Period character, garden office and easy access to Reading station — ideal for families or home workers.
Victorian mid-terrace with three bedrooms and two bathrooms
This welcoming Victorian mid-terrace on Elgar Road offers practical family living close to Reading town centre. The ground-floor open-plan living/dining room is bright and flows to a small enclosed garden with a substantial garden office — ideal for remote work or storage. Two bathrooms and three bedrooms, including an en-suite arrangement between two upstairs doubles, provide flexible accommodation for families or sharers.
The house is freehold and sits in an inner-city, well-connected location with Reading main station, universities and hospitals within easy reach. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are reported strong, supporting home working and streaming. Off-street parking is available with resident permit parking nearby, and council tax is described as affordable.
Built before 1900 with solid brick walls and traditional period features, the property is in generally good condition but retains older construction characteristics. There is no confirmed wall insulation and some buyers may want to commission a survey and consider improvements such as insulation, window/doors checks and routine updating to heating or electrics as required. The plot is small, so outdoor space is limited compared with larger suburban gardens.
Overall this mid-terrace will suit a small family, professionals or investors seeking a period home with a useful garden office and excellent access to town amenities. It presents immediate liveability with clear scope for targeted refurbishment to increase comfort and value.
