Description

Note from the Homeowner:

"This property has been a fantastic investment for us, providing a solid rental income over the years. Its location has always been a huge draw for tenants, being so close to local shops, the hospital, and the university. The west-facing garden is a real bonus, and the overall convenience of the area makes it a very appealing place to live. We're only selling as part of a portfolio restructure, and we're confident it will continue to be a great asset for its next owner, whether you're looking for a new home or a smart investment."

Alex's Best Bits:

1. West-Facing Garden: This is a real gem. It gets loads of afternoon and evening sun, and with the astro turf, it's super low maintenance. Plus, you've got that handy covered area and an extra outside WC, which is brilliant for summer BBQs or those busy mornings. The brand new fencing adds a nice touch of privacy too.

2. Location - You're a 2-minute stroll from local shops, 5min walk top the River Kennet, 0.6 miles from RBH, 1 mile from Reading University, and just 1.2 miles from Reading Station. Whether you're commuting, studying, or just popping out for milk, it's all on your doorstep.

3. Sale-Ready: We've already got the searches pre-ordered for you. This means we're all set for a quicker, smoother sale, taking some of the usual stress out of the process.

Stepping inside, you'll find a traditional layout with two reception rooms, giving you plenty of space to play with. The front reception room could even work as a third bedroom, offering flexibility for families or those needing extra space, thanks to the hallway layout. The gas central heating keeps things nice and cosy. Upstairs, you've got two good-sized bedrooms with original period fireplaces adding to the charm and, importantly for a Victorian terrace, an upstairs bathroom. No more traipsing downstairs in the middle of the night!

While it's perfectly comfortable as is, the property offers an opportunity to put your own stamp on a property in a convenient location.

Area Guide:

  • Local Shops: Just a 2-minute walk away for your daily essentials.
  • Reading Station: Approximately 1.2 miles, offering excellent rail links.
  • Royal Berkshire Hospital (RBH): Around 0.6 miles, very convenient.
  • Reading University: Roughly 1 mile, ideal for students or staff.
  • 5 min walk to River Kennet

This home is a fantastic opportunity for first-time buyers or anyone looking for a well-located, characterful property in Reading. It's also a proven solid investment. Come and see for yourself!
