Compact city living close to transport, amenities and fast broadband.
Three bedrooms and three bathrooms, useful for sharers or rental income
A compact Victorian mid-terrace arranged over multiple levels, this freehold 3-bedroom house combines period character with contemporary living. The ground-floor open-plan kitchen-dining area is bright and practical, with wood flooring, a lantern window and patio doors opening onto a small rear garden — a useful outdoor space for city living. The property benefits from double glazing (installed post-2002), mains gas central heating and three bathrooms, a useful layout for sharers or a buy-to-let configuration.
Set in a cosmopolitan student and professional neighbourhood (RG1), the location delivers excellent transport links, fast broadband and strong mobile signal — factors that support high rental demand. Local amenities, shops and leisure facilities are all close by, and Reading School (Outstanding) is nearby, adding appeal for families and professional tenants. The total internal area is approximately 818 sq ft, suitable for those seeking a compact, city-centre home or an investment with straightforward tenant appeal.
Buyers should note the house is older (built before 1900) with original solid brick walls and no assumed cavity insulation; upgrading wall insulation could be advisable to improve comfort and running costs. Outdoor space is limited (small plot and minimal front garden), and room sizes are generally small to average, so families seeking large rooms or generous gardens may find it constrained. Overall, this home offers easy-to-manage accommodation in a convenient city location with clear scope for energy improvements and rental potential.
