Summary - 379 BASINGSTOKE ROAD READING RG2 0JA
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Chain-free three-bed with driveway and extension potential close to Reading amenities.
Three bedrooms with family bathroom upstairs
Set back on a private road in RG2, this three-bedroom semi-detached home combines period character with clear scope to add value. The property has a generous driveway for multiple cars, a decent rear garden and a conservatory, giving practical family living and straightforward parking from day one. The bay-fronted façade and internal room proportions reflect 1930s suburban character; upstairs there are two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a family bathroom.
The house is chain-free and offers scope to extend (subject to planning) — a real opportunity for buyers wanting to increase living space or create an upstairs bathroom/ensuite. Services are conventional (mains gas boiler and radiators) and broadband and mobile reception are strong, making the home ready for modern family life and home working. Local schools, buses, and easy access to Reading town centre and the M4 add practical appeal.
Buyers should note a few straightforward but material items: the property has cavity walls with no added insulation (assumed), the double glazing is older (pre-2002) and the wider area records higher crime and relative deprivation. These factors may mean some immediate retrofit or security investment and should be factored into budgets. Overall, this is a reasonably sized, freehold family home with clear potential for improvement and extension for those willing to invest.
This house will suit first-time buyers wanting a grow-into home, families seeking practical space close to schools and transport, or investors targeting rental demand in the area. Viewings will best serve buyers who prioritise onward improvement potential and convenient commuting links over a fully refurbished finish.
