Summary - 56 DURAND ROAD EARLEY READING RG6 5YS
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious corner plot with strong extension potential for growing families.
No onward chain for a quicker purchase
Set on a generous corner plot in popular Durand Road, this four-bedroom detached house is offered with no onward chain and presents a straightforward purchase for a growing family. The house has two separate reception rooms, a practical kitchen linking to the integral garage, and a useful downstairs WC — the layout suits everyday family life and offers clear scope for adaptation.
The wide side plot is the standout feature: there is genuine potential to extend the property (subject to planning) or reconfigure the garden to suit children's play space and outdoor entertaining. Driveway parking plus an integral single garage add convenience for commuters and families with cars. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working or streaming.
Internally the home is sound but dated in places and will benefit from modernisation to maximise value. Windows and some finishes appear older; buyers should expect cosmetic updating and potential system checks (heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators). The overall internal size is average for a four-bedroom family house, so consider layout changes if more open-plan living is desired.
Practical considerations: council tax is above average for the area, and the property sits in a higher-than-average crime area — factors for budgeting and insurance. Tenure is currently unknown and should be confirmed early in the process. With nearby well-regarded schools and easy access to local amenities, this home suits families seeking a solid base with extension and refurbishment upside.
