6 bed terraced house for sale

London Road, Reading RG1

For Sale by Auction on the 8th April 2026 at midday. This substantial townhouse with former HMO use is set out over three floors and presents an excellent investment opportunity. Ideally located east of Reading town centre in the popular Newtown area overlooking Palmer Park, the property offers easy access to Reading town centre, public transport links and local shops. Previously operated as an HMO, the property comprises six letting rooms, two bathrooms, a communal kitchen, and a reception room arranged over three floors. Offering generous internal space and strong potential, it is well-suited for investors seeking to reinstate an HMO (subject to the necessary consents) or explore alternative configurations.
