The village is within approximately 2 miles of Bramley Station which goes into Reading, which connects to the London Paddington line and then to the Elizabeth Line. Junction 5 of the M3 is nearby.

A larger plot than many here, this property enjoys a bonus space to the southern eastern side of the house, cleverly landscaped to create a sheltered and private space for BBQ and dining.

To the front of the house there is gravelled parking for three to four cars in front of the double garage.
