This two-bedroom end-of-terrace in Lower Earley offers a practical, chain-free entry to homeownership. Built in the 1980s and double-glazed after 2002, the house presents sensible fixtures and an average internal size (approx. 655 sqft) ready for cosmetic updating or modest improvement.
The living room benefits from natural light and a focal fireplace, while the small rear garden and off-street parking add everyday convenience. Local schools include several highly rated options (including an Outstanding secondary), and the area is served by good transport links and amenities—buses, leisure facilities and playgrounds are nearby.
Notable running-cost considerations: heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas, and the immediate neighbourhood records higher-than-average crime levels. The plot is small and the exterior shows signs of upkeep and light renovation potential; buyers seeking a low-maintenance move-in may need to budget for improvements.
Priced at £330,000 and offered freehold with no onward chain, this property is well-suited to first-time buyers or small families looking for a manageable home in a very affluent, family-oriented suburb with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
