Why the owner loves the property:
When we first moved into Castle Hill back in 1997 we never imagined we’d still be here nearly 30 years later; the house quickly become much more than just a home.
From the beginning we were drawn to its generous proportions and historical charm. Initially it offered more than enough space for the two of us and then when our sons came along it evolved along with our growing family. We’ve watched the boys grown from babies into young men and create their own living spaces here and they, especially, love the energy of town centre living.
It’s been very convenient being located a short stroll away from the shops, bars and restaurants and of course, the close proximity of Reading train station is a huge bonus, especially when we were commuting into London.
Despite its central location, the house and gardens have always felt like a peaceful retreat. With the high ceilings, period features and light flowing through the rooms it’s cosy in winter and airy in summer. More than this, the sense of history has been a constant comfort and there’s genuine pride in having had the privilege to be custodians of one of Reading’s notable Regency homes.
As we now prepare for our own next chapter, we will forever be grateful for the memories made here, and hope new owners will find similar joy, comfort and meaning in this remarkable and very special property
