House For Rent £1,250
York Road, Reading
This mid-terrace home is bright and fresh, offering unfurnished accommodation across 3 floors and under 10 minutes walk to Reading Mainline Station as well as being nestled perfectly between Central Reading & Caversham inc the Riverside. Convenient location, double glazing, gas central heating, first floor separately approached bathroom, low maintenance rear garden & garage, what more could you ask for, and if you are a family that includes a well behaved 4 legged member they are also welcome too (subject to terms & conditions).
As you enter the property you come into the entrance hall which leads to both reception rooms and the stairs to the first floor
The front reception room, is beautifully light and airy thanks to the feature bay window, and also benefits from fresh decoration
Rear reception, this room is an ideal living or dining space, playroom or home office or a combination of all, located next to the kitchen, it has a rear aspect window overlooking the side return utility space and back garden, there is also a spacious understairs cupboard which houses all the meters and fuse board, and there is still ample room for all your essential household items that we all store under our stairs.
Kitchen - Easy clean ceramic tiled flooring, eye and base level units & breakfast bar. The kitchen is currently equipped with fridge/freezer, gas oven with gas hob & microwave
Stairs & First Floor Landing - Again benefiting from fresh decoration the stairs give access to the first floor landing leading to 2 double bedrooms, bathroom & stairs to the Loft room.
Bedroom 3 - At the rear of the house, although the smallest of the three bedrooms, is still a double but would make an ideal childrens bedroom with space to play, a great office or a guest bedroom.
Bathroom- If you like a spacious, fresh clean bathroom then this one will definitely not disappoint, occupying what would have been a large double bedroom once upon a time, this room has been converted into a contemporary clean & spacious bathroom, with w.c, hand basin, bath with electric shower over and glass shower screen
Bedroom 1 - Occupying the full width of the front of the house this large double bedroom enjoys natural light from the double front aspect double glazed windows, and again benefits from full redecoration
Stairs to loft room - Another double bedroom at the top of the house would also make a great office or guest room if you want the peace and quiet of being away from the rest of the house. There is also a large airing cupboard
Outside: A small but perfectly formed courtyard garden, mainly paved, a great space to relax, and if you are green fingered there is plenty of room for free standing pots and planters to create a splash of colour or even grow your own vegetables. There is a side access gate, so no need to bring outdoor things through the house, and there is a side door into the garage.
