Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Reading, RG10 :
With 100ft direct River Thames frontage, Herons Creek is situated on idyllic St Patricks Island, a former artists colony. Known for the restful light and calm riverside atmosphere, the area is tucked away from the bustle of modern day life. With an extraordinarily high standard of fittings, decoration and attention to detail, the property has a dazzling display of Italian marble reflecting the owners heritage. The high ceilings, spacious rooms and floor to ceiling windows are reminiscent of a Venetian villa, with views across landscaped gardens to the River. EPC rating C.

Connection to the M4 (J10) via the A329M is approximately 7 miles distant providing access to Heathrow (23 miles) and the motorway network. There is an excellent and varied selection of schooling in the area as well as sporting facilities. There are miles of walking along the Thames Path and over the surrounding countryside and rowing and boating on the River Thames.
