and butterflies, very peaceful and calm space to relax in.

The house itself has plenty of storage with fitted wardrobes in the Master bedroom. We have also added additional shelving in the understairs cabinet effectively converting it into a full pantry cupboard. We have also boarded the loft for additional storage and added a ladder for easy access. Instaloft that executed the loft boarding offer a lifetime guarantee for the work done.

The house is very energy efficient, and it has two thermostats, one upstairs and one downstairs so you don't have to heat the whole house if you don't need to. However, since moving in we made them smarter by replacing them with 2 Hive thermostats. We added white UV Protected Poplar Hardwood Plantation full height shutters to all the front facing windows. We added Harvey Water Softener and Drinking water filter when we moved in to ensure all appliances were protected and increase its life.

We updated the family bathroom by making the half-tiled bathroom a fully tiled one for improved water proofing and added an over-bath shower mixer and glass panel enclosure. We have added a 7kW PodPoint Solo 3 Charger in the driveway that allows you to charge your electric vehicle.

The Agents View...

These homes have been so well thought out, providing everything you need in a family home. What we love about this home is the gorgeous kitchen/breakfast room, which offers a high finish and standard of fittings. Then you flow into the lounge that runs across the back of the home with large double doors onto the garden. The garden itself is very private due to the fortunate position of the home. You have a driveway for two cars and side access, this is where the garage is positioned. The current owners have converted the garage, which now has a separate shower room and one bedroom annex or as its currently used, as am office to work from home. Many families now have two people working from home, making this use of space perfect if you do.

The Area View...

Located in Croft Gardens, Fingal Crescent is a family orientated quiet location. This home in particular is positioned ticked away, where you feel more private and have no properties behind you looking in. You have everything you could need in easy reach. Gorgeous walks through Shinfield with Deaden fields, cut throughs to local shops and Dobbies Garden World. Great local schools, parks and easy driving access to Reading or the motorway.
