3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Skates Drive, Wokingham, Berkshire RG41

Sold prior to marketing - This house really blew us away. Set on a lovely, picturesque road, it’s elegant and tasteful. Arranged over three floors, it’s warm, inviting and offers plenty of space, all finished to a great standard.

‘Skates Drive’ is located on the renowned ‘Emmbrook Place’ development and, in our opinion, is one of the best spots. It’s a modern, well-kept residential street with a quiet, suburban feel. Neat red-brick homes, tidy driveways and landscaped greenery give it a clean, family-friendly atmosphere. With no through traffic, it’s incredibly peaceful. You’re also in catchment for some of the area’s most sought-after schools, including The Holt and Emmbrook, with easy access to the train station and town centre. Cantley Park is also just a stone’s throw away.

The property itself oozes kerb appeal. It is set back and you’ll find a neatly landscaped frontage with mature planting, while the elevated position and Juliette balconies add a touch of character and elegance to the overall look.

Upon entry, you’re welcomed into a wide hallway that leads through to a beautiful open-plan kitchen/reception area, flowing seamlessly out to the garden. It’s a fantastic space for entertaining. The kitchen itself is well thought out, with a wrap-around layout offering generous worktop space, you’ll also find quality built in appliances. The ground floor also benefits from a spacious WC/utility room.

Upstairs, you’ll find the living room, which is a real highlight. Positioned on the first floor, it feels exceptionally homely - there’s something about elevated living spaces that just adds to the cosiness. This one is no exception, with a gorgeous Juliette balcony and large windows that flood the room with natural light while offering lovely views over the surrounding community.
Also on this floor is the smallest of the bedrooms, which still comfortably accommodates a double bed along with additional furniture, as well as a beautifully presented three-piece bathroom. A further standout feature is the additional space off the landing, complete with its own Juliette balcony - ideal as a quiet relaxation spot or a perfect area for a home office setup.

On the top floor, you’ll find the impressive master bedroom, featuring two symmetrically arranged windows that flood the space with natural light, built-in storage and a luxurious three-piece en suite. Bedroom two is also a generously sized double, again benefiting from built-in storage. There is also access to a handy loft space, ideal for neatly storing away suitcases.
The garden is well landscaped, featuring a manageable yet tasteful lawn alongside a patio that enjoys excellent natural sunlight throughout the day. The garden wraps around the rear of the garage, with the current owners making good use of this additional space with private seating. There is also ample room for a hot tub, should you wish to add one, and the south-facing aspect further enhances its appeal.

The garage is double-length, providing excellent storage space and offering real versatility for future use. It could easily be converted, subject to the necessary consents, into a gym, home office, or even a music studio. Positioned to the front of the property, it sits in front of the driveway, which provides off-street parking for two vehicles and benefits from an electric vehicle charging point.
