4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Helston Gardens, Reading RG2

**First Viewings Saturday 15th August - By Appointment Only**

Set within a residential cul-de-sac in South Reading, this substantially extended four-bedroom semi-detached home offers flexible family accommodation, two bathrooms, off-road parking and an easy-to-maintain rear garden.

A two-storey extension completed in 2011 has added valuable space across both floors, creating three well-proportioned bedrooms, a versatile fourth bedroom and an impressive family kitchen/diner.

The entrance porch opens into the hallway, with the living room positioned at the front of the property. Two windows provide plenty of natural light, while fitted shelving and storage make good use of the available space.

At the rear is the heart of the home: A generous kitchen/diner measuring approximately 19'2" by 15'11". It offers a good range of fitted cabinetry and work surfaces, with clearly defined areas for cooking, dining and family life. Wide glazed doors open directly onto the garden, creating a natural connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.

A ground-floor bathroom with a full-length bath provides useful flexibility for a larger household. Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a comfortable double with substantial fitted wardrobes. Two further bedrooms can also accommodate double beds, while the fourth would work well as a child’s bedroom, nursery or home office. A separate first-floor shower room means there are full bathrooms on both floors.

Outside, the driveway provides off-road parking for 2 vehicles. A secure side lean-to connects the front and rear of the property and offers useful space for bicycles, storage or potential utility use.

The enclosed rear garden has been designed for easy maintenance, with paved seating areas, decking and decorative stone. There is ample room for outdoor dining, children’s play equipment and separate seating areas.

Helston Gardens is well placed for local schools, Reading town centre and Green Park. The Emerald 5 bus service provides access to Reading Station in approximately 15 minutes, while the Buzz 9 links the area with Green Park Station, the Royal Berkshire Hospital and the University of Reading.

Nearby schools include The Palmer Primary Academy, rated Good by Ofsted with Outstanding early-years provision, together with Geoffrey Field Junior School and Reading Girls’ School, which are also rated Good. All are within walking distance of the property
