The Sellers View
What we’ve loved most about living here is the perfect balance of countryside, convenience, and community. Set at the quiet end of a no-through road, with barely any passing traffic, it’s been such a peaceful and safe spot to raise our family. We’ve enjoyed lovely views over a local farmer’s field at the front, and there are beautiful countryside walks just moments away.

One of the biggest benefits has been the location. Both the local primary and secondary schools are within a 15-minute walk, making school runs simple and stress-free. The village leisure centre is just as close, offering swimming, fitness classes, and other activities we’ve used regularly. There's even a field with swings and a nearby play park just a few minutes away, which has been brilliant with younger children.

The village itself has such a warm, welcoming feel. We’ve loved getting involved in community events throughout the year—whether it’s summer pop-ups, Christmas celebrations, or the village fayre, there’s always something happening. Being able to walk to everything has really helped us feel connected, and it's that strong community spirit that’s encouraged us to look for our next home right here in Burghfield.

This house has been a truly happy and practical place to live, and we hope the next owners will enjoy it every bit as much as we have.

The Agents View
This is a brilliant opportunity for anyone looking for a well built home they can truly make their own. Whether you are a couple just starting out or a young family on the move, this place could suit you down to the ground.

The entrance porch means you are not stepping straight into the living room from the front door — a small touch that makes a big difference in how the home feels. It also gives you somewhere to stash coats and muddy boots, and there is a downstairs loo as well.

The living room is a generous size and flows nicely into the dining area, creating a sociable open space. From here, you have access to the kitchen, and out the back the garden has been recently landscaped to make the most of the space. It is well laid out with a secure play area for children and pets, and even has a handy door into the garage.

Upstairs, there are two doubles and a single, though the single is larger than most and would comfortably work as a home office or nursery. The bathroom has been recently refitted with a smart and neutral design, and the boiler was replaced at the end of 2023.

Out front, there is driveway parking for three cars with ease, and the gravel area could also be converted into extra parking. The sellers have looked into this before so it is more than just a vague idea.

All in all, this is a solid family home with loads of potential in a lovely village setting. If that sounds like your kind of thing, I would strongly suggest you come and take a look.

Southwood Gardens is ideally situated for families, offering great access to local amenities and well-regarded schools.

For broader connections, Aldermaston and Theale stations (12 and 10 minutes by car respectively) provide direct services to London Paddington at various times throughout the day. Junction 12 of the M4 is also around 12 minutes away, depending on traffic.
