Quietly tucked close to Reading town centre, this two-bedroom Victorian terrace offers a rare combination of location and practical benefits. The property is presented in good condition and comes with a private gated parking space to the rear — a valuable asset for central locations where off-street parking is scarce. Chain-free and freehold, it’s ready for occupation or immediate letting.
Interior rooms are modest but bright, with period features such as a fireplace and wood flooring in the living room. The fitted kitchen and contemporary bathroom mean you won’t need major immediate works; a light cosmetic refresh will personalise the home. At about 652 sq ft, the layout suits first-time buyers, couples, or buy-to-let investors seeking central convenience.
Buyers should be aware this is a late-Victorian solid-brick house with no confirmed cavity insulation, so there may be opportunities to improve energy efficiency. The plot is small with limited outdoor space and typical room sizes for terraced town housing. Overall maintenance appears reasonable for the property’s age, though some external wear consistent with Victorian brickwork is visible.
Positioned a short walk from Reading station, the Oracle and local amenities, the house offers immediate everyday convenience and excellent transport links. With good local schools nearby and fast broadband and mobile coverage, it’s a practical, well-located starter home with clear potential to add value through targeted improvements.
