5 bed detached house for sale

Hogmoor Lane, Hurst, Reading, Berkshire RG10

A beautifully appointed five bedroom home with a large mature garden.

Description
Badgers Lodge is an exceptional five-bedroom detached home, discreetly positioned on a mature plot of just under two-thirds of an acre. Originally constructed in 1994 to an exacting specification, the property has since been thoughtfully extended and enhanced by the current owners to create a turnkey family home, located less than two miles from Twyford Station with direct rail links to London.

The entrance hall opens into a generous, double-aspect sitting room featuring a working wood-burning fireplace and French doors leading to the rear terrace. A separate study provides an ideal space for home working, while a cosy snug also enjoys direct access to the garden.

At the heart of the home lies a stunning open-plan kitchen, designed for both family living and entertaining. This impressive space has been extended to maximise views over the landscaped rear garden and is crowned by a striking pitched glass orangery, flooding the area with natural light through floor-to-ceiling windows. The kitchen incorporates a central island, dining area, and relaxed seating space, complemented by a beautiful sand limestone floor, sleek monochrome cabinetry, and quartz work surfaces. Adjoining the kitchen is a practical utility room and a formal dining room for more intimate occasions.

Upstairs, five well-proportioned bedrooms and three bathrooms await. The principal suite boasts bespoke wooden wardrobes and a contemporary en-suite with both bath and shower. A second bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while a stylish family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. Throughout, the home is finished with solid wood panelled doors, and the staircase features a bespoke floral spindle design for a refined, modern touch.

Outside
Approached via wooden gates on Hogmoor Lane, the property enjoys a shingled driveway with ample parking and a double garage with remote electric doors, offering scope for conversion into an annexe (subject to planning consent).

The rear garden is a true highlight, extending to approximately 0.63 acres and framed by mature trees, hedgerows, and vibrant borders. Predominantly laid to lawn, the level plot is perfect for family life, complemented by a generous terrace and a pathway leading to an additional seating area. Its west-facing orientation ensures an abundance of afternoon sunshine throughout the year.
