Description

Situated in the Horncastle area of Reading, this three-bedroom semi-detached house offers a prime opportunity for renovation and investment. Benefiting from proximity to essential amenities including schools, bus routes, and recreational spaces, the property is within a few miles of Junction 12 of the M4 motorway for convenient access to Central London and South Wales. Major transport links are easily accessible with several rail stations located within two miles. The property features two reception rooms, a kitchen, and a double-length garage with its own driveway, alongside a sizeable rear garden. While predominantly double-glazed, the home is currently in considerable disrepair and requires extensive updating and modernization throughout. Notably, there is a self-made basement accessed via a trap door that presents both challenges and potential for creative solutions. With possibilities for further extension subject to necessary consents, this property represents an attractive proposition for both investors and owner-occupiers looking to capitalize on its renovation potential.
