This charming two-bedroom Victorian terrace in Blenheim Gardens offers an honest mix of period character and practical city living. At around 587 sq ft the home is compact but bright, with double glazing, a comfortable open-plan living area and a private rear garden — suited to first-time buyers, students or buy-to-let investors seeking a central Reading location with no onward chain.
Positioned close to the university, Reading town centre and local hospitals, the property benefits from excellent transport links and local amenities. Permit on-street parking and fast broadband make it convenient for commuters and professionals; Reading Station and direct trains to London are within easy reach.
The house is an older mid-terrace built before 1900 with solid brick walls and an assumed lack of cavity insulation. While generally well-presented, it offers clear scope for energy performance improvements and modernisation (heating via mains gas boiler and radiators). Buyers should expect modest living space, a single bathroom, and potential retrofit costs to upgrade insulation or services if desired.
