For Sale4 Bedroom House in River Gardens, Purley on Thames, Reading, Berkshire, RG8£800,000

Thames View is an exceptional riverside home offering circa 1,850 sq ft of beautifully considered living space. Designed with calm and simplicity in mind, the interiors flow effortlessly, with minimalist stone flooring running through the principal reception room and kitchen on the ground floor. The reception room enjoys uninterrupted river views, framed by full-height glazed doors opening directly onto the rear garden. The kitchen is a standout feature, fitted with bespoke Corian and marine-grade stainless steel units on castors, and equipped with high-quality Neff and Smeg appliances. Two full-height French doors open onto the front garden, again drawing the river into view. A generous ground-floor bathroom adds both practicality and flexibility. Upstairs, the principal bedroom suite offers a dressing room and en-suite shower room, along with direct access to a private balcony overlooking the river — a tranquil retreat with ever-changing views. Four further well-proportioned rooms are arranged on this floor, one with its own en-suite; the fifth bedroom is ideally suited for use as a home office or study, all benefitting from excellent natural light through large windows. Outside, the property continues to impress. To the rear, beautifully finished ipê decking leads to a broad terraced area, currently used as a badminton court. Mature silver birch trees provide privacy and a sense of seclusion, while two discreet sheds offer practical storage for bicycles and garden equipment, complemented by dedicated wall racking for kayaks. At the front, the decking extends through a striking Ann Pearce–designed garden, guiding you down to the riverbank and a 9-metre private pontoon. The house benefits from heat recovery ventilation, an EPC rating of C, and falls within Council Tax band G. A rare opportunity to enjoy refined yet playful riverside living in a truly special setting.
