Summary - 33, ABBEY CLOSE, NEWBURY RG14 7QX
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Flexible layout with annexe and generous parking near town and station.
Detached family home with self-contained two-bedroom annexe on ground floor
A substantial, thoughtfully extended detached home in south Newbury, arranged as a three‑bedroom principal house plus a self-contained two‑bedroom ground‑floor annexe. The main house benefits from a 16' fully fitted kitchen, a 20' sitting room with open fireplace and an adjoining sun room that faces the south‑facing rear garden. The annexe has a newly fitted kitchen/breakfast room, sitting room and shower room — well suited for multigenerational living, long‑term rental, or as additional flexible space.
Externally the property sits on a decent plot with a large gravel driveway providing off‑street parking for several vehicles and a secluded rear patio screened by mature hedging. The house retains practical modern comforts: gas central heating, double glazing (installation date unknown) and pleasant elevated views across Newbury towards Donnington Castle. Location is convenient for Newbury town centre, the railway station (direct to London), and strong local schools including St John’s and St Bartholomew’s.
Notable considerations are factual: council tax is above average for the area and the local crime level is reported as high — both factors to weigh for family buyers. The build dates place the house in the late 1970s/early 1980s and while the accommodation is in generally good, modernised condition the property would benefit from targeted updating in places to maximise value. The annexe offers clear income or occupancy potential but buyers should confirm service arrangements and any soundproofing or access implications.
Overall this is a flexible family home with proven rental/ancillary potential and strong parking and aspect. It will suit buyers seeking immediate usable accommodation with scope to personalise and improve for further value uplift.
