Open house on Sunday 8th March - call now to book your private slot!
Some houses are ready to move straight into. Others are waiting for someone with imagination. This is the second type.
Tucked away on a quiet residential crescent in ever-popular Shinfield, this two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow sits on a generous plot with driveway parking, garage, and a private rear garden. It is being offered to the market with no onward chain - which means decisions can be made quickly, and plans can begin immediately.
Inside, the story is clear. The sitting room is well proportioned and bright, two double bedrooms sit to the front and middle of the footprint, and the kitchen, sun room and conservatory stretch out towards the garden. There is also a useful side store and detached garage. Everything works, but everything needs updating. And that is precisely where the opportunity lies.
The footprint offers obvious scope to reconfigure. The side access and garage open up options. The plot width allows you to think bigger. This is not just cosmetic modernisation - this is a genuine chance to add significant value.
Outside, the garden offers privacy and a blank canvas. Enough lawn to landscape properly. Enough space to extend. Enough potential to create something entirely different.
Shinfield continues to be one of the most strategically placed villages on the south side of Reading. You are minutes from the M4 (Junction 11) - ideal for commuters heading to London, Heathrow or the West Country. Green Park business district and the Madejski area are nearby.
Shinfield village centre offers everyday amenities, local pubs and convenience stores.
The area is well regarded for schooling and sits within easy reach of Reading town centre and mainline station. It is quiet enough to feel residential. Connected enough to be practical.
Homes with genuine development potential in Shinfield rarely sit around.
