Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom terraced house in Reading’s Abbey ward presents a mixed bag. Its location is a strong point, offering easy access to Reading town centre, excellent transport links (Reading and Reading West train stations are within walking distance), and several well-regarded schools. The proximity to amenities and transport is a significant advantage for families and commuters.
The property’s condition is acceptable but not outstanding. The kitchen and bathrooms appear modern and well-maintained, while other areas could benefit from some modernisation or redecoration. The overall impression is that some cosmetic updates would significantly enhance its appeal.
The inclusion of a small, enclosed rear garden is a welcome addition, providing some outdoor space, although it is not expansive.
The asking price of £350,000 requires further analysis. While it falls within the range of comparable properties in the area, a lack of precise square footage data for those properties makes a definitive price-per-square-foot comparison difficult. However, given the property’s location, condition, and the limited garden space, the price appears to be in line with the market, neither exceptionally high nor exceptionally low. A potential buyer should compare this property to others in the area to determine if it represents good value for their needs.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
