Summary - 22 DE MONTFORT ROAD READING RG1 8DL
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free three-bed period home a short walk from Reading station and riverside.
Chain-free Victorian mid-terrace with bay-front sitting room
A characterful three-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offered chain-free and ready for a new owner. The house combines period features — bay-front sitting room and feature fireplace — with practical updates such as an updated kitchen with quartz worktops and a large first-floor family bathroom with both bath and walk-in shower. The low-maintenance enclosed rear garden and privacy hedge to the front add outdoor space in a compact plot.
Location is a clear strength: about 0.25 miles from Reading mainline station with fast London links, easy access to the Oracle and riverside walks, plus good local schools and fast broadband options. Residents’ permit parking is available, and mobile signal is excellent — benefits for commuters and first-time buyers seeking convenience and connectivity.
Buyers should note key constraints honestly. The property sits in a medium flood-risk zone (check GOV.UK for current detail), is in a high-crime area relative to local data, and has solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation. There are historic, undocumented changes to the floor plan and purchasers should obtain legal and survey advice. EPC rating D and a single family bathroom may be limiting for some buyers.
Overall, this freehold terrace suits buyers who want a well-located period home with immediate access to transport and amenities, and who are comfortable addressing potential retrofit and legal checks. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout and proximity to the station.
