Summary - 24 CANNON STREET READING RG1 7PH
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Steps from Reading station; ideal starter or buy-to-let with renovation potential.
Two double bedrooms, separate lounge and kitchen/diner
This traditional mid-terrace offers a compact, sensible layout with two double bedrooms, separate lounge and kitchen/diner across approximately 623 sq ft. Period touches such as a Victorian fireplace add character in the smaller living room, while the kitchen and bathroom are functional but show a dated finish.
The property is offered freehold with no onward chain and sits within easy walking distance of Reading town centre and the mainline station. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make it practical for working commuters, and nearby schools include two rated Good and one Outstanding primary.
Buyers should be aware of several practical considerations: the plot is very small with limited outdoor space, the solid brick walls appear to have no added insulation, and the double glazing was installed before 2002. The immediate area scores as higher-crime and more deprived than average, so security and local environment will be important factors.
For a first-time buyer this home represents a manageable purchase close to transport and amenities, with scope to modernise the kitchen and bathroom and improve energy performance. For an investor it offers straightforward letting potential given location and connectivity, though returns will depend on refurbishment spend and local market considerations.
