Summary - 39, BARNWOOD CLOSE, READING RG30 1BY
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
South-facing garden, garage and driveway — good commuter links and refurbishment upside.
Chain-free freehold three-bedroom mid-terrace ready for renovation
A compact three-bedroom mid-terrace set in West Reading, offered chain-free and freehold. The property needs renovation but presents clear scope to add value for first-time buyers or investors prepared to modernise. The layout includes a lounge, kitchen/dining area and three upstairs bedrooms with one family bathroom.
Practical benefits include a private south-facing garden that receives good sunlight, a private driveway and a nearby garage for parking. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, flood risk is very low and local schools and transport links (including Reading West) are within easy reach — useful for commuters and families.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the home requires renovation throughout, heating is by electric storage heaters, walls are cavity construction with assumed no insulation, and glazing dates are unknown. Crime in the immediate area is recorded as very high and the overall plot and interior space are small; these factors affect suitability and resale considerations.
For a first-time buyer this is an opportunity to create a personalised home close to amenities and transport; for an investor it offers refurbishment potential to increase rental income or sale value. Practical costs and timing for insulation, heating upgrades and other repairs should be factored into any offer.
