Set on a corner plot in a quiet cul-de-sac, this three-bedroom detached house in Lower Earley offers solid family accommodation with genuine scope to improve. The ground floor features a large open-plan living/dining room (21'9) that flows to an east-facing rear garden, while the separate kitchen also has garden access. Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a 13'3 principal bedroom, and a single family bathroom.
The property requires full modernisation throughout, giving buyers the chance to update fixtures, finishes and services to their own taste. There is potential to extend subject to planning permission (STPP) and the integral garage (16'4 x 8'1) provides storage or scope for conversion, increasing living space if desired. Driveway parking for three cars and a decent plot add practical value.
Location is a key strength: quiet, secluded setting within easy reach of highly rated schools (including an Outstanding secondary) and local amenities such as shops, restaurants and public transport links into Reading and the M4. Freehold tenure, low crime, very low flood risk and fast broadband make this a pragmatic long-term buy for families or renovators seeking value.
Buyers should note the property is average-sized overall and needs renovation throughout; expect refurb costs and potential planning lead times for extensions. Council tax is moderate. For purchasers wanting to create a refreshed family home in a well-regarded part of Lower Earley, this house offers clear potential to unlock value.
