Description

This unique detached four-bedroom home, situated along the picturesque riverside in Caversham, presents a rare opportunity for renovation enthusiasts and investors alike. Built in the 1970s, this property has been held by the same family for over four decades and is now ready to welcome new owners with a vision. With over 2,500 square feet of living space, the layout optimally uses its scenic location with an upper floor dedicated to entertaining and leisure. The L-shaped sitting room boasts a large fireplace and stunning river views through picture windows, complemented by French doors that open onto a generous balcony — ideal for enjoying the serene surroundings. The expansive kitchen/dining area seamlessly connects to both the living space and balcony, while a snug or guest bedroom along with a cloakroom on this level offer added convenience. The ground floor features four spacious bedrooms alongside two bathrooms, providing excellent potential for reconfiguration to suit modern living needs. Two of these bedrooms lead directly onto the patio and garden, enhancing indoor-outdoor connectivity. The gardens are especially appealing, extending down to the river's edge with private mooring opportunities — perfect for water-based leisure activities right from your home. Located within walking distance of Reading's mainline station, Caversham enjoys excellent transport links plus a vibrant local community filled with shops and restaurants. This property stands out as an investment opportunity offering significant potential for remodeling or even expanding (subject to planning permission), allowing you to create a tailored riverside retreat that reflects contemporary tastes.
