4 bed detached house for sale

Windmill Road, Mortimer Common, Reading, Berkshire RG7

Noir by David Cliff – Tucked away on Windmill Road in the very heart of Mortimer Common sits this extended and beautifully crafted three/four-bedroom detached cottage, a home that carries that rare blend of heritage charm and everyday practicality. There is a real warmth to the house from the moment you step through the porch, where the entrance hall opens into a characterful, double aspect sitting room complete with a wood-burning stove and views out to both front and rear.

The true heart of the home is the stunning farmhouse-style kitchen and breakfast room. It’s an unusually generous space for a cottage setting and centres around a four-oven gas Aga, with terracotta flooring underfoot adding to the homely feel. Just off the kitchen sits a clever utility cupboard with plumbing neatly tucked away, proving that charm and functionality can work hand in hand. A traditional ground floor bathroom with wood panelling and a white suite adds to the property’s authentic country feel.

Upstairs, the master bedroom enjoys views across the mature rear garden, framed beautifully by French doors opening to a Juliet balcony – the perfect spot to pause with morning coffee. There are two further well-proportioned bedrooms and a fourth smaller room which works beautifully as a study, giving real flexibility for those working from home. A family bathroom completes the first floor.

Outside, the gardens are exceptional. Stretching to over 150 feet, the space has been lovingly maintained with established planting and a traditional brick pathway leading through the garden. There’s a brick-built store with light and power on the way, and at the far end an additional outbuilding, again complete with light and power, giving scope for a studio, workshop or garden retreat.

Mortimer Common remains one of the most desirable village locations in the area, with a real community feel and a wealth of amenities within walking distance. From local shops, coffee stops and pubs to highly regarded schools, recreational facilities and direct rail links to London Paddington and Waterloo, the setting really does tick every box for village life without compromise.
