Areas Around Reading We Cover:

Caversham

Sitting on the north bank of the Thames directly across from Reading, Caversham is a much-loved Berkshire suburb with a distinct village identity, its tree-lined streets, independent shops, and riverside walks giving it a warmth and character that sets it apart from the city it borders. Whether your home is one of the area’s elegant Edwardian or Victorian properties or a more contemporary dwelling, our consultants will visit you directly to help with every aspect of window and soft furnishing selection. From blinds and curtains to bespoke fabric choices, we work with you to create spaces that feel considered, cohesive, and entirely personal.

Emmer Green

Tucked into the gentle Chiltern hills just north of Caversham, Emmer Green is a peaceful and well-regarded Berkshire village known for its leafy residential streets, open green spaces, and the quiet sense of community that has long made it a desirable place to call home. We work with homeowners across the village, whatever the age or style of their property, visiting in person to guide the selection of blinds, curtains, and soft furnishings. Our aim is always to help you create rooms that balance practicality with beauty, reflecting both the character of your home and the way you live in it.

Pangbourne

Where the River Pang meets the Thames at the foot of the Chiltern hills, Pangbourne is one of Berkshire’s most picturesque and storied villages, its riverside setting, Victorian and Edwardian architecture, and literary associations — most notably with Kenneth Grahame, who spent his final years here — giving it an enduring charm. Whether you are in a characterful period home or a more modern property in the village, our team will come to you and help you work through the full range of window and soft furnishing options available. We take the time to understand your home, your taste, and the light in your rooms, ensuring every choice feels right.

Goring

Nestled in the gap where the Thames cuts through the Chilterns in one of the most breathtaking stretches of the river, Goring is a Berkshire village of considerable beauty, its flint and brick cottages, weir, and watermill forming a setting that has drawn admirers for generations. We understand that homes here carry a strong sense of place, and whether yours is a traditional village property or a newer home, our consultants will visit you directly to assist with fabric selection, blinds, curtains, and soft furnishings. The result is a home interior that feels as carefully composed and quietly beautiful as its surroundings.

Streatley

Facing Goring across the Thames from the Oxfordshire bank, Streatley is a village of rare tranquillity, its position at the foot of the Berkshire Downs and its collection of handsome period properties giving it a distinguished, unhurried character that is difficult to find elsewhere in the Thames Valley. Whether your home is a long-established village house or something more recently built, we will come to you and guide you through selecting blinds, curtains, and soft furnishings that work with your interiors and your lifestyle. Our consultants bring expertise and a careful eye to every visit, ensuring your rooms feel beautifully finished.

Calcot

A well-established and conveniently positioned village on the western fringe of Reading, Calcot has grown into a thriving residential area while retaining a strong local identity, with a mix of family homes, newer developments, and easy access to the open countryside of the Thames Valley beyond. If you are looking for window or soft furnishings in Calcot, our team will visit you at home to help navigate the full range of options, from fabrics and colours to blinds, curtains, and finishing details. Whatever the style of your property, we will work with you to create interiors that are warm, cohesive, and personal to you.

Stratfield Mortimer

Set in the quietly beautiful countryside of south Berkshire between Reading and Basingstoke, Stratfield Mortimer is a village with deep roots, its Norman church, historic estate lands, and mix of traditional and more recent housing giving it a layered, genuine character that is easy to appreciate. Whether you live in a period property that would benefit from a thoughtful refresh or a newer home looking to establish its own identity, our consultants will come directly to you, helping you select from a range of blinds, curtains, fabrics, and soft furnishings. We work around your home, your taste, and your daily life to create spaces that feel exactly right.

Frequently Asked Questions 

 

How do I know which curtain or blind style will work in my home? 

That’s exactly what our home consultation is for. Our team has over 350 years of experience helping Reading homeowners choose the right window furnishings for their space. 

When we approach our work we consider several different elements. For example, the amount of natural light, the height of your ceilings, your existing colour palette, and how you use the room day to day. You can browse our inspiration gallery to get a sense of the styles we work with.

Do you handle measuring and fitting, or do I need to arrange that separately? 

We handle everything. Measuring and fitting are both included as part of our full service. There’s nothing for you to organise or coordinate yourself. 

We visit your home twice: once for the consultation and measure, and once for the installation. Everything in between is taken care of by our team.

Can you work with unusual or awkward window shapes? 

That’s one of our specialities. Made to measure is specifically designed for windows that don’t fit standard sizing, whether that be bay windows, arched windows or circular windows. 

Unusually tall or wide spans are also well within our expertise. If your windows have been difficult to dress in the past, a consultation with our team is a great place to start. Contact us to arrange yours.

What makes Sarah Wooldridge Design different from an interior design shop in Reading? 

When you work with us, you’re working directly with experienced curtain specialists. Everything we make here at Sarah Woolridge Design is handcrafted to your exact specifications. 

We also offer a genuinely personal service. You’ll deal with the same people from your first enquiry through to your final fitting, and we take real pride in getting every detail right.
