Summary - 86 GEORGE STREET READING RG1 7NT
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Convenient three-bedroom home for first-time buyers or city investors.
Chain-free freehold central location near Reading Station
Set in Central Reading, this three-bedroom Edwardian terrace offers an immediately liveable layout close to Reading Station and town-centre amenities. The property is chain-free and freehold, with two reception rooms and a compact modern kitchen that will suit first-time owners or buy-to-let buyers wanting city-centre convenience.
The house retains period street appeal with a brick façade and chimney stacks while the interior mixes traditional proportions with a recently fitted kitchen. accommodation totals approximately 865 sq ft over multiple storeys, with one family bathroom and on-street parking. Broadband and mobile signal are reported as strong — useful for home working.
Buyers should note material considerations: the house is likely to have solid brick external walls with no built-in insulation (as originally constructed) and glazing dates are unknown. The area is classified as deprived with a high local crime rate, which may affect insurance and resale in the short term. There is limited outdoor space and a small plot size.
This property suits a first-time buyer seeking central access and a character home to personalise, or an investor targeting city-centre lets near transport links. Its chain-free status and modern kitchen reduce immediate refurbishment needs, but further improvements (insulation, possible double-glazing upgrades, and security measures) would add value and comfort.
