DESCRIPTION/LOCATION: Park Avenue is undoubtedly an exceptional and traffic free location in Wokingham Town Centre. This house has been in the same ownership for over fifty years and has been extended and improved during that time. The opportunity for further improvement and extension will no doubt excite all genuine buyers. An important feature is the garage in the front garden and also the driveway with good off street parking.
The railway station is within four hundred yards and the town centre including Elms Field, a similar distance. There are so many important characteristics including one peaceful setting with no through traffic. Train services on the Reading to London (Waterloo) line and also to Guildford/Gatwick. From Reading Station or Twyford just to the north there are services between the west of England and London (Paddington) and shortly the new Crossrail service will be available from both of those stations. Schools – we doubt any area has a better reputation for schools with many families moving to Wokingham to take advantage of the five good or better Oftsed rated Secondary Schools and an abundance of good Primary Schools. In addition, there are good Private/Public Schools in the area including Holme Grange, Ludgrove, Luckley Oakfield and Reddam as well as a little further away in Reading Abbey School for Girls, Reading Boys School, Kendrick County Girls School and Queens Anne’s School for Girls. Roads – the M4 passes just to the north of Wokingham with two access points leading to junction 10 or via a series of dual carriageways to the M3, Junction 3 at Bagshot. Airports – Heathrow is a little over more than twenty minutes and Gatwick about sixty minutes.
