Spacious family house with garden, garage and strong transport links for easy commuting.
- Three bedrooms with family bathroom upstairs
- Generous rear garden and decent plot size
- Driveway parking plus single garage
- Walking distance to Reading town centre and station
- Electric storage heating; likely higher running costs
- Cavity walls without insulation (assumed)
- Double glazing fitted before 2002 (older units)
- First time on market in over 30 years; scope to modernise
Offered to the market for the first time in over 30 years, this three-bedroom semi-detached home sits within easy walking distance of Reading town centre and the mainline station. Living space includes a living room, dining room, sunroom and downstairs WC, with a generous rear garden, driveway and garage — a practical family layout with scope to modernise.
The property was built in the late 1960s/early 1970s and benefits from double glazing (installed before 2002) and solar panels. It is freehold with a decent plot and straightforward outdoor space for children or gardening. Local schools include an outstanding junior school and a mix of primary and secondary options, making the area well-suited to families.
Buyers should note this home retains electric storage heating and cavity walls with no installed insulation, which can mean higher running costs and an opportunity for energy-efficiency improvements. The glazing is older and the interior would benefit from updating throughout — excellent potential for refurbishment to add value.
This is a sensible purchase for a family seeking proximity to transport links or an investor targeting rental demand in central Reading. The combination of location, garden, parking and garage gives clear practical advantages while leaving room for modernisation to improve comfort and reduce bills.
