This Victorian semi offers genuine character and an unusually long rear garden — circa 130ft (40m+) — ideal for growing families, gardeners or buyers seeking future extension potential. The house is chain-free and arranged over two floors with an open-plan living/dining room, modern kitchen, utility/cloakroom and two bedrooms served by a generous four-piece bathroom.
Period features such as bay windows, original fireplaces and engineered wood floors are matched with contemporary fittings including integrated kitchen appliances and plantation shutters. Practical extras include off-street parking for one vehicle, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, making the home well suited to remote workers or commuters heading into Reading.
There is scope to extend to the side, rear or into the loft (subject to planning and building regulations) which adds clear value for buyers prepared to invest. Note the house is of solid brick construction with no known cavity insulation (assumed), so upgrading wall insulation could be needed during any refurbishment.
Read the location facts plainly: the property sits in Tilehurst Village close to primary and secondary schools, local amenities and bus routes, with Reading town centre and the M4 within sensible driving distance. Crime levels are reported above average for the area — an important consideration for buyers — and any planned alterations will require the usual consents.
