Set on a quiet terrace in a cosmopolitan student and professional area, this Victorian three-bedroom mid-terrace blends period character with a recent contemporary kitchen-dining extension. The open-plan kitchen with a lantern window and patio doors brings generous natural light to the heart of the home, making it ideal for social cooking and informal entertaining.
At about 818 sq ft, rooms are compact but well-arranged across multiple storeys, with three bathrooms adding everyday convenience for flat‑sharing or a growing household. The property benefits from double glazing fitted post-2002 and a mains-gas boiler with radiator heating for reliable warmth.
Outdoors there is a small, low-maintenance garden — useful for outdoor seating but not a large lawn or play area. The terrace sits within easy reach of local shops, cafes and strong transport links into Reading town centre, making commutes and amenities straightforward. Nearby schools include Reading School (Outstanding) and other local options.
Buyers should note the house was built before 1900 with solid brick walls and assumed lack of cavity insulation; upgrading thermal insulation could be needed to improve comfort and running costs. Overall this freehold terrace suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a well-located, characterful home with scope for targeted energy improvements.
