A Rare Riverside Opportunity with Incredible Potential

A characterful three-bedroom bay-fronted terrace with a wonderful River Kennet outlook, private garden and exciting scope to create a truly special home.

Some homes stand out for their size or specification. Others stand out because of their setting - and 164 Elgar Road is undoubtedly one of them.

Backing directly onto the River Kennet, this attractive bay-fronted terrace offers a rare combination of period character, generous living space, a private garden and genuine potential for modernisation.

The accommodation provides a strong foundation for a stylish family home, with a particularly impressive open-plan living and dining space creating a natural hub for everyday life and entertaining. There are three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a separate kitchen, while the property's elevated riverside outlook gives the rear of the house an exceptionally appealing feel.

The property would benefit from modernisation and some repair, but this is an opportunity to put your own stamp on a home with an enviable setting. For buyers prepared to undertake the work, there is considerable scope to create something individual while retaining the character and charm of the existing property.

A Garden with a Difference

The private rear garden is a real highlight.

Backing directly onto the River Kennet, it offers a peaceful and unusually attractive outlook rarely found in a town setting. Whether creating a sociable outdoor entertaining area, a landscaped garden or simply somewhere to sit beside the water, there is enormous potential to make the most of this unique position.

The property offers the best of both worlds - a tranquil riverside setting while remaining conveniently positioned for Reading town centre and its extensive range of shops, restaurants, bars and leisure facilities.

Reading station provides excellent commuter connections, including fast services to London Paddington, while the surrounding area offers easy access to a wide range of amenities and transport links.

For buyers looking for a home with character, potential and a location that genuinely sets it apart, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
