Loddon Drive, Wargrave, Reading, Berkshire, RG10

Cape Farewell occupies one of the most picturesque locations on the River Thames — standing on a stunning peninsula of grounds where the River Loddon meets the River Thames, offering unique and breathtaking river views.

Accessed from a generous parking area with garaging, a private footbridge takes you over the Loddon and into the main grounds, stretched out along the banks of the Thames & Loddon. The property has been owned by the same family since the 1940’s so given the length of ownership, modernising and updating will be required.

Spanning an impressive footprint, the ground floor features a grand flow of entertaining and living areas. At one end, a stunning bay-fronted reception room creates a statement space, ideal for formal entertaining or relaxed family living. Moving through, multiple bedrooms are arranged thoughtfully for privacy and comfort, including a generous principal bedroom suite with en-suite facilities. A well-equipped kitchen, two utility rooms, and an elegant dining room cater to both daily living and larger gatherings. The far side of the house boasts a show-stopping dual reception room with bay windows and direct access to the garden and riverfront, providing a perfect backdrop for summer evenings or serene morning coffee.
Upstairs, the home continues to impress with a spacious reception room, a kitchenette and two additional bedrooms of which feature characterful eaves and riverside charm. A family bathroom completes the first-floor offering, making it ideal for guests or multigenerational living.
A self-contained cottage sits nearby, ideal for guest accommodation, staff quarters, or a holiday let. It includes a sitting room, kitchen, two bedrooms, and a bathroom, offering both comfort and independence. It will require significant works to bring back up to scratch.
The estate is complete with a spacious garage, offering ample storage or workspace potential. The grounds gently slope toward the water, providing exceptional river frontage and a truly idyllic setting.
