Description

Nestled in a serene part of Southcote, this two-bedroom home presents an intriguing opportunity for buyers looking to invest in a property with potential. The open-plan extension at the rear adds valuable living space, while the possibility for further expansion makes this residence particularly appealing for first-time buyers or those wishing to downsize and personalize their living environment. Spread over two levels, the ground floor features an entrance hall, a cozy living room, and a dining area that flows into the kitchen and sunroom—ideal for light renovation to enhance comfort. Upstairs, you will find two generously sized bedrooms and a family bathroom, offering a solid foundation for modernization. The extensive 70ft garden at the back offers ample space for outdoor activities or landscaping projects, complemented by an inviting decking area for entertaining. Off-road parking is also available for multiple vehicles at the front of the house, adding to its practicality. With its convenient proximity—just over 2 miles from Reading Town Centre—and essential amenities like Aldi and Lidl within less than a mile's reach, this home is perfectly positioned for easy living. Local primary schools are within walking distance (Manor Primary 0.6 miles and Southcote Primary 0.7 miles), alongside secondary options such as Blessed Hugh Farringdon and The Wren nearby. This property not only offers comfortable living but also significant potential for enhancement and value growth in a sought-after location.
