Set just a short walk from Reading town centre and the mainline station, this compact three-bedroom mid-terrace offers a practical, chain-free purchase for a first-time buyer or investor. The ground floor has a living room and an open-plan kitchen/dining area that leads directly to a low-maintenance rear garden. The house is vacant and available now part-furnished, with off-street driveway parking and two further permit bays available to buy.
The property dates from before 1900 and retains Victorian character such as arched window surrounds and high ceilings in parts. It benefits from double glazing (installed post-2002), mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, and gigabit broadband — useful for commuting professionals or tenants. Room sizes are modest (around 700 sqft overall) and the layout suits a compact family or rental use close to schools and local amenities.
Visible condition suggests cosmetic updating rather than major structural work, but buyers should note the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated and the house will require modernisation to maximise value. There is a single bathroom and limited outdoor space. The freehold tenure, vacant possession and no onward chain make this a straightforward purchase with potential for uplift through targeted refurbishment.
