4 Bedroom Detached House

Grapevine Estate Agents offer to the market a substantial detached family home occupying a generous plot of approximately 1.82 acres in the desirable rural village of Waltham St Lawrence. Approached via a gated entrance with a sweeping driveway leading to a double garage, the property is set well back from the road and enjoys a wonderful sense of space and seclusion. The extensive rear garden, stretching to around 666 feet in length, is a particular highlight, offering a mix of formal lawns, mature trees, landscaped areas and an outdoor swimming pool with surrounding terrace – a perfect setting for entertaining and family life.

The house itself provides over 3,300 sq. ft. of accommodation (including garage), with well-proportioned reception rooms, a large kitchen/breakfast room, a conservatory overlooking the gardens, and four bedrooms arranged over the first floor. Both of the largest bedrooms benefit from their own en suite bathrooms, with the master also benefitting from a walk-in wardrobe, while the remaining two double bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.

The house provides comfortable family accommodation as it stands, whilst also offering tremendous scope to improve and enlarge. Planning permission has already been granted to extend and remodel the main residence (Ref: 23/02250/FULL), increasing the accommodation to approximately 406 sq m / 4,370 sq ft, together with consent for the conversion of the existing garage. Additional permissions include a new triple garage (9.1m x 6m, 54.6 sq m / 588 sq ft – Ref: 23/01726/CPD) and the demolition and replacement of an ancillary building with a new structure measuring 11.3m x 4.5m, 50.85 sq m / 547 sq ft (Ref: 24/00626/CPD). Beyond this, the size and layout of the grounds present further potential for division, creating opportunities for additional new build dwellings, or alternatively, the property could be demolished and redeveloped entirely, subject to the necessary consents.

Waltham St Lawrence is an historic and picturesque village surrounded by beautiful Berkshire countryside, with a thriving community centred around its 12th-century parish church and renowned village pub, The Bell Inn. The village benefits from an idyllic setting yet is exceptionally well connected. Twyford station, just a short drive away, offers direct services to London Paddington and fast connections via the Elizabeth Line into the West End, City and Canary Wharf. The M4, M40 and M25 motorways are also within easy reach, making for convenient road links to Heathrow Airport, Reading and central London.

Families are well catered for with a selection of excellent local schools, both state and independent. These include Waltham St Lawrence Primary School within the village itself, along with well-regarded options in nearby Twyford, Reading and Maidenhead.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a property of such size and potential in one of Berkshire’s most sought-after village settings – a home that not only offers generous family living today but also significant future possibilities.
