Freehold two-bed Victorian home with garden and home office, walking distance to the Oracle.
Two bedrooms and two bathrooms, practical town-centre layout
A well-located two-bedroom end-of-terrace in central Reading, ideal for first-time buyers wanting town-centre convenience. The house occupies a decent plot with a good-sized enclosed rear garden and a built-in home office/study — practical for remote working or hobby use.
Internally the layout is sensible: living room, dining room, kitchen and ground-floor shower room, with two bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. The property is presented with some modern touches (wood flooring, a refitted living room style) but retains period character from its early 20th-century build.
Practical points to note: the brick walls are likely uninsulated and the double glazing dates from before 2002, so improving thermal efficiency could be needed. On-street permit parking serves the house; there is no off-street parking. The local area shows higher-than-average crime and relative deprivation, though transport links, the Oracle and mainline station are within easy reach.
Council Tax Band B keeps ongoing costs lower than many town-centre homes. For buyers seeking a central, freehold property with garden and home-office space, this offers strong short-term usability and medium-term potential once energy efficiency improvements are made.
